Depression no longer has it's claws dug into my heart
I broke free. My sheer determination, and the attitudes
of positive people around me dug me free of my
seemingly never ending despair.
I want to help others be as free as I am.
Whose first?

Well among many things:
I finally left my now ex... Ty. I finally realized he wasn't good for me.
I learned to love myself just the way I am... curves and all
I got myself back into school with a push from my family
I got a new job in a small company where the bosses are side by side with us in the field
and I guess most importantly for me is I made micro goals for myself.
I started with daily things... then moved to weekly.. then monthly and so forth until it just became my new way of life.
