It has been over a week since the new year and I was just wondering who has kept their resolution so far, and who has broken it. I didn't make one so I can't say anything.
Didn't make any. I've noticed that when I consciously and decidedly make New Year's resolutions, I never keep them. However, if I just say things to myself in a nonchalant manner, like "Gee, I wish I would lose some weight this year" or "Gee, it would be nice if I'd get more comfortable in my sexuality", they tend to come true.
I made a resolution to quit facebook, stop self-induced crying, and stop cutting my arm. So far facebook and cutting is dealt with, but I still purposely make myself cry by putting on classical music and Christmas songs. I don't know why, but I love the feeling of sorrow which is why I do this.
There is nothing wrong with a good cry, it can be healthy. And congratulations on not cutting, that is great (*hug*)
My last resolution was to never have another New Years Resolution. That was two years ago, and I've been rather successful so far! lol I feel that there is no reason to wait to start something on the first of the year. Why not just go at it today?
Thanks! But the main the reason I tried to quit crying was because multiple times last year I ended up crying way too much. My blankets literally were drenched in tears and I had to re-hydrate. I really started worrying when I couldn't stop crying, which made me cry even more! The day after my eyes were EXTREMELY dry. I felt terrible for the next few days and got prescribed eye drops. I still have the eye drops and apply them whenever I cry that much again. I didn't want to ever cry that much again, so I New Year's resolved to just cry when I really needed to. A weird part about the resolution, I didn't stop cutting because I used it to cope, I cutted because I loved the taste of my blood. I would literally take a blade and suck the blood from the wounds. I knew this was unhealthy and probably not vegetarian, so I quit. So far so good
I didn't make one, because I've been proceeding forth with my previous goal made earlier last year to become a weapon.
Didn't make one... although I should because I always kind of enjoy them. Maybe try new things at college? Because I've been bored lately. Should try to join a new club or something. Make a new friend maybs
My resolutions were things I wanted to achieve over the course of the year, rather than things I had to do from the beginning. As such, I can't break them till the end of the year.
wanted to stop smoking... its not something you can just stop doing it needs to be reduced bit by bit until you manage to stop .
Same. ---------- Post added 9th Jan 2013 at 03:14 AM ---------- i dont, but i read if you try to quit and fail, don't feel down...it evidently takes many many tries. All habits are hard to break. ---------- Post added 9th Jan 2013 at 03:15 AM ---------- you becoming a machine gun? Wow! I knew transformers exist! ---------- Post added 9th Jan 2013 at 03:17 AM ---------- learn what is in making soda and you will never try again.
Come out to more people -- Good start! Definitely kept this one so far. Cut down on alcohol -- Ehh, yeah. Haven't exactly kept this one. What else did I say I'd do? I don't remember!
I had the exact same resolution for this year! Years before I'd always managed to break all of them, so why make any? A year is always too long to stay at few resolutions, today is today!
My resolution was to improve my life and cut certain people out. I haven't broken any but I certainly haven't started anything. :eusa_doh:
My resolutions were too go on a diet, try and come out and too be happier...... Was on a diet for a day, tried to come out and cried instead and I'm trying to be happier and it don't work lmao!
