Thank you, you guys changed my life

[Yoyomelon]

Back in March of this year I posted a thread out of desperation. I had let a room in my house get into a terrible state. I felt ashamed and overwhelmed and honestly expected people to come at me about how I let it get so bad.
The compassion showed to me on that thread was unbelievable and those words helped me to make changes not just to my messy room but to other areas of my life also.
Since then there have been a few set backs but I have mostly managed to keep my space organised and I also managed to prioritise myself in other ways by losing almost 3 stone (ketogenic diet) and yesterday i completed couch to 5k. I go and get my nails done again, wear nice clothes and take care of myself in a way I hadn't for years.
I feel like a different person reading that thread now and hearing how hopeless and worthless I felt.
So thank you to the kind strangers of mumsnet you have helped me more than you will ever know.

That's lovely OP - well done!

Well you did all the hard work so give yourself a pat on the back . Sometimes this site has so much negativity and bitchiness but then you get the times when people help each other and it’s nice , well done :)

I didn't read your original thread but I am so pleased for you. The kindness and advice from strangers on mumsnet has improved my life many times over.

Wow - well done!

Brilliant 👏

I went through the same process - minus the couch to 5k - I walked a marathon instead :) And yes there are a few slips along the way but the groundwork is now ingrained

So proud of you xx

I remember you! Well done! So pleased to read your updates and now to see this 😀

I’m impressed. I hope others will take inspiration from your original post and this one.
Well done.

Well done. As @Mum2twoandacockapoo said, you did the hard work, but I m glad you got support here.
