2. Listened to my sister vent about how annoying boys can be
3. Despite being a grown woman, I opened my old dusty Lego bin and made a tiny Rocky from PHM. Words of great encouragement

My day today was pretty shitty but I will try.
(It is really a hard question today)
1.Me and my dad had an argument on the phone and suddenly the connection was lost. That was quite good. lol
2. In the morning I was less depressed (the evening is fucking with me)
3. One of my Youtube videos had more views than usual
1. I made homemade pizza
2. I got my favorite drink
3. I got to sleep in ((:

1. I called my partner immediately when I broke down in tears today. I usually choose to cry alone and ruminate instead.
2. I finished most of my work.
3. I chose the Recovery forum to lurk instead of the CTB discussion forum.
4. I asked my coworkers for help when I was struggling with my workload. Usually, I have trouble asking for help and end up overwhelming myself.

I love that you made this post! It is fucking hard to come up with things you are grateful for when you are really depressed but the more you do it the more you are digging yourself out of the hole. At least thats what I think.

-I feel grateful for SaSu. I do not really feel like I belong in many spaces but oddly enough I do here
-I am feeling much better, it feels never ending when youre in the thick of it and a big relief to be out of the hole
-I am enjoying the peace and calm that my new living space offers (no noisey neighbors or thin walls for once!!!)

- someone working at the bookstore said my name is pretty
- someone working at the store said my outfit is cute and they love it
- im listening to music

i still feel like shit over something that makes me not really appreciate any of these 3 things because im annoyingly stubborn like a child

I had some work cancellations so I got to go out for a walk at the forest preserve(even thought I literally had to run from the mosquitos)

I feel accomplished for finishing some work stuff that I usually put off

Hasn't happened just yet, but I am going to do some diamond art that I am looking forward to

1. It had unexpectedly stopped raining when I was riding to he outdoor gym and it was still quite warm.
2. On the way back I spotted a little lizard lying lifeless on the road. I nudged him very gently with one fingernail and found he was still alive, so I picked him up and put him under the fence in the grass, hoping he'd go into the field and not get run over on the road.
3. Someone posted a photo of an eagle-owl in flight at the local park here, I've once seen that owl in person too.

I cooked, which I haven't been very enthusiastic of, but I wanted to.

I played with my cats for a bit.

When I took out the trash the clouds were really pretty and there was no one around so I got to stare a while.
