progress is real

I’ve been in therapy for more than a year now and can i just say that you don’t realise the progress you’re making until you look back at what you used to be like.

I’m bored at home (corona virus-go figure) and decided to sign back into this website and read some of my old posts from last year.

It surprised me how dark a place i was in than, and looking back at it now and remembering how i felt like nothing was ever going to get better- it gives me a lot of hope.

I remember what i was thinking when i made those posts and it really just showed me that although it does take time, things improve. And i know that sounds incredibly cheesy but holy damn.

I still have bad days but i have good days too and i don’t feel nearly as lost and hopeless as i did back than and i’m so proud of myself for getting through it.

For anyone who’s going through a particularly rough patch, it’s the absolute worst and it feels like your whole worlds collapsing in on you and you don’t even feel like yourself anymore and everything just feels awful, but if you try your best to get better and give it time, and patience, eventually things will turn out okay and it’s beautiful.

🙂

if anyone needs someone to talk to please tag me, i’m genuinely terrible at remembering to reply but i’ll try my best.

Hey @Sammyye! It’s been forever!

I’m so glad that you find everything is getting so much better, and I hope to see you around the forums more often now. 🙂

How have you been holding up, with being home?
I;ve been looking at my mum’s facebook pages with her, and we’ve found so many cool things to do at home, despite being confined to the house property. 🙂

Hey @Sammyye it's really nice to hear from you and read about how things have improved for you. One of the cool things about being on a forum like this, is that you can really see how you've progressed over time. It's good practise to reflect on how far you've come Heart 

 

Also, thanks for spreading some positivity in regards to the uncertain times we are living through! I know lots of people here will appreciate that, myself included. FYI we have a self-care at home thread here that you might like to look at, considering you're bored at home 🙂
