I looked at myself in the mirror today. I mean I really LOOKED at myself in the mirror. It is the first time for a long time that I have actually done this and it was the first time in, well I cannot remember how long that the person looking back at me was not thinking, failure, fraud, shame and other like words.
The person looking back at me still has a shit tonne of work to do and be much more accountable to himself but bloody hell it was exciting not to have those automatic thoughts.
Being at peace with oneself is something that we, PTSD/anxiety/depression (and shout out to other people with mental health conditions) sufferers rarely experience so when you at peace, well it is just awesome.
A close mate of mine once told me to stare at yourself in the mirror and see what it tells you. I couldn't bring myself to do it, I will now be doing it.
Peace out, be well.
