I would love to hear updates. I hope you all are managing through and have a good week ahead. We are always here for you <3

Here are some reflections for the week
❀How have you been doing lately? The good? The challenges? ❀
❀ Reflect on your self talk. Do you have any negative self-talk which you repeat regularly when things go wrong? What could you say instead to yourself so that this unhelpful talk would not hurt you in future anymore?❀
❀ What is your favorite quote or mantra? ❀
We hope you all have a wonderful week. I look forward to hearing everyone’s responses, and please don't hesitate to reach out for support.

Hello all! Thank you for welcoming me into this community. I am so humbled to be here. This is such a cute and awesome forum. I love the idea :)
-I have been doing fairly well lately; I can definitely relate to the author as I also just switched universities and the transition wasn't as smooth as I would have like it. Despite that, I am very excited about the time I have been able to spend here on 7 cups and also put efforts towards my person goals.
-I still find myself engaging in negative talk sometimes. Often my thinking tends to be all-or-nothing thinking and is extremely irrational. On a good day, I recognize this ;) Occasionally, I get wrapped up in the feelings of inadequacy and perceived rejection (and maybe loneliness as I withdraw when I really want comfort). During these moments, I could tell myself that I am always doing the best of my abilities with the resources that I have at any given time and hindsight is 20/20. My body nor my weight or my grades define me or my worth. What could I do differently to support my goals in the future? How can I learn from my mistakes so I can succeed? My body empowers me to do the things I love. NAMI has some amazing resources on Reframing Negative Self Talk! I encourage everyone to check it out <3 https://www.namichicago.org/blog/selfcarefriday-on-positive-self-talk
The quote on my Notion Dashboard right now is,
"And you doubting your potential is like the sun doubting it’s power to burn everything it touches” - Sehajal"
I can't wait to get to meet you all,
Best Wishes,
Empathy. ~

Hello Empathy! Welcome to our community, its lovely to meet you. Thanks so much for joining our weekly checkin.
Its great to hear that you are doing well. I can completely relate to all the ups and downs of transferring universities. It is not easy task. Even on the best days there are a lot of challenges. I hope that with time everything will fall into place for you. Until then know that we are here for you every step of the way. You are not alone.
I love you refection on self talk. It can be so hard to recognize these thoughts patterns and then switch them more positive. While switching the is hard I really like the alternative phrases you use. Every small step is a step in the right direction. You are doing an amazing job. I hope that you have an amazing week ahead.
