Since last week's debacle I've been on a mission to shed my label.

I've started an exercise regimen, tearing out plants and putting in new, landscaping my yard and helping out neighbors with projects they have in their yards.

I've been feeling better about myself, lost 5 lbs in one week (and will lose more), seeing the fruits of my labor in the yard excites me for what it will look like next year and beyond. I'm feeling good about myself and nobody is going to take me down again.๐Ÿ™‚๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿคœ๐Ÿค›๐Ÿ’ช๐ŸŒป

Excellent!!

Go You. One of the keys to our mental health is to not give power to people that can't show respect, remove toxicity.

Enjoy the things you have going on. Sounds great

Thank you. I guess I just have to try to use positive vibes not negative ones

I know I don't show alot of affection to others. But I aim to try to change that and focus on the good of people

You are correct. I was raised by a narcissist. I was a victim of childhood emotional neglect.

I left the toxic environment. I've had many years of therapy. I do understand

Please don't overdo it, take it slowly, if you rush it, the feeling can wear off and let you down again.

Slow and steady, build up to more as you first consolidate what you have already achieved.

Cheers, Midori
