I would really like to start an accomplishment thread. Sometimes we overlook the positive things we have done today
I’ll start.

Today I went into work early so that I can catch up on my work…which in turn lowers my stress level , and makes me feel like I can conquer anything that comes my way

Today just getting out of bed was an accomplishment for me. So far, I did dishes, a load of laundry and walked the dogs. Better than hiding in bed.

Tried to say positive things to my mom because she is old and didn't want to tax the heart.

I forced myself out of bed and completed my morning walk in the park.

I actually spoke to two people who were walking their dogs.

Dogs seem to give me a way of relating, first pet thje dog and then tell the owner that s/he has a pretty dog and at least we exchange smiles have a nice day - etc. and the dog gets some petting.

I'm 98% agoraphobic due to my crippling anxiety. I got out of the house alone this morning to the Starschmucks a block and 1/2 away and stayed for an hour. It's a big deal here.

I got up and went swimming for a mile. Then I went to the bank and paid my mortgage. Then I drove an hour to work where I got through the day without too many difficulties. I came home and made Easter baskets for my 3 grandsons.

I had only one angry outburst at my mother yesterday. I was compassionate the rest of the time. I walked today and began to clean my room. I am looking forward to the rest of the day (OMG is this actually happening?).

Hello There newgal2. I was just looking at the B.P. stories, and saw this. You are ahead of me then. I am still drinking coffee, pondering my day. I hope you get every thing you want to acomplish Done today. There is nothing beter than that feeling. Yes, I have a load of laundry waiting, a load of dishes, but I am up, coffee in hand, and today, I will do all. This comes from a person still sitting on his bed. LOL. O.K. i fed the dog to, but, the point here is to try, right? I hope you have a fantastic day, and enjoy it all. Sincerely, Mr. Guy W.< a.k.a. Guy W.>

I did NOT lose my **** with the woman at the eyeglasses store when she implied that I broke my frames myself. I closed the frames to go to sleep last night and the arm broke off. She said it looked like it was pulled off while glaring at me. I simply explained what had happened and told her that sine this is the second time it's happened with the same glasses I don't suppose it's my fault, even though vile nasty things were running through my head. She replaced them.

We will see how the rest of the day goes.

I took my car to the shop to be fixed. Then went by the clinic to get a blood test and still made it to work by 9am. It was a stressful morning.

I baked cornbread today, which required me to get up and moving around. Also, I logged onto this site, and reading the posts here is helping me to feel less alone.
