I just got married! I have a daughter... from when I started here on WP, I evolved, life is crazy like that. What have others accomplished that you're proud of? Life's good when you set goals and succeed in them! It's been a struggle, I'm just thankful for everything.

I have made two good friends and managed to graduate from university. I've also managed to overcome my depression and anxiety (and my tics are also lessening) which were very hard.

The only thing I can think of is the volunteer work that I do on the weekends. It is the only time I feel I'm even remotely on the same level as anyone my age. All other times, I'm no further ahead than even those who have just graduated high school.

Striving to be a good person. Recently corrected all the bad things from the past, contacted people I wronged and apologized. Wasn't much but my slate is clean. Might not have achieved much in my life because of my problems but I am always there for the people I care about and pride myself in that. Defend them with my life and they know it. Have proven myself many times and nobody can take that away from me. When others fled with their tails between their legs I stood there and defended what I cared for with fire in my heart.

What have I succeeded in? Nothing. Am just myself.
