Iā€™m proud of not asking for pain pills for the last 3 back injuries. No hate to people that use them, theyā€™re just not for me. Ice pack and heating pads and Advil are the answer.

I think i am proud of my resilience. I have been through so much. Yet I never let any of my life challenges prevent me from accomplishing what I wanted to. Even when I failed I just kept trying again and again until I succeeded.

That is a bit hard to answerā€¦im quite angry with myself right now about the mess i made in life.

But i think i am working rather hard to take an honest look at myself and my past. Im integrating very hurtful, difficult things that come with loads of guilt, shame, anger, grief. Things i always ran away from. I think im trying to change some stupid patterns, f.e. im avoiding abusive or unavailable partners and im starting to be less codependent in social contacts. I try to communicate feelings, needs, boundaries. Im still not great, but i finally started learning instead of repeating the same type of stupidity over and over.

Actuallyā€¦I am proud of that. I think these are all things i should have been taught as a kid and i think learning these as an adult on my own is hard work.
