When I joined this community I hadn't even had a job and my housing was unstable. Right before the 5-day challenge, I got hired, but work was making me miserable and I was barely able to walk once I got home from an 8 hour shift and I couldn't even handle 2 days in a row. Now, week 4 into the 6 week program, I've got 2 jobs, can work 8 hours a day all 7 days of the week and still move around the house if I need to and sometimes even still have enough energy left to do some light cleaning. I'm so much further than I thought possible for me

So I am carrying grief for the relationship I lost , the career I wanted, the job i had, the 11 year old i once was. That's a lot to process. Crying after each of the three sections , then reading the profile.

Just finished all 3 sections of my ADHD Snapshot and one thing hit hard: I've been saying I "resorted back" after CBT like I was the failure. This reframed it as the tools not fitting my brain. Also realized the first change I want isn't about productivity. It's about giving myself permission to have 30 minutes that are just mine.

Just finished the first section of my ADHD Snapshot and it pointed out something I never connected before: retreating into books my whole life wasn't me being "a loner." It was the safest space I had because books never mislabeled me. Also, apparently warning my younger self to hide her problem-solving brain says more about what I lost than what I learned. Crying because im now being seen for the first time.
