So what was the best moment in all of 2012

The realization that I can be happy and be myself all at the same time.The fact that I learned I don't have to change who I am for anyone.

It wasn't any moment in particular...more of a progression that finally came to completion in 2012.

how'd ya do that agent

I don't have a method.It sort of fell into place for me once I stopped trying to fit in with people.Once I made myself see there is no shame in living alone and there's no shame in not being at every party,every social event,etc.

Once I started noticing more and more people just complain about their friends,their busy schedules,and their family life...I realized being the way I am,I have very little to complain about or be depressed about.Instead of complaining or needling at myself over perceived negatives I started speaking positive even if I didn't mean it 100%...it made me feel better and better. I kept a list of reasons to stop being sad and angry...by the new year I had several pages and more than enough evidence that my life is really great and I had no reason to cry.
 
When I look back, I always feel that I am smarter, I can see that I made a progression. I went out with a girl last year, for the first time hehe, that was definitely something good.

When a friend told me that she read that 20 seconds are the perfect duration for hugs to make you release endorphines, and that she now has to insist on giving 20 second hugs to me.

My recovery continues at an astounding pace. Learning about Vipassana Guided Meditation as the route to (intuitive) mindfulness and the Law of Attraction has shown me how to make permanent change….although nothing is permanent.

I can't think of even one good thing that happened.
And not because I'm being overly negative...I'm actually feeling rather good this morning.
I just can't think of even one single thing.
Makes me sad...

2012 was generally a good year for me with lot's of good moments, with the best coming in June of 2012. I went to a meetup with some people from this site and it all went perfectly, and was the zenith of my progress with my issues really showing myself that I can change, put myself out there and accomplish hard goals I set for myself. Or basically that I can do things, even when balled up in my room everything seems impossible. It is probably the best moment of not only 2012, but also my entire life (so far)

Wow can't believe you could actually meet people and face them, congrats, in my case I wouldn't even have thought of meeting people in society who'd be totally new to me and would be quite skeptical of being judged by strangers..oh my god i can't even face the people i've known for years...You should suggest me...:perfect::crying::kickingmyself:

I think the best thing I did in 2012 was to pluck up the courage to get in touch with my best friend again. It was around september and we hadn't seen eachother in ages despite the fact we live close by (we both have social phobia xD). I'm just so glad we've got our friendship back now as I've become a much happier person since.

Oh and finishing college, that was a weight off my mind. Although it did leave me a bit clueless on what to do next, but I'm content to just go with the flow and see which direction my life takes.

When my agoraphobia improved for a week or so in the summer and I got to walk along the river again for the first time in a year or so... (Of course, it went worse again after that, but oh well...)

I don't really remember 2012...I think there's something wrong with my memory. Out of about the 5 "events" i remember of the year, meeting a friend "Semo" on steam is probably my best moment..although I haven't talked to him in weeks :s
 
When I opened my lease renewal letter and discovered that my landlord had been gracious enough to leave the rent as it is for yet another year.:brindis:
(this is amazing because rents have been going up and up and up here the past couple of years)
