Accomplishments and other Postive Things

  The main accomplishment and positive thing for me has been that I have actually been able to leave my house and start doing some things that I enjoy.  It is the main stepping stone to a happier and more fulfilling life for me.  It may not sound like a big deal or a major accomplishment to the average person but for a Agoraphobic and self imposed shut in like my self it is a Huge deal.  It is the difference between living in the light or living in the dark.  It is something that I struggle with on a daily basis.  I do feel like I am finally starting to make some head way.  I have Hope.

Today I went to the park for lunch with my friends and we chatted and socialized and I was talkative and pleasant!

Red:  I'm so happy for you!  My dear friend who passed away, taught me how to quilt.  I've never been that interested in quilts but because she was so passionate about them she used to get me all fired up when she described colours and patterns.  I can honestly say, once you get into it, it is a great pasttime.  She used to tell me that with this hobby you got something at the end of it, a beautiful, one-of-a-kind quilt.  I'm a great recycler, so she taught me how to use second hand sheets or clothing for scrappy quilts.  For me, they are the most fun.  I sure hope you enjoy it.

Amazing Red!
 
I loved reading this post.  It takes a lot of courage and resourcefulness to find the tools you need and use them to help yourself.  You are doing amazing! Always looking to improve and always trying to remain positive.  Keep it up!
 
You are right you deserve to do the things you enjoy.  Live you life for you!  
 
The quilting sounds like lots of fun! You will have to show us pictures!

My list of 3 positive things:
 
I went to the Jo-ann's fabric & craft store yesterday and got a book for my singer sewing machine on quilt making. I also bought some software for my computer on beginner quilting.  I have been interested in learning how to quilt for a long time. I am really enjoying reading up on the subject.  I am just starting to really look for positive diversions to take my mind off the anxiety and panic.  The thought of a diversion had not occurred to me until I heard other people talking about diversions in their posts.  Its like I was blind and now I see.  With the help of this program and the support of everyone here I was able to open up my eyes to new ideas and concepts.  This exchange of thoughts and ideas has been a real life saver to me.  When you are a agoraphobic for many years you have very little contact with other people and your world is so small.  Having this group really has opened up my mind and world a great deal.    I take all this as a good sign that I am starting to deal with anxiety and panic.  I am learning how to let my mind and body relax.  I am starting to enjoy my life and I am learning to say no to the things I do not enjoy.  I also have decided  that I am not going on the trip to the engine show on the 14th of this month that I am going to stay home and relax and do some things that I ENJOY and that its OK to let MYSELF do that.  It may have been painful it may have been hard, but I have really learned a lot about my self this last month and I am much better for it.

My accomplishments as of late,
 
 1. We called and  I confronted the person I was having issues with and think the problem is resolved. We will know for sure after we attend our next show in the middle of April.  If not than we will be leaving the club for good. We have other clubs.
2.  I have decided I need a change of scenery and am leaving today for camping trip in search of reddesertflowers. I should get some really nice pictures of the spring time flowers in bloom.
3.  I am looking forward to the peace, serenity and the healing powers of the desert.
4.  I'll talk to you all when I get back and hopefully have some new pictures to post.
Take care everybody,
Red

On another note.
 
Today was a good day.  I was able to go out by myself and get my hair cut today and had a nice visit with the hair stylist. I came home and went out again to do some grocery shopping at a huge warehouse by myself and had no anxiety at all.  I even talked to some fellow shoppers about supplements while I was out shopping. It has been very relaxing and productive day for me so far.  I am very happy with my progress and feeling really good about myself.  I am also feeling really good both physically and mentally today.  It was nice to be out and about today which is not something I would have said before. The sun felt wonderful too.   It was just a really beautiful day all the way around today.  Well thats enough for now I guess.  I am looking forward to waking up tomorrow.   Hay that doesn't sound like the old me either.  I am really liking the new me.
