[xXLexi_Lou122Xx]

1. I have artistic abilities that people admire a lot.
2. I can dance, sing, play musical instruments, and perform.

3. I may feel sad and worthless at times, but I know that I will be okay.

// Nothing is impossible. The word itself says "I'm Possible" //

I need some positivity today so:

1. My love of LEGOs. Specifically spinning lego ninjas
2. My love of food. I like it okay? I like food.
3. I'm a writer. And I'm not all that bad either.

A: one thing I like about myself is the fact that I'm easy to talk to about problems and giving advice even if I haven't experienced it myself. 

(honestly this took me a while to think about it and eventualy I couldn't think of anything so I messaged one of my friends and thats what she said about me!)

Great that this thread got you thinking @ruthxxx. It can be hard for us to see the positives in ourselves, so well done! Just so you know, I merged your thread into this topic as we already have a topic for things that you like about yourself. No big deal! It might be helpful for you to have a look through the well-being threads that we already have as it seems like you are really loving these You can have a look here. This thread is about three things you like.. rather than one.. so I challenge you to think of two more! No pressure if you can't, I just thought it might be another great exercise to get you thinking. You can continue to post here as much as you like by clicking 'quick reply' or 'reply' under someone's comment  Some people do some of these exercises daily.

Going to revive this amazing thread!

Three things I like about myself:

1. I love learning and try to stay open to new ideas and ways of thinking

2. I value family and friends, and am very loyal

3. I like that despite a long and very difficult journey with mental health, I am happy with the person the hardship has helped me become and the learnings from that journey I can use to help others

This is such a great thread, thanks so much for reviving it @Jess1-RO !! 

It's funny, I actually found this really hard! It goes to show how little we tend to focus on what we like about ourselves, and I know I feel a bit awkward posting this- but that goes to show how important it is!

I'm also going to offer a friendly challenge to a few of our members to see if they'd like to post theirs @Bananatime04 , @MB95 , @Tiny_leaf , @Tay100 , @Hozzles ! 

Here's mine:

1. I'm a really loyal friend, and will always try and check in with the people I love when I know that they might be having a rough time. 

2. Sometimes when I can't think of words for someone who's having a tough time I will convery my love and support through cooking - I love baking for people, and will often try and make meals for friends who are going through a bad time with their families. 

3. I  love pretty much all music, so if anyone ever wants to share music with someone, or have someone to sing along with them in a car, or a gig buddy, I am there! I've met lots of my favourite friends through live music. 

Whew, that was actually quite weird and hard to do, thanks so much for reviving this @Jess-RO !!

Thanks for the tag @Janine-RO! I also suck at positive self-reflective tasks like this...like I know what I'm qualified and competent in from an objective standpoint, but I struggle to compliment myself on the holistic things...so here goes!

1. I am always intellectually inclined, and I love that I want to and actually do seek out intellectual stimulation and feed my curiosity for topics of interest whether that be by social media, online species, documentaries, articles etc.

2. I try to be a very reliable person and make time for everyone in my life as a way of showing that I value them and want to be there for them; I guess it's also good for everyone's social health and not just mine.

3. I try to prioritise my health and wellbeing as much as possible so that I can give back to my community, whether that be in online spaces like this or irl! Giving back in a way that is meaningful and authentic to me is important.
