♡ What is something that went well this past week?
I was able to stay in the moment and pack for a no phone off the grid trip im going on!!
♡ What is a positive lesson you learned from something negative that happened this past week?
A possitive lesson I learnt is that in the moment you may think it wont pass but in the reality it will pass.
♡ Who or what is there to support you when you are feeling negative?
My dog for one and my friend
@KarrotCake That trip sounds awesome!
@fairyava
♡ What is something that went well this past week?
I was opening up more to my boyfriend about things upsetting me.
♡ What is a positive lesson you learned from something negative that happened this past week?
When I open up to him, it made it easier for him to know about my problems rather than hiding my feelings.
♡ Who or what is there to support you when you are feeling negative?
My boyfriend because it helps him in helping me become stronger.
@pamharley003
♡ What is something that went well this past week? got some rest and cleaning done
♡ What is a positive lesson you learned from something negative that happened this past week? to keep my head up
♡ Who or what is there to support you when you are feeling negative? ADHD and work stress
@pamharley003 I'm glad you were able to open up more :)
@fairyava when you find a routine that works most of the time, then stick with it especially when the going gets rough.
@fairyava
♡ What is something that went well this past week?
The flood from the 3rd floor that came down into my unit didn't cause much damage, I didn't have to leave or move out, and no work needed to be done. Because I caught it in time, after only a few hours, and was able to clean up/dry the ceiling out on my 1st floor rental place ok. They only need to paint! No mold, and I didn't get sick!
♡ What is a positive lesson you learned from something negative that happened this past week?
I worried only for a few moments about the water leak, then caught myself and was mindful of my negative emotions. I really didn't have enough information to know if I would have to move, so I just remained calm, patient, and waited until the inspector came and the landlord said no problem. Things didn't escalate. Mindfulness helped me!
♡ Who or what is there to support you when you are feeling negative?
My friends that I call, and I can always come here and try to fight for a listener's attention if they give it. The mindfulness group is very reliable and I always feel better after a mindfulness meeting! Too bad they're only twice a week. My trombone and the pool out back and ocean out front are also there for me, and so is my unending music collection, and those things help too! Took a walk yesterday at a new park too and that felt great and changed my mental state from lonely and frustrated to neutral.
I had a great weekend with my boyfriend, celebrating his birthday!
I learned that if someone is mad at me, it's okay. Things will work out and, honestly, it's not always 100% because I did something wrong.
My boyfriend is there to support me and I couldn't be more thankful.
@fairyava
♡ What is something that went well this past week?
This week was sunny. I believe that the weather was more than well, it was spectacular!
♡ What is a positive lesson you learned from something negative that happened this past week?
I learnt to worry less about the outcome of situations and go ahead and dive into tasks.
♡ Who or what is there to support you when you are feeling negative?
I have a wonderful support system in my family, amazing friends. I am also close to God and he strengthens me most.
@PetiteSouris I'm so happy the last week went well for you!
♡ What is something that went well this past week?
My son returned home and despite how nervous I was, things are going spledidly. I missed him so much.
♡ What is a positive lesson you learned from something negative that happened this past week?
I learned that sometimes I need to put the technology away in order to make hubby feel loved.
♡ Who or what is there to support you when you are feeling negative?
When I'm feeling down, my husband is there to remind me that perspective is everything.
@fairyava
♡ What is something that went well this past week?
Something that went well was that I kept taking care of me even at my darkest days
♡ What is a positive lesson you learned from something negative that happened this past week?
I learnt that just because you are having bad feelings for yourself doesnt mean that people around you feel the same
♡ Who or what is there to support you when you are feeling negative?
7 cups has been here since i started struggling so some of my friends in here are the support i have
@SmileyPower I'm glad you have people here to support you! And I'm proud of you for taking care of yourself.
@fairyava
Thank you so much! Means a lot
@fairyava
♡ What is something that went well this past week?
I was able to talk to very kind, wonderful and strong people through this platform this week. I also spent some quality time with my friends.
♡ What is a positive lesson you learned from something negative that happened this past week?
Things were not going my way and I was over thinking a lot of things, I learned that if we worry about the things that need to be done, it does more harm than good. It's better to be hopeful, go with the flow and try our best.
♡ Who or what is there to support you when you are feeling negative?
The positive voice inside of me and the sense of purpose I feel by having the priveledge of being able to help other people makes me feel motivated whenever I'm in a dark place.
@fairyava
♡ What is something that went well this past week?
I managed to be self confident and was open with myself to others that should have know weeks before.
♡ What is a positive lesson you learned from something negative that happened this past week?
I learnt that your path constantly changes and it can change at any moment. Therefore if you really wanted to get somewhere you would always have your unique path.
♡ Who or what is there to support you when you are feeling negative?
When Im feeling negative my best friends are there for me the most.
