Ceelllllll-e-brate good times! A place to celebrate ourselves and eachother :)

This week the Forums celebrated it's 1 year anniversay!

Together as a community we have reached -

- Over 1500 members

- Started 1301 discussions (well 1302 after this post )

- Responded 18,762 times

Above and beyond the numbers, together we have created a place where people feel supported, encouraged and comfortable to share their tough times and achievements.

What a huge achievement!

To mark the occasion, we thought we would start this discussion as a place where you can celebrate other members on their achievements - big or small!

We've had members achieve a variety of things - getting a new jobs, finishing courses and taking steps forward in their mental health. As a group we have supported each other, shown kindness and stood up against adversity.

So here is our new space - a space to celebrate other members for their achievements and give them a big high five!

Thanks Nik
Thanks for the positive feedback.
This is a very difficult type of OCD to talk about for all of those affected.
Hopefully it helps many many more.
All the very very best.

I know I've used this image before @Change123 but I kind of love it and it means the same to me now as it did before and I hope it does to you. I had to go back page by page 36 pages to find it so I think that took longer than it did to create it😜 . You still inspire me with your posts, dedication and persistence. I love reading your wins but also your battles and how you are tackling them. You are part of the reason I've been able to see things differently for me too. Keep on being you. I wish you all the very best.

hugs 💜🤗

THANKS GUYS!!!!!!!

You dont know how much I needed that today!

I was actually came on to vent, have had a very bad day yesterday with my owner/ boss, let him him get the better of me and have been raging this morning trying to distract myself AND THIS DONE THE TRICK - THANK YOU!

I had a very testing weekend but proud to say have come out of it better, my partner doesnt handle stress well with his bipolar and we have had everything happen in the last week, drains block up, dog still issues with his paw, microwave died _ I wont keep going but you get the picture. He start to crash very badly and usually when this happens in the past he has taken it out on me and because of the way I have reacted its becomes a voltaile argument. NOT THIS TIME! My partner actually told me he was getting "very stressed" and I could see how snappy he was getting so I didnt respond, gave him some time out and left him in peace and then I did something I never have before - I asked him if there was anything I could for him to make him feel better - he said no but his mood shifted a bit. Then Tuesday he was really depressed nearly crying and I was stressing that everything would go back to how it was. Even though I had a shit day yesterday at work I was delighted when I came home he had improved dramatically and was really nice to me (his way of saying thanks). So a potentially bad situation with my partner and we both took care of each other and got through it unscaved!

Thanks again everyone for the support - couldnt have got this far with out you all!

I want to give a shout out to @Former-Member for starting Lyrics Game yesterday. Despite everything that you are going through, it's amazing to see that you can start conversations that bring a bit of joy to other members.

I hope we can give you a bit of joy (or maybe even some slight relief) during these stressful times.

@Former-Member Not only did you start this thread at a time when some of us needed some light relief but you are continuously supporting others when they are struggling despite going through your own struggles. You are a blessing to so many and I for one am so very pleased to have you around.
You are a star little blue bird...
