I am grateful that the crippling anxiety and panic attacks that used to hold me back from life have disappeared.
I am grateful that I know how I got rid of them and am able to explain that to people who currently suffer in hopes they can help themselves too.
I am grateful to be invited out with friends, I am grateful to have friends!
I am grateful to be open-minded and have been willing to go to a bluegrass live show last night. It was amazing, so good I bought their vinyl can’t wait to listen to it while I clean my house!
I am grateful that I am learning that participation is a huge positive influence in recovery. That pushing myself out of my comfort zone, especially around food, (going to restaurants, going to potlucks) is why I am seeing growth there.
I am grateful for @PaigeTurner and her willingness to look at herself. It’s hard stuff, really hard but wow the benefits I am reaping are beyond words, my friend. 
I am grateful that I can notice when old behaviors start to want to creep back in. It’s easier to act in those manners. I know they worked for me before, I know I got what I wanted when I wanted it. I keep reminding myself to not behave that way and to be patient. I remind myself to trust that my higher power will direct my life in a way that suits me best and that MY WAY WILL NOT END UP WORKING!!! I want my life to work, I am so fucking sick of struggling.
I am grateful that my struggles, although have been difficult and I have at times been fighting for my life, have not been as difficult as others.
I am grateful my Dad’s cancer is not active right now
I am grateful my mom is in good health.
I am grateful my daughter’s mental health is better than it used to be.
I am grateful I am alive.
Grateful for this forum. Grateful i downloaded it on a whim and ignored it until a random notification came up five days later and it felt like a message from myself.
Grateful for the air that feels good. My house im in, roommates i feel safe around, my family, the skills i can still learn, the people still in my life despite my serious bullshit.
Im grateful i have the discipline to keep practicing art. and hopeful i can have the discipline to keep practicing sobriety.
Grateful for poetry and books and film, and things i can enjoy sober. Good coffee and tea. Bread and cheese. Berries and oranges.
Grateful to be alive and safe in this terrifying world, and to have the resources to help others a little bit as they help me.
I’m grateful today that my head is better after the weather induced migraine. That the severe weather didn’t cause too much damage here and that I can grieve for people, including two little ones, who lost their lives to the massive tornado west of us. I’m grateful my heart can break but it still beats with love for humanity. I’m grateful for some rest today after listening to that freight train outside last night - it was scary and we spent some time in the basement when the tornado sirens went off. I’m grateful for my basement. I’m grateful it didn’t flood and hasn’t flooded this spring so far.
I’m grateful for getting through pain and fear with the love and support of my husband.
God Lord I’m glad your ok Rosa.
Kelly mentioned a winter tornado event but I couldn’t remember where. Holy shit! I’m grateful you have a cellar. That must have been pretty scary.
God Bless
Thanks amigo. Grateful today for sure.
Happy Sunday night gratidudes
I’m grateful for everyone checking in on me and your kind messages. I have been taking some time to take care of myself and my family. I promise I will get back to you. Your words make me feel loved and so much less alone. I’m able to take care of myself and others largely because of things I have learned from you all 
I’m grateful for Ian and his kind heart, it’s the kindest one I have ever known
I’m grateful for my mom
I’m grateful that I have so much to be thankful for-
A safe home, food to eat, clothes, water to drink, a neighborhood that I feel comfortable and looked after in. All things that people right now are fighting to defend. I’m grateful for what I have and I’m praying for people who are lost and scared.
I’m grateful for my body. That it allows me to run, walk, swim, and move freely.
I’m grateful for Rue, she is my angel every single day.
I’m grateful I ordered my groceries for the week so I could talk to my friend tonight instead. I’m grateful that I was able to be there for her to cry and talk with.
I’m grateful I skipped squats tonight, simply because that is what my body was telling me I needed. I’m grateful I’m more in tune with her these days.
I’m grateful for the giving nature of humanity. It fills my heart that people will do what they can to help others. It makes me cry with hope and love for our species.
I believe in miracles. I believe I am one. I believe we all are.
I’m grateful for meditation, the beauty of nature,
silence, wind, movement, books, music, poetry, kind humans- all of which kept me strong this past week and going into a new one tomorrow.
Sending love to you all, sweet dreams

I am grateful… 
I am grateful… 
I am grateful… 
I am grateful… 
I’m grateful for another night of great sleep and for delicious coffee in the morning.
I’m grateful for stories of gratitude, love, and compassion. I’m grateful for empathetic people and small kindnesses. These are the qualities I’m trying to focus on. The world feels dark right now but there are still beautiful days and good people.
I’m grateful that despite the fear and terror in the world, we can still come on here and be grateful for things. We can still be grateful for this world, flawed as it is.
Good morning all,
I’m grateful for a nice weekend with the family. I’m grateful for the sunrise this morning. I’m grateful for a job that pays the bills. I’m grateful for change, even if it’s scary. I’m grateful for exercise and that my body lets me. Everyone have a wonderful day
I’m grateful for that post by @anon52066378 on checking in #39 (If you haven’t read it yet, it’s so powerful to start your week with, truly amazing).
I’m thankful for my beautiful wife and my boys. From where i came from to what i’ve tried to do to my life, to what i have now… IS A FREAKING MIRACLE. No other way to look at it.
I’m thankful to my god Jehovah, for always pointing me in the right direction.
I’m thankful that i have a job and coworkers i like.
I’m thankful for finally using my magnesium supplement and getting sleep 3 straight nights while remembering all my dreams, which is insane.
I’m thankful for my dad, who’s still alive and fighting to be in my kids lives.
I’m thankful for my mom, in her old age she’s still going strong.
I’m thankful again for my wife, cause taking care of 2 boys all day has to be rough, and she does it with grace, love, and patience.
Thankful for TS community, which has aided me in changing my life.
I’m grateful for making another healthy decision for myself this morning:
I found a bottle of wine that was peeking out from under my bed right now when I was unplugging my space heater and I was extremely upset and shouted “NO!” I called my husband and dumped it down the drain, with him on the phone, and felt liberated. I’m gaining more self-respect and self-love. I’m ecstatic that I was upset instead of excited like I used to be (when I’d find alcohol I’d hidden before). I finally feel that I’m ready to be on the road of lifelong recovery. Been waiting for this for a loooooooong time.
I’m grateful I woke up feeling very sad and burdened with a heavy heart and just going through the motions this morning doing my same ol same, same ol, same ol, shit I “Get 
To Do,” every morning. I grateful I been thinking and praying about the suffering right here at TS and the suffering in Ukraine.
Im grateful I got to read my first devotional reading.
Im grateful I got to read my chapter or section in Codependent No More.
Im grateful I’m still reading about detachment. There’s a lot to read. I’m grateful I can use detachment preferably with love about situations and it doesn’t have to be detachment from a particular person. In this crazy awful mixed up hateful evil world I cannot learn too much about detachment. Preferably with love. If not with love then detachment with anger is ok for now. It’s a start.
I’m grateful after my readings this morning I felt better.
I’m grateful I already had Benson on my lap.
I’m grateful Alice is on my lap. I’m grateful she can still jump up on me in my chair with the ease and grace of a cat. The way it should be.
I’m grateful I enjoyed watching Winning Time, a series about the Los Angeles Lakers at the beginning of the 80’s my favorite time in basketball. I hated the Lakers. 
I’m grateful my wife will be happy with the unexpected light dusting of snow we got last night 
I’m grateful for the serenity prayer.
I’m grateful for my house and home and pets and wife and kids, long distance and friends, long distance.
I’m grateful I called my best childhood friend yesterday. He’s already a grandpa of 16 months.
I’m grateful I left Julie a voice message yesterday too.
I’m grateful for y’all.
Detach. Detach in love or detach in anger but strive for detachment. I know it’s difficult, but it will become easier with practice. If you can’t let go completely, try to “hang on loose.” Relax. Sit back. Now, take a deep breath. The focus is on you.
And to steal a page from my buddy. Ya You! 
Codependent No More
Heading into my first class tomorrow and I am having some anxiety around it. I haven’t been in a heated room for 5 years.
I am grateful to know you survived yours which means I will probably survive mine too.
I am grateful that I was honest last night in my share and called myself out on my own shit. ( it’s hard to bullshit a bullshitter, Stella)
I am grateful that although I acted out on some ED rituals and the thoughts are starting to seep in I am accepting them and working through the anxiety.
I am grateful for therapy and the skills I have learned.
I am grateful to be thought of as a person who can be trusted with deep personal information.
I am grateful that I am learning how much information is suitable to share with different people. I used to class everyone together under “NEVER TRUST”.
I am grateful that I am learning to really let go. My whole life people have thought they knew me. I have been very good at showing enough of myself that everyone was satisfied that they were close enough. Nobody knew me at all. I find myself sitting back still, in this comfortable place watching others get very vulnerable and I admire them. I wonder how they can be so brave to stand in a room of potential threat with no armour on.
I am grateful to be learning from these people and to be a witness to their courage. I am not there yet, but I am sure my day will come.
I am grateful that I am teachable and that my thirst for knowledge seems insatiable. All that I want out of this life, is to live my days raising my spiritual awareness.
I am grateful to be able to do that in so many different ways.
Thank you for the part you all play in my recovery.
