Ok, so these might not sound like a lot to some of you, but to me, my anxiety being as bad as it is, they are pretty big things!
Ok so my first triumph was replying to an ad, and therefore having speak on the phone, not once but twice, to a woman that I didn't know!
I phoned her because I was replying to an ad she had put up looking for somebody to ride her horse for her.
It took me a few days to pluck up the courage to e-mail her, and then she asked me to phone her, which took another day for me, but I managed to do it without acting too much like an idiot.
My next step is having to meet her in person, but i'll get to that when it comes.
Ok, so my second triumph came about today....I was walking home from school, as usual, and for no apparent reason I felt really confident about something...so rather than clinging onto my bag with both hands like I usually do, I managed to walk normally and have my arms by my sides. Again, doesn't sound like much, but for me to be walking like that is very rare!
It felt brilliant once i'd done both those things, it proves that when you put your mind to something, you can do it.
No i'm waiting (If rather nervously!) for the next challenge
Anybody have any mini success stories to tell?
