I wanted to mention that I took some books about depression and I started reading them. Im improving and Im glad. I love this site.
Ive learnt that other peoples emotions dont have to affect me. I also dont have to care if someone doesnt like me.
Ive also learnt that relationships arent black and white. I shouldnt assume anything. Sometimes people have bad days too.
@humorousCamp915 I am very happy about you <3 I hope the growth never stops and you feel better and better!
I am learning to accept myself.
@Fairminded7545 how you see yourself really matters and is sometimes first step to finding happiness, I wish you all the best in the journey <3
I have learned that prolonged stress usually ends in panic attacks.
@Helba I'm glad you have that realization, and I hope it helps you out in the future! We are here for you; thanks for sharing!
It's okay to take time for me.
@hebbycakes I absolutely agree; self care is essential and allows us to care for others down the road. Well done!
Ive learned taking time to to slow down and practice breathing really does help!
@member3333 I'm so glad to hear practicing your breathing has helped you out; it certainly does wonders for many situations. Well done!
Another milestone, yeah me!
@ruffneckred Yay, keep up the great work! :)
'nother milestone, yay! c:
aaaa i guess i've learned that fighting my negative emotions will only make me feel worse?
@Moonberrycat Well done! Indeed, it is hard to fight against negative emotions, and it is difficult to embrace them as well. Acceptance is a critical step in managing them and feeling better.

@sdgreeneyes I'm so proud that you are learning to treat yourself well! It can be hard to practice self care, but it certainly pays off. You being you is certainly enough. Well done!
Repeating can help you relax.
@tidyWater9220 So glad to hear! Do you mind sharing what you mean exactly?
I never realized how I'm not alone in all my issues. Other people are silently suffering just like me. It's nice to be able to talk with people that understand.
@toughScarf6146 Absolutely, even with our differences, we all have our struggles. I'm so glad you have been able to talk with others who understand you. We are always here if you ever need to chat with someone. Well done!
