Grateful I can clean my house and do groceries. via /r/gratitude

Burnt out in august 24 and got lots of medical help. Couldn’t go out, was always in a state of panic/anxiety, could barely function.

Got diagnosed with autism and went through regression, I thought I would never recover ever, went to the psych ER almost every month.

Now I can take care of my house, go out and do my groceries without being terrified or on the edge of melting down or getting panic attacks thay would send me into spiral. I can do my laundry, create and do art without feeling like I’m about to pass out.

I’m very grateful. Progress isn’t linear but it’s here, even if you don’t feel it. Sometimes, all it takes is being able to wake up and do a little task even if it means recovering from it during 3 days.
