Thats a big question to answer bc our view for ourselves doesn't match with others. Either is better or worse. I believe that if you know yourself then u can do or don't whats right or wrong. I was always proud of myself even for my mistakes or decisions that either was for my future or my personal matters. I am an introvert Sagittarius even at 37 i have those moments but I'm there whenever u need me, I'm your crying shoulder I'm ready to kill fory family and my loved ones. I will hear you i will tell you my opinion but the choise is yours. So I'm proud of me and myself bc i haven't let anything to change me. I'll always be Evi !!!! P.s DON'T ALLOW ANYONE AND ANYTHING TO CHANGE U

When I achieve my goals that I have set out for myself and by others like my mentor who knows how to push me and allows me to make mistakes but is there when I need his advice. Me knowing that people who have said or even thought that I wasnt worth the time or energy to believe in are always proven wrong when I achieve my goals and they are still where they are at blamming everyone but themselves where they are. I have been around people who blame their life on the government not protecting them and giving others handouts but them when it's really about their choices in life of what they achive and don't achive. Everytime I achieve something I brag about it to myself everyday that "Hey I achieve that goal which I thought was so hard but really it was super easy so what's my next goal going to be and is it going to teach me a new skill or something new about myself that I just happen to wake up inside of me." That is how great people over come their problems and allow to improve themselves everyday. I also learn from not achieving goals that I need to find a different route to it because route a didn't work out for me but maybe route b will. Even if I fail from achieving the goal I know I try my hardest and I will be better next time I set that same goal. I also enjoy seeing the looks of my haters when they know that I'm achieving my goals and they arent because of their choices. It's all about believing in yourself and not listening to what others say about you that will make you succeed or fail. If you get the haters in your head with their negativity then they win but if you have them in your head as positive thoughts like "You wont make a million dollars in a year" instead you say "I wont make a million dollars in a year instead I will make a million dollars in 6 months." Then you have won the battle no matter what the out come is. Stay positive and use negative as the fuel for you to make your goals and so how much you have grown as a person.

Happened to me, because of my self-resilience. Happened to me because of the amazing people I have around me. Happened to me because I am fortunate to be able to afford the commitment. Happened to me because I encouraged and allowed it. A mindset shift. I started going to the gym with a friend from work. We committed. Payed the annual membership. Went to our first class. As someone who has anxiety..I never thought I would step into a gym. But I did. Since then we attend 3 or 4 classes a week. It is incredible because it is so much more than going to the gym. It is putting effort in when my mind tells me I have nothing left. It is showing up when I am scared and could easily hide instead. It is feeling more comfortable in myself, in my appearance when surrounded by people with opinions. It is managing in the moment when anxiety creeps back and not giving into my thoughts. It is feeling healthier, fitter and slowly losing some weight when for so long I have felt weak. It is eating better, sleeping better, having something to look forward to, smiling more and moments of pride.

During this time I also began to question my sexuality. Fortunately, I had a great group of friends around me. When I came out to them, these beautiful girls responded in a way I could have never expected. They were happy! They asked if I could go clothes shopping with them in the future so someone can tell them if they look hot. They kept my secret for me. When their parents wanted them to attend an event at their church that was to shun the LGBTQ community, they all got grounded for refusing to go. I know that many do not always have that kind of coming out experience. I was lucky to have friends that reacted that way. I wish that I could say that the support I got from my friends made me ok. That was not the case. My mental health got worse as my life went on. Because of this, I have had to learn ways to get away with life. Here are a few of those ways: When the outside world causes me anxiety, I do a grounding practice. You focus on things you can see, smell, and touch. You remember that you are in a safe space, that whatever is causing the anxiety is not real. Some use grounding objects as well. Some carry stones in their pockets. I carry, as embarrassing as it is to say, my childhood blanket. I do not use it like I did when I was a child, obviously. But when I am at my most anxious, feeling it can ground me to the present. When you feel like you can’t breathe, try mediation. I have always struggled with meditating, because I cannot empty my mind. But then someone opened my eyes. They said it doesn’t have to be about clearing your mind, if you focus on your breathing, eventually your mind is clear. Therapy. There is a lot of stigma in this world about mental health. I can tell you right now, that if I let that stigma take over my mind, I would be dead. Instead, I have learned to fight back, even when the pain seems insurmountable. The people that taught me, and can teach you, are therapists. Seeing a therapist doesn’t make you crazy, it makes you someone who wants to better their life. For some, medication may be required. If I were not taking medications for depression and anxiety, I would be dead. These things save lives. Finally, exercise and eat well. I will admit, of all the things on this list that I do my best with, these two are where I need to step up my game. When my depression wants me to lock away, even more so during this quarantine, I force myself to go for a walk. I don’t feel a difference yet, but maybe I will over time. These are just some of the ways that I try to get through life. Coronavirus has made it difficult for me to easily adhere to this list of things, but I am doing my best. My grandma died, in Ohio, from coronavirus. I never got to say goodbye, I can’t go to her funeral, I can’t even hug my niece and nephew to share in the grief together. But, I have found a way to get away with life, even in times of extreme hardship. Those 5 things above and the new friends I have made are the answers I have found. Maybe these can help you too.

To me Life has been hard, your life is always busy. You always have to fight for what you want. But you are strong and easy to get along with. You know what you want. You have 2 amazing children that are growing way to fast..always look forward you never forget where your from and your childhood but do not let that hold you back from what you want and need in life You have a wonderful husband that will do anything for you, even tho he is going though a hard time himself with his job and health. You see it all. Just keep pushing forward.
