I sat outside for a little over an hour and a half.While it was little chilly it wasn't bad.You should see all of the cats around here.One is pregnant again,Anyway it is so nice to sit outside let the breeze going through my hair.Watch the trains go by.I feel so funny like when I do something like this it is so nice to hear people say they are proud of me.Why should we need approval from what we do?It feels like I am a little girl and I need to hear something nice like they are happy and proud of me.Geez I aint no little girl I guess it stems from when I was a little girl.Some people say that I am brave.I dont think I am.Of course my anxieties were pretty bad this morning but instead of sitting inside feeling sorry for myself I decided it was about time for me to get our of my apt.It is strange I could be really angry and sad but when I go outside the feelings of anger and depression seems to not be so bad.I suppose it could be from the sun.,sounds strange considering about 2 years ago I would hav never gone outside.I do find out being outside helps some with my phobia.Some days I wish someone could take me to the Marina and the park they are the same place I have nobody who could do that.So if you are feeling blue try going outside for just a little while it does help some.It is baby steps.Sometimes I even hate coming back inside

Good for you!!! I am proud of you and I think you are brave for facing your emotions and doing something that benefitted you!! Well done!!
I love it when my friends tell me they are proud of me and admire my work. That they respect what I am doing. Blows my mind but it puts a day long smile on my face! And when I say that to them? Even better! It took me a lot of work to get there, to get past the negative and hateful chatter in my head. Please, keep doing what you're doing because it is helping you! __________________ "Love you. Take care of you. Be true to you. You are the only you, you will ever know the best.

You do deserve kudos. Someone without mental illness might not understand how hard it is to get out of bed let alone sit outside. Natural vitamin D is where its at!

The other day it started to rain but I just sat out there anyway .I love the smell of fresh rain and beside rain doesnt bother me,it only lasted for a minute.Besides you take a shower so a little bit of rain wont hurt you.I can only imagine what these people would be think,of me like I am crazy.I love the feel of the rain hitting my face and the wind blowing my hair,To bad they cannot bottle outdoor pills,funny just by going outside I feel better.
