Avoidant Personality Disorder

So many of us enter into relationships without realizing it could be a toxic connection or a trauma bond.
I first learned about trauma bonds in therapy.
This visual is a very helpful way to discern the difference!

This simple quote really hit me and I wanted to share
#PTSD #MentalHealth #BipolarDepression #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #Anxiety #Schizophrenia #Addiction #AvoidantPersonalityDisorder #Grief

I keep a gratitude log on my phone in a note app.
And I really like to have it so accessible all the time.
It helps me capture those "small" moments of gratitude.
Like:
- dropping my phone and it not breaking
- a new episode in a YouTube show
- there being only one pack of oreos left in the store; and I needed one pack
- cold, clean, and plentiful drinking water
- a Mighty friend sent me some of her artwork to support me.
I really like capturing gratitude like this.
And I really like re-reading the entries in my log.
Especially when I'm down.
So I want to invite you to think about what you're grateful for today?
You're more than welcome to share with us in the comments to spread gratitude and inspire others.
I'll get us started with the sharing.

This reminder is always welcomed in my world:
"Hitting a rough patch doesn't undo all of the progress you've already made".
When I do hit a rough patch, which I do on a very regular basis..., I am so quick to think it erases all my progress and all my good work.
And that all of this doesn't matter all of a sudden.
But that's not true.
I read somewhere that progress isn't "just" about how you manage the good times.
It's also about how you handle and cope with the rough times.
I needed that reminder now.
Maybe some of you do too?
I wish you the best possible week, you can have.

Every weekend, my plan is to share date ideas. Going on weekly or monthly dates is really important for a relationship - even if they are free, close to home or at home! The idea is that spending intentional time together without distractions is important to keep the connection strong!
Which date idea would you like to try? I really want to go on a snowy hike! 🙃❄️
