I got three A grades in my A-levels. That was 25 years ago. Unfortunately even that hasn't helped me in life

I've got several accomplishment in my career. Several international prises for my work in STEM. Received considerable funding for me and my team. It was going very well until I fucked up everything.
I got two collegeg degrees that turned out to be useless- bad luck in how it played out, plus I suppose not realizing how important an internship ebfore graduating would be- plus underestimating the importance of graduating in your twenties- this opens many more doors.

If the criteria is doing something good for humanity, I managed to gather intel on a corrupt university professor who did psychological and, as I discovered later, also sexual abuse to students and I handed everything to authorities. He was powerful and influential, so they tried to protect him but it was too much to be disregarded and his mask was taken down to the public and his career almost destroyed. Unfortunately, he wasn't arrested, but only paid huge amounts of money in "compensation".
if the criteria is doing something good for myself, let's se... nothing?

I wish that I could say successfully completing ctb, but unfortunately I'm still here. I think that to accomplish things in life you have to have life goals/ambitions and an interest in living in the first place. I have none of them and I haven't really accomplished much at all. My existence has always been very pointless and empty.

It could always be worse. It is for me. Every day there is something worse new in my life. Now my boss is harassing me taking a sick leave, mind in a EU country were sick leaves are unlimited by law. So things can always go worse

I went from being a homeless disaster of a person to having a degree level job in programming all off my own back within a year.
I was living in supported accomodation when covid hit and decided enough was enough. I spent all of 2020 learning to code after being introduced to it by an ex partner. She also introduced me to speed which allowed me to study for hours straight uninterrupted. I doubt very much I could have done it without the drugs, and luckily managed to survive the process without inheriting any long term dependency issues.
Got my first programming job in 2021 and am still there to this day. Parents and close friends think I'm some sort of legend for being able to pull off such a 180 in life, most don't know I had chemical assitance though lmao.

There was one time that I made an absolutely perfect peanut butter and jelly sandwich, but then I ate it so I can't really prove it- I should have taken a picture or two. :)

At one point I would have said graduating from college. But, for me, it wasn't really accomplishing anything at all. Maybe managing to move away. But that doesn't feel like an accomplishment either.
The only thing that feels like anything anymore is the fact that I've kept one promise to one friend.

Being a well-established musician. It's the gift that never stops giving me some form of pleasure. Doesn't matter if I'm successful - as long as I've got a guitar or piano I'm in business.
Owning and operating a successful business. Now I'm crippled after taking the vax.

This sounds cheesy but I would have to say that my children are my greatest accomplishment. I always wanted to be a mother and had health issues that kept me from getting pregnant easily. So I was blessed when I became pregnant. Both of my boys are grown now and are becoming successful in their own lives. Couldn't be more proud of them.
That's huge- it's a huge accomplishment. My parents were the worst kind of monsters, though they had a nice act for show, so I do appreciate seeing caring parents very much. Besides what's wrong with being cheesy- who doesn't like cheese? Caring about your kids and helping them to have happy lives is a huge accomplishment- if you don't do this they are so vulnerable to the worst and meanest bullies- it means everything, really. :)

Aw thanks! My kids are the best! I'm sorry your parents are monsters. That really sucks. You seem to be incredibly nice despite how they are.
