Step 20! :D Most important thing I learned on my way is to have patience. Problems that I thought would take months or years to overcome actually ended after a couple of weeks. I just had to accept the fact that it just needs time.
@H3llfire300 Congrats on Step 20! ^_^ And time really is a major factor when it comes to overcoming obstacles.
I enjoy the thankfulness activities because they help me remember all the good things in my life instead of only thinking about the bad parts all the time.
@nellie13iah Yay! I'm glad you realized this! The good parts always outweigh the bad.
the worst feeling is being around people but feeling alone. sometimes when I'm scared to reach out for help, I close down and in return, become more isolated. if only there were people that I could trust to make sure that I don't shut down and am always flourishing to a degree...
@blueSpruce7735 I think that it is good that you realized what you need for yourself. Just remember that there always great listeners and and awesome community on 7 Cups that are always willing to lend a hand ^_^
@Sageypie life isn't easy and that's what friends are for, if you can find them.
Love this website it has really helped me to relax during a hard time. I especially loved thinking deeply about the things I'm grateful for as it made me appreciate things I might sometimes take for granted. 
@GentleSpirit1696 I am glad that you can relax a little. that always helps :D Appreciation goes a long way :)

The group chat is a great option to see how other people are dealing with things. Opportunities to possibly help someone out in real time is something that's appreciated.

All the best,
I am extremely proud of myself today, I have reached step 1,000 on my growth path. One of the things I have learnt is to practice mindfulness, it is an excellent way to take stock of things and stop the mind running away with itself. I have decided to share this image to start anyone who is new to mindfulness off. Well done to everyone for taking steps on their growth path, be it step 1, 10, 100, 1,000, 10,000 we are all here together.
