i have changed mentally, personally, and physically. focusing on something i really wanted such as losing weight really changed who i am for the better because i was able to accept who i am and strive for better, without letting myself down. [=
Yes. I just realized how much I hated myself, focused and made the change, though I still struggle with self hatred, but I am a much more thoughtful refined person than i was
Several months ago I was unhappy for various reasons. I got thinking how wonderful it would be if I could 'reinvent' myself. I've now done this. I suppose really it's a case of just finding the person I was when I was very young but lost along the way. Not listening to other people's claptrap and 'advice' has helped alot.
yes, i have. i've changed in many ways, all for the better. i am a single mom of 3 kids and have been single and celibat for over 6 yrs now.i also love jesus and god, and pray daily which i believe has helped me to be a better person. but im not perfect, and probably never will be. your will has tremendious power...use it well.
I was cynical, depressed, and suicidal. I've become optimistic, happy, and eager to live. I still have depression (it's not really a disease that has a "cure") but I have learned how to get over it, most of the time.
I cannot tell you how I did it, because it would take hours. Suffice it to say, I had a spiritual experience. If you are interested, it started when I read this book: Many Lives, Many Masters by Brian Weiss. You can find it in any bookstore.
Sure. The key to doing this is realizing you want to change, which is great because you already have. I knew I wanted to change things but kept having trouble doing so, so I actually decided to go see a psychological counselor and they helped me immensely. They teach tricks for staying focused on your logical thoughts instead of your emotional needs, and they help you think about things from multiple angles if you can't seem to get rid of a self-centered opinion.
Yes. I have become a much calmer person.
And I learned to be confident in situations where I did not feel so confident, like public speaking and playing music in public.
I focused on what I wanted to do rather than focus on how I felt all the time.

I suffered from schizophrenia and major depression most of my life. I had no self esteem, stayed in the house all the time, was afraid of people in social situations and didn't drive at all. I got on the right medication, Wellbutrin and Zoloft and began reading books about positive thinking. Together they enabled me to make a complete turnaround in my life. Books by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer are especially good, like "Real Magic". These are self help books that teach you how to be happy, successful, healthy and prosperous in daily life. When I get down in the dumps, I pick up one of these books and it really helps me get motivated and focused on life goals and good thinking. We are what we think about all day long and it's important to realize the necessity of positive thinking. Today I'm not depressed and I drive my new truck with confidence and even though there's no cure for my illness, I've learned how to be happy within myself. That happiness is contagious. I have many new friends and no fear of social situations.
i was beat and psychologically bullied by my ex boyfriend, it left me ruined and alone inside my own head, my wieght yo-yoed and i was a genuinly sad person... it took me a good couple of years of working on myself and learning to do what i wanted in small situations instead of waiting to be told what to do then acting afraid or jumping... i came out to my family when id been with my new girlfriend for 3 months and since then when everything was off my chest and i was happy and in a balanced pleasant "place" ... people now say they dont recognise me
