Please try to get outside and take a walk. Feel the sunshine.
Force yourself if need be, as it is the BEST MEDICINE.
hugs.

Be good to yourself - go for a walk if you can. Walk for at least 10-20 minutes - it will really help. Tell yourself nice things... "I am" statements. I am strong. I am lovable. I am beautiful inside and out. Say this because you really are those things - lovable, beautiful and strong. You are worthy of happiness.

For some reason your post made me think of this lovely article that always makes me feel good when i read it. It makes me feel like I count when I read this. Like I am not just some number. I am someone.

I'm going to post it in my journal since it's long and I don't want to force people to read it... It will be titled "They're Playing Your Song"

PS - Listen to music, too. =)
