I used to be proud of myself before dx. Not anymore. Past few months were humbeling.
Yes, not proud anymore, but humble and broken. I feel guilt and remorse. I am not in the best place

I am saying are you proud of yourself for getting through your suffering. I am not talking about your character.

I am not proud of myself. For the decisions I took. But I am proud I am correcting them.

I’m not. Should be. I’ve done so much work trying to get better. Definitely don’t feel proud though.

There are 3 things I’m really not proud of. One of them is taking drugs.

Aside from those things I’m proud of myself

Proud of some of my achievments. Like being a mother. Shame professionals are so discriminatory and want to take that away from me. Oh well.

I’m not proud of myself. I wish I had a better job that was better paying and that I enjoyed. I also wish I was smarter and more neat and organized

I was proud of myself when I was working as a nurse and raising my son and driving. Now, my son is gone and so are my nursing and drivers licenses. I really have nothing left to be proud of. What?? My apartment? My piano? My piano skills?? Pffft!!

I admit I set a high bar for pride. My parents were achievers and they set the standard for my family. Unfortunately 3 out of 4 of us siblings were MI and ultimately failed. I was one of them.

Sorry to hear your story @SkinnyMe. For sure I am not proud. I used to be, but not anymore. I feel ashamed, for being proud in the past sometimes for bad reasons.

I think I may know what you’re referring to. I had a husband like that. He was always proud of what they used to call, “getting over”.
