Totally worth doing!! I went down the Hudson River at Lake George, NY and had the absolute best time! I was terrified of being stuck on a boat for 6 hours in middle of nowhere but it was totally worth it!

How I did it: Everytime i felt insecure about others hearing me i just looked away from their faces and made believe they werent there. I started singing quietly to myself and then gradually got louder Read how I did it…
Its hard to look ppl in the eye and tell them ur truest feelings, especially after theyve hurt u and caused u so much pain. Ive been angry at my mother for years and never really felt love for her. Ive finally been able to look past the hurt and pain and feel love for her. And although it was through the corner of my eye and very difficult i told her i loved her.
Everyday is a new challenege.
Im definitely learning how to trust more. I was in therapy for two years and it took me a long time to trust her. I just switched to someone else and now feel confident that i can talk to her about anything i want to. I think eventually i got too close to my last therapist and became uncomfortable talking about certain topics. that made me realize. 1) she wasnt helping me 2) she became a relative or friend that might judge me.
This new one is as wacky as they come so i could say and do as i feel.
That feels good
