Doing Good At This Moment

Today was actually good. I didn't have any suicidal thoughts and I finished my homework and I did my hair. It's weird how one day you can be so down in the dumps nd the next day your up and moving and showing yourself how important you are. You gotta love us humans even though sometimes we are hard to deal with. Anyway, I hope everyone has a good night and keeps getting better.

Nice; thanks for sharing. Classic AA quotes come to mind: THIS TOO SHALL PASS and, of course, ONE DAY AT A TIME. Keep up the good work.

Can you pinpoint what changed ? I think we can alter our mental states if we really try

Flashreturns For me I keep myself busy by doing daily things, like cleaning, making my bed, brushing my teeth, doing my hair, or whatever the case may be. And sometimes I like to watch movies, watch Youtube, and watch my favorite comedians on Instagram to keep me smiling and taking my mind off my affliction. You have to find out what works for you that gives you hope about the next day and so on. You can even use these ideas that I've given you. Take care.
