OK, month 6 is in the player and I am starting to feel a lot more settled with myself. The past few months have provided some welcome changes with my outlook.
The first few months seemed a bit hard for me. Each monthly changeover caused sleep disruption, edgy attitude, and often a more introspective attitude. I found myself saying less but taking in more from my surroundings (work, social, home, etc.). That has seemed to ease up a bit with month 6.
The changeover this month was relatively seamless. No sleep interruptions, no edgy attitude. I feel more comfortable with myself and my opinions. While I may not rush my words into a conversation, I definitely won't shy away from saying what I think. It feels good to have this type of confidence in myself.
Work is ever changing for me (massage therapist). I am always learning new things and working to grow myself and my practice. I have always had good confidence while working, but more so at this point. I am actually planning my future now, instead of taking it one day at a time. Feeling a certain level of excitement about a more positive outlook for myself.
I have purchased David DeAngelo's book but have only read a small portion thus far. Will make it more of a point to read as Shannon mentioned that the book isn't to find a partner but to reinforce behavior.
At this point, I will say that the Gay Alpha Male series has been most helpful to me. It has given me a stronger sense of myself, a greater confidence. Only way to go a this point is forward.
