Milestones or Steps Completed! Share and Celebrate Here :)

I am happy to be moving towards my goals even if those close to me do not support me

Reached Milestone 110:

Talking to myself as though I am speaking to a friend has been very helpful.

Over 100 pretty helpful.

dark times always pass. Would be easier to just trust this instead of freaking out.

Step 50: one thing I've learned is that worrying about things that you can't control is pointless

Im slowly moving forwards and most days go well but there are patches when I struggle to cope. Its been difficult to carry everything alone; work, children, household and finances. I miss having a partner to share the good times as well as the daily burdens. I dont miss the emotional abuse and do know Im better off without him as sad as that makes me at times. Its been 6 months. It is a relief not having to second guess his meaning and to watch for signs of suicide attempts. Each day is a new beginning.

I've reached step fifty. Honestly, taking all of these steps has helped me quite a bit. Easy breathing is one of the main things that has helped me. Thank you 7 cups for being here!

Step 300! I've been on this journey for awhile now and I've learned a lot. I dont really know what to say..... I've been okay for awhile now. I mean, sure, I have my bad days but they don't last. I don't think I'd say I'm happy, I'm not there yet, but at least in not sad anymore.I hope anyone who reads this who is at the beginning of their steps or who's in a dark place sees that there is hope and that it won't always be bad days. I love you all, stay safe.

Recovery is possible

@GlenM I accept and forgive myself.
