To be proud of myself?

I just walked (15min each way) to my local Sainsburys on my own. I've never been able to do it before (I have autism) and although I hated it and it took every ounce of courage to do it, i got some cat food for Toby the cat, and a delicious chocolate sundae as a treat Smile

Can't wait to tell my mum later, she would be so chuffed

That's a great achievement, you have every right to be proud of yourself. Well done!

finnmcool · 09/06/2017 15:05

That is fantastic!
After a traumatic event, I suffered with agoraphobia. I felt like I deserved a prize the first time I took the wheelie bin out, so what you have achieved today is a massive step forward.
Well done, you should be so proud of yourself Smile

SaorAlbaGuBrath · 09/06/2017 15:08

Quite right too OP, I have anxiety and panic attacks and when I got on a bus for the first time in 5 years my mum reacted like I'd climbed Everest! You are quite right to be so proud of yourself Smile

Yes! Smashed it, well done you, you should definitely be proud Easter Smile

Fantastic! Well done.

I imagine you'll be exhausted after that, so I prescribe a quiet evening with your favourite movie/tv/book.

MoodyOne · 09/06/2017 15:31

Oh well done! YANBU
