What are you proud of about yourself?

I am proud of myself that I accept life without alcohol anymore. It has been very tempting for me recently as I have not drunk in a while but I came to the realisation that it is simply not worth the risk!
and that I should try and see if i can become confident via baby steps in other healthy ways.Either ways, alcohol will fundamentally stress me out cos I will think ooh what if i just increased my chance of voices and that stress in itself aint good. so I just gots to accept my life how it is without alcohol no other choice really!

and also I am learning my first song on the guitar, three little birds by Bob Marley, theres a really good tutorial on youtube for it, clear and to the point.

What are you proud of?? about yourself??

Deciding to give self-employment a try even though it puts everything at risk.

I had a place on a course starting next month for Nursing, but after discussing it here and with family, it seems I might not be best placed to be a mental health nurse.

Anyway, I can survive for 12 months on benefits and supplementing my income with savings, so I have help and I am going to try and make a go of it.

I left my job of 6 years. It’s hard to turn away from working in IT as a data analyst as I used my degree to get that job, but I have gone back to what I did before the whole University thing.

Looking forward to being more creative

Hello @Joker.

I Don’t Know if You Remember a Little While Ago, I Insulted Metallica. And You For Enjoying Them.

I Want to Apologise to You.

I Had No Right to Hit You So Personally, When I Don’t Even Know You.

I Was Going Through Some Tough Times & Took it Out On You.

I Have No Right to Treat ANYONE That Way. And That Includes You.

So, I Am Sincerely Sorry For Saying That.

And TBH, I Actually Enjoy Hearing Metallica Song’s On The Radio When They Come On.

So. I’m Not a Very Bright Star. Sorry Again!.
