Peace

[dwhp]

Hi Everyone! I've joined this community almost one year ago. I was desperate, suffocated, lost, confused, hurt, and broken hearted. I looked for answers every where. I went to therapy for nine months. I learned about my own traumas, triggers, fears, insecurities, and the unknown.

Today I am at peace.

I am recovering and healing. I chose to let go all the things/people that disrupt my well-being. I am grateful for the community's support when i've reached out and got comfort.

I am here to help when I can. I hope that we continue our fight to get to where we want to be. Here's my reward for a three mile hike. Hope you're rewarded with what lights up your face.

Be well!

Congratulations dwhp in finding peace in your heart and mind.

Your picture is beautiful and shows that the sky is the limit in what

we can achieve in life. You believed in yourself and pursued the so

called "Impossible" Dream and made it "I M Possible"

As you walk ahead on your journey a little taller, a little prouder, please

remember that you had what it takes to win. Anxiety no longer has a

chance. Wishing you Peace and Calm xx

Did you have anything specific that you had to let go dwhp or things you worked on in therapy that really made a difference? I like to hear the details of success stories.

Hi LFA41,

I had to let go a lot of things. eg my relationship with my mom and coworkers. they were too toxic and i no longer wanted to sacrifice my wellbeing to continue relationships with them. i realized that once I got rid of them, the anxiety and depression went away. They kept triggering me and I thought if I held on, things would change but nothing changed cuz they don't change. the only I can do is change myself, which is to chose healthier options for myself. i refuse to sit in shit as they say and get myself out of the hole I was in.

every day i live won't be repeated so i don't want to waste another second on being miserable. i choose happiness.

Lovely photo and post, isn't it wonderful to be at peace.

hi designguy! Funny i was always just one step from peace. I look back at my journal entries and realize I kept looking for answers in the wrong place. Once I stepped away from wanting love and attention from the wrong people in my life, peace emerged.

Really good awareness on your part, that is really good healthy growth. Realizing that we are already ok and the immense value of accepting ourselves as we are, warts and all is very freeing.
