Almost always when we're depressed, we think of ourselves in a very negative light. And sometimes, people think of us as "lesser" than them because we have mental health issues. However, we are more than just our disorder. So, I'd like to ask... what are your BEST qualities? e.g., "kind", "caring", "selfless", etc.

I pretty much never hold grudges. And even the very very few I may still have, I am actively working to end. I don't believe in the concept of evil. I have never become completely hopeless. I love to laugh. When I love, I love forever.

Creative, funny, artistic. Scrupulous observer of other people's boundaries. Honest and trustworthy.

I have the ability to give a lot without much in return. I'm an excellent strategist. I hold a lot of hope and gratitude. I love fiercely. I fight hard for those who have been abused by those in power.

Best quality? I don't know I've turned into a pretty bitter cynic.

I am a good listener and like to think, a lot of the time, others come before myself (I have a lot to deal with, but not so much I can't help others)
I can also make a joke about absolutely anything and make people laugh (but also know when it's time to be deadly serious) |

I want to hear your best qualities as well ![]() Me? Ask me when I am manic and I will give you a list ![]() On a more serious note, I am trustworthy and I see the value in people. Might sound odd, considering I enjoy being alone and don’t have many friends- but at work I am a manager and I like to see the positive in each of my co-workers and I do hire people with challenges as well. I am a nice person, I can be funny and charming. I am a human being. We all have value. Sometimes we need help to see that. In our darkest moments it’s easy to forget. Thanks for the post ![]() |

I'm an empath. I'm also funny and smart, and creative with my writing. I can be trusted
and would never betray a confidence. And I am grateful for everything that's good in my life. ![]()

Well, I'm not in a particularly positive mood right now, but this is a good thread to read for such a moment in time. I'm sure I'll come up with stuff on a better day.

This is always a tough question for me...
I’m loyal to a fault, I’m caring, I have empathy, I’ll always listen, I try to offer advice if I have any, it takes a lot to anger me. I’m kind, generous, have vast amounts of compassion, I have a quick witted often sarcastic sense of humor..I am like a vault full of secrets people have trusted me with over my life time. My T told me I have “Grit” he said no matter what hell we have uncovered or struggles in my life and I become scattered I always pick up all the pieces and just get on with things.
