@diegoluis, Congratulations on making it to step 60! :) I'm so glad to hear you have found a way to relax yourself. That's so very important. You're making great progress!
I give up :)
@Norbert, I'm sorry to hear this. You were doing so well! Please remember you can always connect with a listener if you need some support. We would love to help you get back on your feet. I know you can do it. We all believe in you :)
I just made it to #10. I know that isn't very far, but this is a big deal for me to reach for help in any way. I have learned that it is ok and normal to need help.
@CovertVirus, Congratulations on making it to step 10! :) Even though it doesn't seem like much, every achievement is still an achievement. You should feel proud of yourself for getting this far, because it truly is amazing :) You're making great progress!
I'm learning that i'm quick to judge, slow to forgive and in the end its me that it hurts.
@technerd86, Acknowledging what you're doing wrong to hurt yourself is the first and most important step. These are things you can fix, and you can start to feel better. Keep your chin up, and remember that we are all here for you.
Step 180. Learned that I need to open my mind more on a spiritual level.

Having just started this, so far I've listened to two mindfulness exercises. I've realized I don't know how to "shut off" the stress part of my brain. If I don't repeat over and over in my head what I'm supposed to be doing, or focus on every single syllable of what the recording is saying, I can't focus. I don't know what it means to "be kind" to myself during breathing and meditation.
@MoonOak20698, Figuring out what's "wrong" can sometimes be the hardest part, but it seems as though you've figured it out! That's one of the first and most important steps. I want you to know that this is something you can change and fix. Just keep trying. I believe in you.
I'm learning to be more mindful. Circumstances do not create emotions, only thoughts create emotions.
@optimisticPear2555, I'm glad you're learning to be more mindful, and I'm glad to hear that it's been helpful. You're making great progress! :)
