Day 11. It was a close one today, I need to keep myself busy during the day when I’m not in school. Getting a job should help with that but until then exercise and going to library to write will have to do

:first_quarter_moon_with_face: Evening Check In :first_quarter_moon_with_face:
Day 325
Today has been tiring but overall really good. Had quite a bit of anxiety earlier. Really had to use my tools to bring me out of it. My son had a medical appt today and on top of it all, i really struggled just being around others. Ive been feeling over stimulated with everything needing to be done and with the constant noise and all that, that I didnt even feel like going out but by using my tools and challenging my thinking, we were able to get to his appt. Everything went well today too! Just goes to show that there is no sense in worrying or getting anxious over something that has happened yet. I seriously wasted time this morning stressing over this appt and stressing about dealing with people, only to find out that everything went better than expected!! Did some cleaning today too. Ate well and exercised. Just heading to bed now. Hope everyone has a good night!

Days
86 substance free
3 self harm free
50 no restricting food

Holy crap the internet is a wild place! I stumbled on a video i would have never looked for, or known to look for. An interview with a girl who’s life almost mirrored my own. It really stirred up a lot of memories and emotions. It’s about 12:30am here, and I hope i will be able to sleep tonight. :pray:

I am so grateful!

I have a home
I have a job
I got my diploma and even got some college semesters done
I have children who will never (if i have ANYTHING to say about it) be homeless
I have sobriety from substances (almost 3months! Whoo)

I have made it 50 days not restricting food. I don’t hardly ever reach 2000 cal/day. But i have gotten closer over the days, and for the first month and a half i made it a point to eat each day at least once. (Since then I’ve missed 3 days of eating, but not because of restricting) and i am noticing a decrease in the hyper fixation on calories/anxiety around eating. Which is another thing I am grateful for.

My life is not perfect, and at times I let it get to me. But i am reminded tonight just how far I’ve come from where i was. And i am so happy about the progress! :heart:

I hope everyone has a good day/night :heart::heart:
One day at a time

Day 1522.

Feeling tired and down, but hey, it’s a lot better than it has been. Take what I can get.

Also feeling a bit guilty, because I know I should just focus on being thankful for having somewhere safe to stay, but I’ve been frustrated with the cost of living. I want to live on my own again, but with my fixed income and inability to work, there’s absolutely zero chance to do that independently. I’m fine where I am for now, I’ve made peace with it, but thinking about the future and feeling like I’m stuck here permanently is depressing. Could always be worse, though.

Thanks
