List of Brave Acts

This exercise was taken from the book "Things you think when you bite your nails", by Amalia Andrade.


The author proposes:


"Instead of focusing on what we do wrong, or the things we stop doing out of fear, the task is to write at least three brave acts we have done on the day."

What three brave acts have you done today? Would you write them in response to this post?

Hugs!!

@LightofWorld That is an awesome list. I also think that allowing ourselves to recognize that vulnerability is OK is one of the bravest acts.

Brave things (for me) that I did today!

1. Got up out of bed instead of sleeping literally all day!

2. Went to two places today to run errands. I am struggling with anxiety leaving my apartment so that was a huge relief to get that done.

3. Reached out to a peer supporter for support on a certain issue :)

Well. I have managed just one brave act for today, but it's a start. I managed being yelled on from a man today. I get flashbacks and/or panick attacks when a man yells at me. I am still shaking, but I wasn't silent and I stood up for myself. I deserve a pat on shoulder

I got up early, I am doing self-care to calm my anxiety. I am trying to think positively and focusing on one thing at a time :)
