I’m sure there is, but I can’t think of a specific moment right now. #CPChatNow
Goodnight #CPChatNow
Is there a particular moment where you felt your self validation grew from? #CPChatNow
Until you learn self validation is all you need, you’re right it’s a rabbit hole you’re going to get tripped up on and twist your ankle. #CPChatNow
I get that, but I think it also has a lot to do with people’s experiences. Some folks have had tough experiences #CPChatNow
Then again that's where confidence comes into play. Confidence is not needing any validation outside of your own. #CPChatNow
That's a psychological rabbit hole we could spend the next decade of #CPChatNow exploring! For starters, I think people care about what others think because they are seeking validation. #CPChatNow
True I never understood people who worry about what other people may think, though. Life is too short. #CPChatNow
For me, I made great strides in my confidence when I started doing 5ks and realized my competition is me, not those around me. That was shaped by my CP since CP made me slower. Without CP, I might not obtain that same wisdom as fast or at all. #CPChatNow
It's probably a mix of age and CP. Let's face it. Not everyone grows to be comfortable with who they are. There are those adults who still won't do something they want to do because "What is so-in-so going to say?" #CPChatNow
Yeah I think it more just comes with age and having experiences. Some of those can be CP and some aren’t #CPChatNow
I know when I moved in with my brother, there was a lot of adapting to my new environment. For example, higher bath tub? Start marching in place more to keep my legs' range of motion strong. #CPChatNow
I don’t know if it’s really CP or if it’s just once you reach a certain age, you’re not willing to put up with bulls*^* #CPChatNow I know a lot of people my age disabled and not who just don’t want drama in their lives. It looks a lot like being more comfortable in your own skin.
QUESTION: As a child CP can easily cause you to lack confidennce, but would you agree as an adult CP helps to make you a more confident person? Why? #CPChatNow #cerebralpalsy
I certainly think CP shapes a mindset geared to solving "how do I adapt to accomplish this?" #CPChatNow
I think I have posted similar things, but I don’t get shook by much or I can adapt #CPChatNow
Not sure #cpchatnow
How long has she been going to the Exceptional foundation? #CPChatNow
"If they aren't going to wait for me, I'm not interested in where they're going." I love that! That was one of the more serious takeaways I got from Ben Carrier's book. The right people won't make you feel broken. #CPChatNow
This is my girlfriend Lauren #cpchatnow
She has autism she lost her mother do you want to see a picture of her her is Lauren #cpchatnow
March weather is wonky! Yesterday I was thinking of moving my inserts back into my regular New Balances, but then I reminded myself it is just March. The weather is nice now, but snow is still very possible. #CPChatNow
That’s really cool, Stephen. #CPChatNow It’s good to have people who understand where you come from.
It took time, but it taught me to slow down and appreciate the now. #CPChatNow but as a kid and teenager I spent a lot of energy trying to keep up with my friends and family. Now I’m like, if they aren’t going to wait for me, I’m not interested in where they’re going.
Do you have a lot in common? #CPChatNow
I met my girlfriend at the exceptional foundation #cpchatnow
My twin sister is in Iowa called me Monday and said they were in the 60s. This morning she sent a text saying they have snow. 🤣 #CPChatNow
QUESTION: How would you say cerebral palsy has helped shape your outlook on life? #CPChatNow
Same thing with the Bartman game for me #CPChatNow
