I don't know whether its the starting of a new year or simply a coincidence that after really long I'm feeling like myself, I met my frds on 31st, I baked stuff, enrolled myself in two academic courses which I was planning to join for a really long time, joined a trial meditation new year challenge on 10 percent happier and lastly after a lot of self loathing over gaining 9-10 kgs in the last 6 months I have decided to start riding my spin bike from tomorrow n do something abt it. I know you might be thinking that its just the new year high where people make resolutions n plan stuff which they never follow through, but like I said for me its a mere coincidence, atlast from last few days I have started getting back on track and I feel atlast that I can do it n that being in bed day after day got me nothing except misery. And I want to thank this platform for this improvement in me, people here have been really understanding and patient. I even made a very good frd here who is one of the real reason that I have again started feeling like myself and have got some courage to get my life back on track.

I hope like me many of you also took that one step in the right direction. Do share what did you do to change ur situation, it can be just getting up from bed after days, gng out n sitting in sun, reading a book, meeting a frd, joining something. Tell me d one step you took and we all can cheer and support each other for it 😁🥰🎈☀️🌈

Ok. I had to take a break honestly because it was so intense. However, I feel pretty hopeful. My therapist told me she wished that I would go slower in my healing process. Ah. To feel this stuff! It's nice to feel like I can choose to be me at this moment. I wish this serenity to others.

I turned all my fears and worries over to God, prayed constantly, say the rosary each night, attend church each week and have never been so at peace in my entire life.God is the way .

Yes I agree with you that a belief system is necessary to pe at peace in life. No matter what one have faith in, its necessary to keep life balanced.

I have started getting to bed earlier (before 3am) and getting up earlier. I finally have a prttime job and have been meditating. I don't think this year counts on the new year's resolution dilution scale. 2020 sucked for just about everyone.

There is a great weight lifted, even if we are still to get out from under the covid virus. It is a new beginning in many ways and I believe it gives us wings that we did not have before. Also, I think that whatever issues we have had in the past became so bad this past year that some of us could see the worst of it start to lift. This can make us more aware of the good things we have. We now can appreciate the smaller things that we can do. It is a wonderful thing that we should nurture through meditation, exercise and making sure we continue to participate in life!

I know there are many of us who still are experiencing deep depression and anxiety and I am not saying you are not important or that your feelings are not real, just that this change can make the world feel a bit lighter for some and that is real too.

Happy 2021!
