This is a great idea...we often forget the good things and to be grateful . Thank you starlight !

I am so grateful today, it has been a good day for me. I’ve been for a walk and that was a peaceful walk. I have also been surprised by being invited to a concert tomorrow evening with a nights stay in a hotel after the concert 😄 I feel so grateful right now!!,

Grateful for starlight starting this post as I get to tell you my good news 😊

That’s great news Olivia! Sounds like a good time!

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Oh and I will be very grateful if I cope ok with it all...anxiety is high around going...I wont be alone so should be ok. It’s been well thought out...I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t anxious about it all...

I’m praying everything will be ok 🙏

Will definitely reply here on how it goes 🌺

My basement flooded and I’m thankful that I don’t trust narcissists and I was smart enough to know better than to listen to him “my basement never gets wet”.... any basement can get wet!!! So ignoring his opinion, I decided to elevate ALL OF my personal property on pallets! I’m upset it all had to be stored there in the first place, I was not told I would live here for months before the house was ready enough for me to move my stuff in to the living areas!!! Smh... thank you brain 🧠 and intuitive knowledge of B.S. artists!

[Hidden in reply to Angelfox2002]

I love this ! 💕 I don’t love that your basement flooded but that you are so smart and you have things to be grateful for, in amongst all of that.

Well done you ! Xx🌺🌼🌺🌼

Hi Starr, sounds like you're feeling better? That's great!!! You'll always have support here. I've had a couple of decent days, today is so far so good? I woke up with my body feeling like it was on Fire and upset stomach ache which is a Red Flag that my anxiety was starting? I tried not to let it progress, saying positive things to calm myself. It's helped, though I feel alittle anxious.

Well you take care and keep in touch☺️🙏

[Starrlight in reply to Want2BHappy3]

Was feeling so great today but just had company over and soon again having another group of company which stresses me but will be okay. Good that you said positive calming things to yourself. I will try that. And I will picture good times ahead. Best to you hope you can smush down that bit of anxiety.

[Starrlight in reply to Want2BHappy3]

Hope today is s good one for ya!

[Want2BHappy3 in reply to Starrlight]

Thank you, I hope your feeling better?

[Starrlight in reply to Want2BHappy3]

Blah lol 😆 just blah. Thanks Want2BHappy3!

[Want2BHappy3 in reply to Starrlight]

Hi Starr, I've had 5 successful days without anxiety ☺️. I'm cautiously optimistic 🙄. Been Praying Real Hard 🙏🙏🙏. The down side is because I've spent so much time in bed out of shape,, being out and about has been hurting me physically😞

[Starrlight in reply to Want2BHappy3]

That is amazing and I am so happy for you and hope your body will get used to it after a bit.

[Want2BHappy3 in reply to Starrlight]

Thanks me too, I wish the BEST for you and your family ☺️🙏

[Nlc72]

These past couple weeks have been extremely hard for me. As soon as I wake up I start to worry and my anxiety flares. Mostly about my health... There’s always something wrong with me. Why can’t I just be normal?!!! But even though I’m struggling... I am grateful for my loving husband who puts up with my issues and comforts me. I am also grateful for my son. If it wasn’t for him my addiction would’ve taken over my life.

[Hidden in reply to Nlc72]

Hi Nic.

So sorry to hear of your struggles and the difficulties you face.

It’s really nice to hear about your husband and son and out of the awful things we experience , there are some things to be grateful for.

Best wishes to you 🌺🌼🌺🌼

[hisipiki]

I am grateful for being rejected an offer today

[Hidden]

Please tell me more about your grounding techniques. Thanks.

[Starrlight]

Hi ! I have a list of grounding techniques in which some work some of the time. I also have reminders that I have a guide that I see beauty everywhere and I am free. I need to be sticking positive reminders and affirmations around the house.

So I have a whole list of what is beautiful to me which helps me feel safe, positive, brighter, lighter.

I have another long list of things I can do when I feel on edge like I can say a prayer or an affirmation, I can try deep breathing or happy place visualizations, see a movie...

Do you want me to write out either of those lists there? Let me know. 😊

[Msteacher]

I am grateful for the ability to keep going and the willingness to never give up

I am grateful for my new founds friends in this community that give me so much hope
