if you want to get better you have to be consistent it takes more than just one day
Today I fully realized what happens to me when I start to feel overwhelmed by the feeling of ALONE and being lonely!
It is just a THOUGHT! It has no basis in reality!
I need to FACT CHACK against reality for distortions because after todays lonliness ...
I lokoked back and saw that I was avoiding calling back my friend that was waiting for me to call her and refusing to text back a friend that had been waiting for me to get back to het since yesterday too.
I learned about automatic thoughts and how to repalce them with healthier ones. Also, that break ups are an opportunity for self-dsicovery that can be very rewarding. I have to be careful not to engage in self-balme though.
Even though it is the holidays and there are events to go to...
if I feel uncomfy or insulted or bad about myself - I do NOT have to stay!
I do not have to or deserve to stay anywhere that makes me feel bad - and I do not have to feel guilt about protecting myself.
@blissedNblessed I agree so much with this. Thanks and I hope your holiday is good. 🙂
@GlenM that i am better than my negative thoughts and thinking processes.
The growth path really helps.
Bt work & the holidays, its amazing that i still have hair. During the short time that i have been onn this site, i learned many things but the most important 1 is that i am not alone. There are many others who go thru the same struggles that i do. Im glad that i have somewhere to go when i just need to vent.
@Mysticuni I completly agree with you my friend. ❤️
Step 140! 👍
During these last 10 growth steps, I went for a short walk with and spent more lunch break time with my work brother SJ because hes leaving for another job to begin the New Year, and Im gonna miss him. 😢 Weve got each others contact info, though 👍
In fact, Im losing TWO coworker friends on New Years Day. SB, the other coworker friend leaving, is going back to her old job and I still have to get her contact info.
