Day off to an good start ..

So I couldn’t be prouder of myself to which this morning when getting on the bus I had decided to walk farther down towards the end of the bus to seat, to which I do not typically do because I had always felt uncomfortable and fear to when and if people are looking at me. 😬🙈 and not only that but I had lifted my head a little higher to which help me to build that confidence when walking because usually I keep my head looking down when walking. By slowly pushing myself in lifting my head up it allowed me to know that I have that confidence within me... aiming to achieve those small little things would help show more confidence. this may not seem like a huge thing to be proud of but too me, it’s something that has been an stepping stone to overcome throughout my life.

livinwithanxiety, And you should be proud. That was a big step forward. You accomplished 2 things today, good for you. Walking with my head down was something I did when in the depths of severe anxiety. Lifting your head higher and walking in confidence makes not only you feel good but others in passing as well. Instead of holding my head down in defeat, I now hold my head proudly as I take each step forward and have found that a "smile" goes a long way.

I'm proud of you because I know what it took for you to do this today. :) xx
