1) What is one of your strengths that you're proud of?
I pride myself in being mentally strong and not easily influenced.
2) Share something that you struggle with and that you're working on.
Right now I struggle with eating healthy. It is something I thought would be easy since I stopped drinking soda, but I have already failed so soon. Lol, today I ate breakfast at McDonald's (was trying to stop eating fast food) but I ate 2 chicken biscuits. Actually, I ate just the chicken because the biscuits were too doughy for me. So, I'm definitely struggling with that. *sighs*
3) Who is someone you really appreciate and what are they talented in?
I really appreciate my stepmom. She is a wonderful and beautiful woman and I admire her strength. She is a great mother and person, overall. She is talented in many things; but the one thing is her ability to love others and build others up. <3
@YourCaringConfidant your stepmom reminds me of you ❤❤ healthy eating is hard, but you can do it ❤❤ gives you a giant tiny hug ❤I love you ❤
@Tinywhisper11 You're the sweetest and I love you more! Awww. ♡
@YourCaringConfidant
Being mentally strong is a great quality. I'm proud of you for trying to eat healthily. Not following through with it every time doesn't mean you've failed overall. Every time you eat healthily it's a success. And your step-mom sounds like a great person!
@audienta my strength is I never give up ❤ not ever. What I'm struggling with at the moment is being paralysed in my left upper body 🙁 I'm used to bring paralysed from the waist down, but this is really frustrating me! Good news I will get the feeling in my upper left body back, with physiotherapy 🙂❤ so what I'm working on is recovering from surgery and physio😁❤ going good so far ☺️
I'm grateful for GlenM for creating this amazing place, a sancuary for all ❤ this place has become my home😁
@Tinywhisper11 I'm grateful for God creating you. You're such a marvelous person. You are so strong and I love you recognize that as your strength. ♡ Happy to hear the therapy is going good so far. Great news! 🙃
@YourCaringConfidant
@Tinywhisper11. We are all rooting for you here!
@adventurousBranch3786 😁 ❤❤ thanks sweetie ❤❤
@Tinywhisper11
Wow, never giving up is such an amazing strength. It shows how strong you are! I'm sorry to hear that you got paralysed in your upper body as well. I hope that you have success in your physiotherapy soon! And I'm really grateful for this place as well.
@audienta ❤😁❤
@Tinywhisper11
Sorry to hear that but glad to hear you are improving...I hope you can improve and have the use of your upper body as soon as possible
@quietlistener2023 thank you ❤❤
@audientav one of my strengths that I am proud of is my resilience I've gone through a lot of hardships and there has been moments where I felt I could not get back up but it wasn't long before I got that second wind and felt the need to show the world and myself and everybody else just what I was made out of. And even through the hardest times I have prevailed. Still working on my dysregulated emotions and I am very thankful and proud of my daughter who also struggles with mental health but is a bright shining star and has the same qualities idea we compliment each other well and help each other through our hard times
@LovelyForever6990 ❤❤ hugs you tightly ❤ you are very strong ❤ I'm so glad you have your daughter with you ❤
@LovelyForever6990 Your daughter is a bright shining 🌟 because she has you! I'm proud of you both for being so strong and resilient! ☆
@LovelyForever6990
Resilience is such an amazing and important quality. I wish you all the best for working through your emotions and am glad that your daughter and you can support each other well.
@audienta this is fab
@Happy2Help18
