View submission: Tuesday Check In: How's Everybody's Mental Health?

Fantastic! I'm getting promoted, valued in a job I really love, and I'm soon getting married to an absolutely amazing woman. Just today we signed the papers. Things are looking in all aspects of my life and I finally have taken charge of it instead of cursing my bad luck and blaming everything but myself.

In a span of at most two years I went from bitter, resentful and self pitying to taking accountability and seeing the results. Caught up with what dentist, which I was avoiding and terrified of, caught up with doctors, and in general stopped blaming external conditions I was unable to change for my misery, instead opting for trying to change the ones I could.

Turns out it works beautifully. Cannot be happier =)

It's been a rough couple days online. This is probably the best thing I've seen in a minute. Love your attitude. Congrats, man!
