I decided to invest more time in the forums, and maybe contribute more in some form that way to the community. :oops:
I've been cleaning and keeping my room organized to reduce stress,
and mostly planning ahead for the future.
It helps relieve a lot of unnecessary from your shoulders.

I've finally delt with my confidence issues by just being upfront about everything. If I feel a certain way , I won't be afraid to express it , having an opinion is really important in the line of work I'm planning to go through :)

I've managed to force myself to work out properly and eat well over the past few months--nothing over-the-top, but enough to get me in something resembling proper shape. Since I got into it for real, I've lost upwards of three inches off my waist and I'm getting some actual definition everywhere, even in the abs.

I'm also managing to get even more gigs and shows on the go, and generally making myself a little more outgoing. Money's getting a lot better and I'm slowly inching towards some actual teaching work. Life's looking up and I love it. This fitness thing's only making me feel even better about myself too.

Not playing Love Live! SIF for a day was really the opposite of what I'd expected... I a lot of other things done and being that I'm on summer vacation right now my productivity has increased tenfold

I'm sure it doesn't seem like much, but I dyed my hair today, and I got back on my meds back in May, and I've lost about 20 + lbs so my confidence about my body has been going up (It's been so-so since I had my daughter) And since I just joined the osu game 4 days ago and I got my First A last night! I know it's only on Easy, but I've had steady progress the entire time! It's very reassuring.

Uhhh...

Well...

Well, I started learning Japanese, but that's not really recent. I'm about 9 months in.

So, yeah, that's it. :o

I am learning to work with my anger and sharp tongue.
I am trying to become less prideful
Learning to ignore what people say about me
Learning to fight depression and anxiety issues
Learning that even if I have to act like someone else, I am still me on the inside
Working on getting a job while trying to do better in my college classes
Going to start saving for a car, then work on getting a place of my own
Going to try and fix my view on myself, so I am not as hard on myself all the time.

Overall I am sick of seeing myself as something I am not, and what people want me to be.
I am going to better myself for me.


Any tips of any of the things on my list would be awesome. But, it would be best if you told me through message.

This month I've properly started up my food blog and aiming to make my theatre blog a little more active. I think I've finally decided which direction to go in :)

A tip for life: Write everything down, especially your goals for a certain time period. Write daily 'to do' lists, schedules and make them look pretty. It's a small thing to do, but the outcome is huge! :idea:

I'm trying to move away, that's a start.

- Im finally going to my therapy sessions
- i take my medicine everyday now and i must say it really helps a bit
- Try to let my "fake" friends go, its really hard for me because without them im alone
- I try to learn my fav language (Korean) it kinda helps to forget about stuff for a while

Decided to put more effort and dedication into the piano.
Just went through my grade 8 exam and it felt great, so hopefully I'll get better since I wasn't really interested in it that much before.

Removed a few people from my life that were interfering with what really matters. Him

Stopped smoking for a month, and planning to quit forever.

Been looking for jobs rather than being an unproductive NEET.

i stopped being so attached to virtual items, which was to a point of being selfish and immature, and i now give them to friends and people that i like regardless of the item's value. items are not worth that much in comparison to real life interactions, i found out.

Im trying to stop procrastinating things but I can't due to being distracted aka addicting to do other things available other than that specific task.

Applied for a summer job in February and actually got it, I know it's a while since the start of the summer vacation but haven't had any time to post on the forums. It also bring so extra coins in my wallet so I am not constantly broke.

Got a few more friends and actually went out of the house with more than 5 people AT ONCE. :o Even attended a sleepover where I felt welcome.

Decided to wear summer clothes instead of my usual "back in black" jeans and hoodie style and no longer feel drained of energy when I enter sunlight.

Opened the blinds to my room to let the sun in, been doing this for almost two months now and my sleep pattern is no longer fucked up from living in a dark room with my monitors.

Bought a Thnikk osu!keypad and now my laptop keys don't fall off when I open it (after a few minutes of gluing and a hours of waiting)

Virtual
Finally got the confidence to stream liveplay on twitch and got a new friend while doing so.

Caught up with a few animes

Reached top 1k in Norway (that's top 112k int the world but still a goal achieved

About to hit top 100k in the world (when writing this I lack 5 pp or something)

Decided to learn to draw with my tablet, because I felt guilty after only using it for osu!

Still need to get courage enough to ask a special someone out... bbbut that can wait. *embarased blushing*

I suffer from depression . I do not want me to do absolutely nothing . More and more realistically I go to a matter of committing suicide. So far in my life I did not work out for me nothing . People I cared about me gone.

Advice to others: The main thing is not to give ♥

Same. I've been avoiding cola and been starting to consume more fruits and vegetables. Usually my mom brings pizza and soft drinks every Friday but I only take the pizza. I know pizzas aren't that healthy but still. Maybe I should cut it too. I've been avoiding fast food burgers though. Been eating only homemade ones.

Stay strong, it will get better if you keep trying.

i got a new job. finally, after months and months of searching and failing i got a new job. its going upwards again, i am proud of myself. i started working out again - i even changed my eating habits to the better. i'm happy again. i'm able to sleep without worrying. a job solves so many of my problems like feeling bad for living off my parents money - i can finally earn my own money again. everyone is so nice there, they all love my crazy haircolors. i can be myself there, i don't have to change. i am feeling really good and i am really happy.

Given more time to myself.

Started going to the gym again so I can get myself some bulging pecs.

Kept my distance from people who will just make my life miserable again.

Trying to learn how to control myself when it comes to my emotions... I've been handling things really terribly, and I'm getting hurt because of it, so I'm at least trying to keep my distance for now.

And I've finally enrolled as a full-time student (albeit just upgrading courses for now, perhaps a full program this coming winter). I've practically spent the past year as a NEET that would only ever leave the house for her, so it'll be pretty refreshing to finally be back in a classroom and actually doing something with my life.
