yep me too x

I have been working on re-inventing myself for a while now. It is very hard. Now, I work to re-invent myself each and every day. I may not be the person I was yesterday today or today tomorrow. It's a day by day process for us I think given our moods. Hugs honey.

I spent my childhood changing to please people, I lost who I was. My BP made me lose what little I had left.

I made a decision to make myself in who I wanted to be. What morals I found important and be the best person I could in my mind

I have been dealing with this alot lately. You are def not the same person you were physically, mentally, or emotionally. Having to come to peace with that seems to be like the hardest thing to do sometimes. Also your motivation is down so you think of all these things you want to change and then you cant because you have no motivation and then you feel even worse about yourself. At least that is how it is for me. I have just recently made a goal to get back into shape and eat healthy, excersise, and lose some weight that I have gained due to my meds. Anyway, I def understand what you are going through and would love to have a partner in crime to help me stay motivated to reach my goal if you are interested I could help motivate you. Just let me know. :)

yes i have to all this time i got free need to find interest quick and hey i no that lost sinking numb feeling aint good. also hard when you no what you need and want to do but lack of funds hold you back.

I have also spent alot of my years pleasing others and sacrificing my sense of self at the same time. It is really hard to find who you are again when you really didnt know who that was in the first place. If anyone figures out a way that helps to do that let me know because I really struggle with that.

It is so hard to find the balance in life without being bipolar. The good news is; today, you are who you allow yourself to be (hopefully your meds are stable=>). It is rough, I struggle finding ME daily too... Hugs to you!

***hanging my head*** Me too! I need to find some inner strength to motivate myself.................. and I do know where to begin........ at the beginning of course... it is just so difficult to even move sometimes.

Hugs and good-wishes to each of you. And yes, we should work together to motivate each other to reach and strive.

Wow! I feel like I wrote this post....

See Kev, that is me, so many things to do... but so, so low on money.

Just wanted to add that I understand how tough it is just to move or get out of bed or take a shower. My husband gets so frustrated sometimes and I dont know what to tell him but that I just cant do anything at the time being. Hope that made sense.

perfect sense to me, thanks!

I'm trying to find myself but I'm completely lost.

Definitely Heythr...I'd love to be a motivator and to be motivated. I think sometimes I'm really good at giving advice, but not so good at following my own advice.

I feel like I know what I need to do, but like some of you said, finding the energy and motivation to actually do it is hard. I want to be a good person...I want to go back to work (in due time)...I want to lose weight and feel better about myself. There's so much that I want to do with my life. I want to live actively...and go out and do things and be social....but that's just not how I am lately.

I'd be glad to be a motivator for anyone and would graciously accept anyone who would be willing to motivate me!

Well lets do it. You can motivate me on my goal to be healthier and lose weight and make better eating and drinking choices and I will help you achieve a goal.
