...yourself to something special?

When I was in the worst part of my anxiety/panic and depression, I found that I had stopped really taking care of myself.

If this sounds like you - well it's time to do something about it.

Light a scented candle, give yourself a facial, buy that CD or blouse you had your eye on for a long time.

WHY? You ask?

Because YOU ARE SPECIAL AND DESERVE IT!!!

Please share what you have done lately to treat yourself special

Hugs,
Calico

Calico, it's actually kind of funny that you would bring that up today, because I did actually go and get myself something for the first time in months! When my panic first started in Aug. it was pretty horrible, so I ended up losing a LOT of weight. I have been walking around in baggy pants for the last couple of months, so today I decided enough is enough. I only bought one pair, but they're really cute, they fit and I am happy to have them. They're very comfy! Ariana

Hi Calico,

Thoughtful topic!

I�m sure most of the �people-pleasers� reading this topic are finding it difficult to post any reply, but trust your words are helping guide us toward paying attention to ourselves.

Of all the replies I may think of, I thought to post something everyone may do for themselves that I found was a key first step toward taking more care of my self and treating my self more special:

Today, I will let in my own patience, compassion, love and acceptance for myself no matter where I may find my self on the journey. I will let this in with every healthy food I choose to eat today. I may choose to change somewhat, but that does not mean I am not divine just the way I am!

Yesterday as a matter of fact! It was a cute sweater!

I treat myself alot. I agree w/ you Calico. We are special and we do deserve it!

I don't spend over 20 bucks a wk. on my treats which are usally CD's, unusual jewelry, has to be nature related, as I'm very naturelle!lol! and if I'm shopping I hit the sales racks! I work hard for my money!

No longer a people-pleaser and proud of it!
