Life satisfaction poll

Just was curious how everyone is doing in life. Lots of us here, lots of journals. But we all have different circumstances so it would be cool to know where everyone feels they are at in their own self growth.

I would place me in between 1 and 2.
I made great progress in my almost 16 months with SC and slowly discover what is holding me back and working on goals.

I wanted to just drop my own experience in here and if anyone else wants to share feel free.

This was my vote: I’m working on goals and making improvements but I still find life is difficult for me

Life has been a battle for me. I’ve realized why I got stuck so often because the list of things I have to accomplish just to get on a stable footing are immense. So I ran away, I checked out, I ignored, and stayed in unfavorable circumstances. Not having a foundation REALLY sucks. Trying to build a foundation while dealing with complicated circumstances of life is even more difficult. Some days I’d ask myself, is this all life is?

Recently I started figuring things out and I’m building. But I’m still afflicted with that fear of “will any of this be better? Can it be better? Am I chasing a fantasy?”

It’s hard sometimes. Living in such a limited existence and trying to learn to step out of it. Not just stepping out of it, but being comfortable with things going well or even beyond going well and joyful.

For any of you on this forum who are still struggling, my heart goes out to you :heart: . It’s a hard place to be and while we’re all responsible for our circumstances and our lives, we sometimes aren’t responsible for how we got in that mess in the first place. I hope everyone is able to find their happiness and move beyond struggle and good enough into something even better.
