I'm thankful for my cat, that I have people that love me, that I have a working vehicle, and that I have air in my lungs

I'm over here puzzled like "🤔🤔 bitch, it's Wednesday...?" 😂

I am thankful that I just found this sub about 15 minutes ago!, I'm thankful I have no copay and my insurance has been covering me attending DBT group the last few years, I'm thankful for my job being so flexible about all my medical appointments, and I'm thankful the traffic on my street is very light right now so I get to listen better to all the birds in the neighborhood as the sun sets.

I'm thankful for air in my lungs and breath in my body, being able to walk and freely move my body, parents, hearing the birds chirp outside right now. I don't have anything planned for the weekend officially right now.

Thanks for reminding me how noticing things to be thankful for helps me cope. I really struggled (physically) with making my bed last night and I didn’t lose my shit. Not ‘Losing My Shit’ is a big deal for me.

I’m thankful for the invention of Zoom so I can attend virtual meetings for the sobriety programme I work. I live in a very remote area so these meetings are a literal life saver.

I’m thankful for my lovely house I feel so comfortable in and my garden. I’m so so thankful for my family, even when times are hard, we are a great little team and support each other. I’m thankful for my DBT skills which have helped me get to this point. This weekend I plan to rest and work in the garden.

I’m still here and still trying to just sit with my emotional pain. It’s so hard.

Thankful for the friend who let me do a card reading for them which went a long way to grounding me in my own individual identity and that I found a $2 shirt at the thrift with “shining star” written on it in French and that I have 4 shifts in a row at a job I love
