I finally achieved a small goal!!! I was able to ride
about 2 miles from my house and back!!! I was a
bit anxious, but not nearly as bad as I thought I'd
be. We did the exposure twice, and the second
time I felt shaky but proud, and actually went in a
clothing shop and bought myself a new bathing
suit.
Its silly--such a small step, but the first psoitive
thing I've felt in weeks! I hope the rest of you are
hanging in there...There is hope.

 That's awsome. I wish you continued success and strength. I too had a little step myself this week. I haven't driven by myself in 3 years. I let my drivers license expire in December. I didn't feel the need to renew since it was a great excuse not to be able to drive if I was asked. Now that we're moving, I figured I better take care of it. So, finally, after 8 months of putting it off because I was terrified to take the test, I did it. I'm still not ready to drive yet, but at least if I do, I won't get arrested (ha ha). Way to go lauralai. I'm really proud of you. Your little steps inspire others more than you know.
Katie

My eyes welled up when I read your post Lauralai.
That small step was a heck of a small step!

Good job to all of your successes!!! I had a great night last night and made it out to dinner in a restaurant and to the mall and then the bookstore. I drove while my husband was next to me. Keep the good things in mind when you are at the bottom. All success are steps towards the future and making a better life.
