Determination I surpose, it's hard, some days are easier than others. You have to try and find what works for you and keep at it. Sorry I can't be of more help.

A lot of determination, a lot of hard work. The good days increase the more you work at it. You gotta look for things to fill your time with, give yourself small goals to achieve, even if its only something like responding to a phone message, writing a letter. We are the only ones capable of getting ourselves unstuck. The motivation doesnt suddenly be there in the morning, we have to go find it. Keep working on it and you will get there...small steps! x

step by step
moment by moment

I signed up here

I went to my doctor. I let myself be put on meds

I journal... I am writing, writing, writing... getting things out

Stop bottling things up

Asking for help when things overwhelm me. Still need to work on this.

Eating right, exercising, and not being so hard on myself are things that I have to be more diligent about.

I've been feeling panic lately and am having difficult time taking the action I should be taking.

I've been saying throughout the day.
Breath in faith, exhale fe. and doubt.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
