I was very moved by this post (and by many others of yours I have read as a non-active observer here on Steemit) because I can relate to it so strongly. It made me realize that I have not been celebrating my small victories although I have had many in the past 6 months, after a very, very long period of total chaos and confusion.

Today, just a few hours ago, I was almost ready to give up, I was questioning myself about the fact that I might have just been fooling myself thinking that I could actually start a blog and be good at it?

If I keep sitting here just watching, I just might waste an amazing opportunity to get myself unstuck. I have been wanting to share my experiences with depression and mental illness for the past 2 years, hoping that it can help, inspire or bring a new perspective of viewing things, but I still haven’t found the courage to put myself in that vulnerable place, or at least, this is how it appears to me at the moment, considering the struggles I have been going through for the past 8 years.

My intuition is giving me a clear signal that now is the time. Consequently, I am intentionally writing this reply before I even start engaging and posting, this way I am forcing myself to have no other option than to be accountable for it.

I have been looking for my tribe for a very long time but never found one that quite seemed to be transmitting on my frequency, but this one does!

Big Love,
