I'm Proud of Myself Because...
I haven't quit my job yet. I've been dealing with a lot of stress at my recent job but it's gotten a bit better so I"m glad I haven't quit it yet.
I know how you feel, I have a lot of stress with my work as well. I know I need a new job but I feel like they need me, and I don't just wanna ya know give them the finger and leave if that makes sense.
@NiemiFan31 Honestly, the job isn't terrible. It's just for a while we didn't have enough people. Plus, people kept quitting.
I have beaten incredible odds in my life. I was in a wheelchair for 17 years and now I am doing 10 k's (walking, not running) Fivers are too easy for me now. Five years ago I weighed 315 pounds, and I've lost 155 of those, and I am still losing. Most of all, at the moment, I am proud of myself for not pulling the plug on my life because I was in too much anguish. I may hit bottom with depression occasionally, and grab that plug, but I seem to do what I need in the moment to survive. I find reasons for being, even if I don't really want to BE at all right then. I know I won't feel that way all the time.
I am so proud of you for doing the right thing for yourself. Your story will motivate a lot people to have a positive outlook in life.
My job is much the same. I love the job but the people are hard to get along with. I'm proud of myself because I do a good job even though it kinda sucks sometimes.
I have completed college and became the first in my family to graduate. I just got my diploma in the mail yesterday!
Congratulations!!! Keep it up!
i actually talked to someone for the past three days
Congratulations to you on this. I know how hard it can be when you're dealing with something difficult to talk to someone. They say one of the most common symptoms of depression is withdrawing from people. But when you do reach out, you often find that people are happy to listen and help.
That's awesome! I'm so proud of you. *virtual hugs*
