I'm 16 and for all my life I've struggled with doing things on my own, both because of my mental health also sometimes I just wasn't taught how to do certain things!

Today I showered myself for the first time. Well, I have done it before, but it was always rushed because I was anxious so I didn't get very clean. My mum got the water the right temperature for me and put the shampoo/conditioner and body wash on different sides so I could tell the difference without my glasses, and I did it! I wet my hair, washed it, rinsed it, and then I cleaned my body too. I felt in control, and I also felt a lot less embarassed.

I'm so very proud of myself. In addition, since it was a nice day, i went outside in the garden three times in 20 minute or so intervals. This is a really big step for me. I can now clean myself on my own without needing too much help. I'm proud.
