notawallflower Posted July 4, 2010 Report Share Posted July 4, 2010 OK, this is really hard for me today, and I feel guilty about writing anything good about myself, but I believe this will be a helpful exercise for us all. I like myself because: * I have a small part time job and having that extra money to buy more groceries makes me feel good about myself. * I study one subject and manage to do the work even when it's hard emotionally. * I care a lot about my friends. * I try to overcome my depression. * I generally keep my house looking nice and that's a source of pride for me. * I think I am mostly a good mum as I have a happy little girl and her school report last year said she is gaining confidence and self esteem. * I like my sense of humour.

jojo_c Posted July 4, 2010 Report Share Posted July 4, 2010 Ok. I Like myself because: * I am kind and caring towards others. * I love my beautiful girlfriend, look after her, and protect her from harm. * I am generous but careful. * I am a strong person, even when I don't feel as though I am. * After all is said and done, I am a good person. :wub: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forbidden75 Posted July 4, 2010 Report Share Posted July 4, 2010 I like myself because: •I am loyal friend. •I am kind and care so much about others. •I love nature and animals. •I like my sense of humour – though sometimes it makes me sound nuts! •I like keeping my house clean; it makes me proud of myself. •I love doing the gardening, I can find relaxing. •I wear what ever I want and don’t follow trends. •I fight hard against the voices – even if they do win sometimes. Wow that was hard to do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Data Posted July 4, 2010 Report Share Posted July 4, 2010 I like myself because: I am full of love for other people, particularly my children.I make an effort to try my hardest all the time to be a good husband, father, scholar, homeowner, son. I often get it wrong, but I do the best I can.I love amateur photography.I am a researcher at the cutting edge of computer science.I have had some of my work published.Despite my wife's chronic mental health problems, my son's autism, and the bad atmosphere in this house, I generally make good decisions for the family.I really do want to get better, I've always fought for help. I am seeing a therapist who is an expert on personality disorders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

recurrencebat Posted July 4, 2010 Report Share Posted July 4, 2010 OK here goes! - I am kind and thoughtful. I generally put others before myself and try to see things from others' points of view. - I am honest, even in situations which are awkward. - I am pretty clever and also quite insightful. I'm often making connections between seemingly discrete things. - I seem to have quite a bit of direction in my life now. - I am able to love and accept others' love for me. - I have a strong appreciation of beauty, in art, literature, nature and other people.
