Today I promised myself bacon and eggs if I could get myself to a coffee meet up. I was too anxious to attend last week. Guess who got bacon and eggs?!! Feeling so proud of myself for going.5yr ⋅ Becky-and-Momo ⋅ r/Anxiety
This is the first time I have been to the movies since getting PTSD and the first time EVER going to a movie solo!! Had lots of anxiety, did it anyway, and now feel super badass!5yr ⋅ Becky-and-Momo ⋅ r/Anxiety
Feeling so proud of: -present me- for going to my exercise class even though I was late and was anxious people would be mad. -past me- for getting up the guts to start going to the class in the first place. That was super scary! Now it’s a routine it’s easier to go.5yr ⋅ Becky-and-Momo ⋅ r/Anxiety
Decided to face my fears head on! Went on my first flight since getting PTSD. Was quite concerned about how I’d cope. But used a new technique. Not so big and scary anymore are ya panic attacks!! Didn’t panic and feeling so much more confident for the next trip!5yr ⋅ Becky-and-Momo ⋅ r/Anxiety
Feeling down again so decided to take my boys out for a bike ride. Easy? Hell no! Worth it? Hell yes!2yr ⋅ Becky-and-Momo ⋅ r/EOOD
8 years ago, depressed and suicidal I’d come to Wellington Zoo to see the animals and get some exercise. They let me bring a support person and it was the only way I felt comfortable interacting with others. Today I went with my 2 year old son. I’m so grateful I stuck around.3yr ⋅ Becky-and-Momo ⋅ r/EOOD
Felt like the appropriate movie for a women wanting to kick anxiety’s ass! This is the first time I have been to the movies since getting PTSD and the first time EVER going to a movie solo!! Had lots of anxiety, did it anyway, and now feel super badass! So happy!5yr ⋅ Becky-and-Momo ⋅ r/happy
One year ago: I needed a wheelchair as I couldn’t walk more than a few meters at a time. I was pregnant. I was struggling to stay positive. Today: I walked my electric bike up this hill! Keep putting one foot in front of the other. You will be surprise at how far it gets you.5yr ⋅ Becky-and-Momo ⋅ r/EOOD
Went cycling with these two. Was feeling down and so tempted to take the car. I’m so glad I didn’t. Fresh air and exercise was just what I needed. Looks like it did them good too!5yr ⋅ Becky-and-Momo ⋅ r/EOOD
Seriously my favourite and fluffiest way to EOOD! I promised myself 6 months ago I would do this every day. And it’s become such an amazing, life changing habit. I have noticed a big improvement to my mood. Not to mention he loves it!!5yr ⋅ Becky-and-Momo ⋅ r/EOOD
It was such a great idea taking the home made velomobile (fully enclosed recumbent trike) instead of the car to go to town for my exercise class! Extra exercise.. check. Sleep the baby..check. Save the planet.. check. No wonder we look so happy!5yr ⋅ Becky-and-Momo ⋅ r/bikecommuting
I did not let anxiety win today. I took my son to playgroup! Feeling good. Each step is a domino falling in the right direction. Now both the good form of tired: from doing something new and overcoming fears!5yr ⋅ Becky-and-Momo ⋅ r/Anxiety
I made it to NZ Comic-Con for the first time! For years I’ve struggled in crowded places due to my anxiety. I’m so happy I went despite my fear and loving the purple wig I got as my reward for going! I even filmed my experience which I hope will help other people overcome their fears too.5yr ⋅ Becky-and-Momo ⋅ r/happy
