yes, I do! more and more these days. I have had a few tough days recently,where some of my emotional crap/old patterns came up, but I said to myself, hey, woman, use your new, better coping tools, use what you've learned, have compassion on yourself/your mistakes, etc, and deal with this in a healthy way - because you CAN and you need to!
I don't expect all pain/negativity/struggle to be eliminated anymore, and I recognize that for me it won't be (the whole depressive tendencies, my personality, thinking style, etc) because I know that expectation makes no sense, but I do expect myself to deal with it in healthy ways, because I understand now that I am able and capable of doing that without being overwhelmed by it/obsessing on it.
