What is something you did that you are really proud of?

#21

Being successful in college. Went at 30 years old with a 1yo, working part-time, being wife/mother and full-time school. Was in 2 honor societies, president of both, student government, and was named student leader of the year 2nd year in. Continued being active in honor society till I left, now as alumni. Never thought I'd do so well

I was in a major hit and run that basically wrecked my right leg (knee and thigh), spine, and many other areas of my body. My proudest and happiest moment was when I finally managed to stand up on my own, with no help from anyone or anything. Next moment? Taking my first steps without help

The day I told my parent I was raped. Man, my sister started the conversation, I added in. But It’s something I’m proud of and that will never change.

That even though I couldn't talk to the age of two, I had/have horrible sensory issues, I was adopted, I am level one autistic, I had depression and suicidal thoughts, I have bad anxiety, that I'M FINALLY HAPPY! I'm doing great in school, I have a good family and a sweet boyfriend! I'm proud I turned my life around! You can too! It's hard, but worth it!! ❤️

Anything I was once proud of is gone due to depression, PTSD, and an unfairhful spouse. So I'm proud I still have the strength to keep living

I got 99/100 on a math exam. I was so nervous because my parents said I had to get top marks. When I went to take my paper, my teacher asked me how well I thought I’d done. I panicked and thought she was implying I’d done very badly and said “not very well”. My friend saw this from a distance and was also worried about me for quite a while since we couldn’t show the paper or discuss marks. Everyone chatted about the marks as soon as the teacher left the classroom, and literally everyone was shocked (not because I’m bad at math, just… whoa…).
BTW, my parents were just like “ok” and we moved on, although everyone at school asks how I studied. I study 1 hour math every weekday on a regular basis ( not just for exams)

My first Calculus test - I bombed it. My professor told me I was not cut out to be a math teacher. I knew he was wrong about me and my abilities. I worked my butt off and went on to become a successful classroom teacher, then a sought after speaker at state and national conferences - so much so, I was approached by a publisher and asked to write a book about how to help teachers teach math more effectively. THAT was the day I knew that in spite of his constant belittling of me in class, I had not only overcome his prophecy, but had used it to fuel my work and successful career.

When I was 19 I left a polygamous marriage and cult. When my "ex" husband and his wife asked me to come back on the condition I cut myself off from my family and was completely submissive, I said no, left, and never looked back. I'm now a 47 year old, liberal, feminist, atheist, mother to a fatherless child. No regrets.

The day I walked out and quit a job on the spot when my boss at the time told me that If I was working two jobs to pay for my wife's cancer treatments then I was "mentally no good to him as an employee"

I've struggled with various substance addiction throughout my adult life and though I don't know the date of quitting most things I've managed to quit, I use May 2nd as my day to celebrate because as of this last May 2nd I'm 5 years sober from alcohol and tobacco. I've never felt more proud and accomplished for literally doing nothing, but it's harder than you may think.

After 6 months of not reading a single book because I had a absolutely horrible English teacher that made us read VERY DESCRIPTIVE books on the holocaust in the entire 7th grade year. I read a book I wanted to for fun. (I started homeschooling in 8th grade, when covid started, because I have a very bad immune system and couldn't go back to school even when they let us because I am allergic to the vaccines.)

Right before summer of this year I had to write a biology essay and it was one of if not the best essay I’ve ever written. It was great. Got a 95/100 which slightly disappointed me but not bad.

The day I left a relationship I wasn't happy in.
Took me months because I was afraid my friends(not even the person I was with) would be disappointed in me.
