Trust isntdoesnt always have to be earned

@Casscass
I am supposed to highlight something I have learned, so says my growth plan. I think I have learned from this site that there are tools to help me cope and learn. I just need to be persistent. Those tools are not perfect but it is not about them but me.
@Skeptigirl Im so glad to hear that you were able to learn this :) Thats really good :D
@Casscass
@Skeptigirl
I can so relate to this - often we don't see the value of things off the bat, especially while in a dark place. The tools are never perfect, but we build up skills and resources that make the perfect toolkit for us to cope with our unique challenges in life. Keep going, and I'm sure you'll get there in the end. It sounds very cliche, but you do often get out only what you put in. I'm proud of you for being persistent - keep it up!
I've learned my therapist is someone who I value tremendously.
@Megan1234 That is such a lovely thing to have learnt :) Your doing so well and were all proud of you! Keep on going :D
@Casscass
Grow plan* of course
@lousytruth Thats a really good thing to have :) Keep on going your doing really well :D
@Casscass
Although I haven't been on this website long, it has helped me realize just how toxic I am to myself. I just finished the Acceptance & Commitment Therapy section, and some parts were really hard. I feel like it was because I had to come to terms as much as i could, with the idea that i really do need to change the way that I think. It is much easier to push it away and run from it, but sometimes, it only makes things worse.
@MMR Im proud of you for sharing this and we are here to help you too. I completely understand how it can feel to want to run for it but knowing that it will only make things worse too. Keep going your doing really well.
@Casscass
Needing attention from the people you love is not a bad thing. We all want to feel loved
@adventurousWatermelon2034 Thats great to learn that and shows that you have thought carefully too :)
@Casscass
@adventurousWatermelon2034 Yes thank you! They may respond that they are busy or need time to themselves but asking and admitting you want attention actually is a sign of a healthy relationship and takes courage! I have struggled with this too, because I seem to have a lot of introverted friends, and I try not to take that personally. :)
