Good news?
I have been so lost and so depressed lately, and something that brings me joy during this darkness is hearing other people’s wins and excitements. What is something that made you smile recently, or something you are proud of?
@Catlady41 Something that made me smile today,was coming across your post and seeing your wonderful profile picture. 🙂 Such a dapper looking cat!
@mytwistedsoul now that made me smile! Thank you, he is a fancy boy for sure 😊 thank you for this, I’m glad he made you smile.
@Catlady41 I'm glad you smiled too! He is a very handsome guy!
My best friend and I patched things up. I missed her so much, but I'm so happy we're good. I hope you found something that made you smile or proud
@passionatethinker3248 this makes me so happy for you! 😊
Persevering through a challenge
@amiableandempathetic yes!!! Great job, I’m glad you preserved through! 😊
@Catlady41 I have recently learned to say no more to abuse and no more to the trauma bond! Its a start. Baby steps every day. :) I love everyone's' wins that I have read. We CAN do this.
@tangiblesoul
🙌 That's a big one. You're right baby steps everyday.
@tangiblesoul I am so proud of you! I made a similar decision recently. It may seem hard at times, but truly is an empowering moment. You can do this. WE can do this!
@Catlady41 I finally motivated myself to be happy with the reality and to fix my messed up routine lolll
@wonderfulpeace7423 that is AMAZING! Gaining acceptance and clarity can almost be the most difficult part- but you did it! I am so happy for you.
Hi...I, too, like your kitty's picture! I have several kitties and it helps to hear them purring and I think they are saying they are happy with their lives ❤
@helpfulpear7266 hi! Thank you! You are so correct- in times of distress I like to look over at my cat. He’s so happy, it’s such a reflection of our hearts. Your kitties are so lucky to have you!
I was in a very long depression period. What helps me is to try my best to withstand the emotion, create and focus on small goals and rely on them as achievements which raise me up gradually.
@ltduyhien small goals can be HUGE achievements. I am so proud of you, and happy you see it this way!
Aw… good on you for wanting to focus on positive things! My great aunt just turned 90, I couldn’t travel to her, but I sent her the brightest bouquet of flowers I could afford plus chocolates. I hope she likes them, she’s wonderful.
@lightness1111 Happy Birthday to your great aunt! What a special gift, I’m sure they were beautiful and very well received. 😊
@Catlady41
Hey, I am sorry you are feeling this way, if you need someone to talk to, I am more than happy to help. Something that made me smile recently is seeing an old lady singing to a birthday song for her friend, I thought that was cute.
@lamiyamhd thank you for extending your support- this means a lot. Today is already a better day than yesterday. :) this made me smile too! Im happy you experienced that, and am glad you shared here as well!
