Six years ago I had a breakdown. I was only able to shower once or twice a week and stopped caring about myself. For the past week I've been getting up and showering every morning. I've been going and sitting in the back yard and looking at the clouds like I used to as a kid because I remember that bringing me happiness. It still makes me happy. I finally care about me. And after biting my nails till they bleed all my life I've finally stopped. Now I have long nails. I still have a long way to go and it's still hard but I've taken a step forward. I'm so proud of myself.

Each day you have to get up telling yourself you can and you will make it!

Hello everyone!
I’m new to mighty, I’ve been struggling with anxiety and depression for the last 15 years. I’m a single mom to an amazing 8 yr old girl. She’s my best friend and brings out all the best in me. I have a lot of things to be proud of but despite everything I’ve accomplished I still struggle. How do I get us up in the morning, make lunches, travel to school and work and then work a full day. Some days it’s almost impossible for me to comprehend before I make my first moves in the morning. But I do it. I do it because I have to. If it wasn’t for my daughter I don’t know if I would be here today. I’m a firm believer that taking with people I similar situations is therapeutic which is why I’m on here today #Anxiety #Depression #Singlemom #Hopeforthefuture #icandoit #TimeToTalk

Today, I am in NYC with a very real group of moms with kids of varying ages, stages, and disabilities. They are watching a show that I wasn’t terribly interested in, so I have a few hours to be in the city. I am a good NYC follower but not leader so my anxiety is high and I’m playing out all the worst case scenarios. But, I’m going to do it, use my gps and enjoy this time to explore.

What are you challenging yourself with today or during the next week, month or year? Even if you don’t have a specific goal yet, what are you thinking about?
