The 100 Day Reality Challenge

How is everyone today? Doing well I hope.

I've decided to finally get around to introducing myself to the greater CCOR community.

I discovered CCOR months ago, didn't do anything for months, and then recently decided to do something for me, about my life and to fix the state I am in. So here I am.

My name is Rachel, I'm twenty-one years old, living at my parents house in Solon, a suburb of Cleveland, Ohio. I'm attending Kent State University for Graphic Design, though that is a bit up in the air right now as I try to figure out my life. Hmm...lets see, I'm not the best at these things...

I'm head over heels in love with my wonderful boyfriend of four years and he is the best thing that has ever happened to me. He is incredible and is simply amazing. I can honestly say I don't know where my life would be now without him.

So why am I here? I've been clinically depressed for almost a decade. I'm sick of it. I want to be happy. I want to love myself. No one can love me if I don't.

Also, I'm ready to live my own life for me, not for my family or my friends or even for my darling. I've spent the last 20 years, give or take, living for other people, censoring myself, doing what I think other people want me to do. Now it's time for me to be a little selfish, time for me to focus on fixing myself.

I guess that's all I can think of right now. I'll be around. I haven't decided on a starting date yet, but once I get my intentions and goals in order I think I'll have a better idea.

Take care!

Hey Share - Welcome, and Congratulations on all the positive things going on - such as your great relationship with your boyfriend and your decision to live your life for you, not doing what you think other people want you to do.

Keep following your dreams and be happy!

Lol Sandra, Nano withdrawal. I wish I had your problem! I would love to really be in the habit of writing everyday like that even if I can not seem to use contractions.

Congrats! Taking classes can be such a great experience in learning and retaining information. The benefits are far beyond the information you gain through the class.
