Driving.

Most people take that skill for granted. I learned it at 23 but I never had a car until this year so I completely forgot how to drive. Not only I needed to learn all over but since them my confidence has disappeared so I am now extremely afraid of driving.

I used to have small panic attacks while driving in half empty streets and need to stop. Then I learned to be at 20km/h, then 30km/h. Now I can drive at 50km/h with only a bit of anxiety. I hope that soon I dare to reach 70 and one day I can go to the highway.

I feel so childish for being proud about that or being so scared. But I went from 0 to this since april so I guess that I should celebrate it.

Honestly, I have a list BUT I'll go with the two that took the longest for me to achieve.
Paying bills/rent on time. My utilities were constantly being shut off, I'd get evicted for not paying rent, etc. I have paid rent to the same property management office for the past 3 years and NOTHING has been late or shut off in that time!
Having a bank account with money in savings and NO BOUNCED CHECKS! I use a debit card and it helps me keep track better. There's been at least $150 in my savings for the past two years. I've had it up to $2000 and it's now at $1050 but it's never less than that $150!

I baked a cake! I'm a great cook but I can't bake. I've been trying for years and this weekend I made my first (edible) cake.
It's chocolate orange with candied orange.
The wife didn't like it but I thought it tastes great!
I don't know how to attach a pic here so I'll put it in the comments below.

I have Parkinson’s. What’s difficult? It takes me an hour to change the sheets, 40 minutes to clean the cat box, 10 minutes to get from the front door to sitting in my car. In the beginning my daughter would call each day to find out how many times I had shouted F*%k. It’s not fun but is what it is.

Talking. I am extremely introverted and having a conversation is nerve racking for me. Unless with close friends and family, I struggle alot with making friends because of this. I also do not see why certain topics are made such a big deal.

Confrontation
I know people can do it easily, but for me, if something is wrong (not disaster-like, but something was moderately wrong) and I have the ability to fix it, I usually do not.

I have been trying to get a bit better at it, being more extroverted without the help of my friends, and I hope in a few years I can stop worrying about it

I held a spider. A Chilean rose kneed tarantula. I’m absolute petrified spiders. So much that I’ve actually passed out on seeing a house spider.
I decided I needed a bit of help after I pulled every muscle in my torso by vaulting over a sofa from a reclined position just because there was a spider running across the floor.
I was shaking like a leaf and crying my eyes out but I still held it. I’m so proud of that.

I called Verizon and disputed a erroneous charge on my cell phone bill. I was on the phone with them for two hours. The woman argued with me for the entire time. I was losing patience and finally requested a supervisor, who removed the charge in one minute. I don't like confrontation... I usually would just give up and pay it. But I stuck to my guns and was eventually heard. Also... I get anxiety about talking on the phone for any reason... Even to my friends

Driving. You'd think being in the country, where there are tons of farm roads and most kids learn way before it's legal to get a permit that I would have learned to drive right along with them. But I had 0 natural skill for it, unlike my older siblings. My parents panicked and convinced me I was going to wreck and get hurt, which led to whole lot of anxiety. I was 25 when I overcame the fear and learned, but I did it!

and yesterday i called a coworker that i never met or talked to before. i was so f*****g nervous because i hate calling people. i spent almost 2 weeks avoiding calling him but yesterday i made click and i could do it. hope i don't have to call someone else for the next month, tho... LOL

I took a theatre class in high school in an attempt to get over my shyness. We had to sing in front of the class and I just about threw up, but after being ridiculously shy all growing up I really wanted to change myself for the better and to become more social and even though it was just a small theatre class, it was the first step in my long, still on-going journey to breaking out of my shell, and I’m proud of myself for it.

Getting good grades.
I grew up as a "gifted kid" which most people think is a really good thing, and it is, but teachers never taught me study skills, time management, basic things like that that help me with school, they just threw me into advanced classes and expected me to work. all through elementary and middle school I had a D+ average, and I graduated middle school with only a 1.8 GPA, which lead to a lot of arguments at home and quite a few sleepless nights. now I'm in my freshman year (still in advanced classes), and after lots of hard work and hours of studying, I have all A's and B's. People usually think that it's easy for me, but it's really not and I am very proud of myself for keeping my grades up. :)

Talking to people. I have terrible social anxiety and I tend to notice whenever people seem even the tiniest bit unhappy so whenever I notice things like that I immediately think it's because of me, which makes me even more shy and quiet (it makes it even harder when you take into account that basically anytime I feel like this I end up having a panic attack, which makes me even more embarrassed because as I mentioned before I'm very shy) and so I end up retreating into a corner and not talking to anyone. It seems small, but it is a constant battle for me.
