Avoidant Personality Disorder

Glimmers
- Are the opposite of triggers
- Make us feel connected, present and peaceful
- Help calm the nervous system
- Can be interactions with others or solo experiences
- Are micro-moments of safety.
We celebrate glimmers each day in this group.
And in particular on Thursdays where we have Glimmer Thursday.
Today I invite you to reflect on a glimmer from your week.
And you're more than welcome to share with us in the comments to spread glimmers and inspire others.
I'll get us started with the sharing.

Didn't have enough pictures for my grid this week; I've had some really challenging days.
But then it's good to look back in my pictures and reminding myself of other good moments.
Makes me hopeful that I'll have more.
So this week's #photodiary has pictures from a few weeks:
- Sharing my comforter with my son
- Another traditional breakfast treat
- Walking my fully packed and ready youngest to a weekend trip; he was so excited, bless him
- Chocolate chip and sprinkle cookies
- My oldest son is very happy with his pocket cross; even has it beside him in bed sometimes
- Finished diamond art piece
- Study time
- My sons sleeping in their new beds; warm, loved, safe and sound
- Movie night; John Wick 1.
Thank you for helping me to focus on the good.
Especially when times are rough and hard for me.

This quote is really eye opening, healing isn't usually pretty or neat. It's messy, hard and takes bravery.

Whatever you're healing from, you're not alone. I see you & I'm proud of you.

As we begin a new week, I wanted to remind you of how progress and healing can look - and often does.
It's not linear.
And it's not easy.
At least not for me and many I know.
You're doing your best.
Even on days where it doesn't feel like it.
Then you're still doing your best.
Our best looks different on any given day.
So please try to be kind to yourself.
I wish you the best possible week, you can have.
