There’s also the fact that you’ve jacked your arms to the point where you can arm wrestle Popeye and win. That’s a hella big score, sir.

I started physical therapy and have gone every week.

Managed my money pretty good the whole year and now I’m in a good position money wise.

Graduated college earlier this year and attended graduation ceremonies with the whole shebang: regalia, listening to speeches and walking up on stage in front of 500 people and accepting my diploma.

With the help of meds and this forum and my family I have achieved a focus that is not on my delusions.

I also achieved habits that I thought I could not achieve like doing my hobbies and managing my dads estate and taking care of the house better.

I honestly don’t know. Make more images yes, spend more time with my wife and kid, yes, and pet the kitty. That’s all I have so far. My BFF is sick with cancer and may not make it to Christmas. I am having trouble picturing the next year without him in it.

I forgot to say I worked to keep my mental health stable, but I also moved into a new apartment early this year, and I like it much better here than where I was before. I guess this has made it easier to hold it together.

I went to an assessment interview knowing I might make a total fool of me. I travelled 1.5 hours for it and waited 2.5 hours in the cold for the bus home. It was an achievement because it was a great learning experience I achieved due to my dedication and courage
