Hi everyone!!!!!!!!!!! I hope everyone is having a blessed day!
Which brings me to the reason for this thread....I want you to tell me 10 (more or less) reasons to fight your depression/anxiety/Bipolar Disorder/etc.
Tell me what in your life is so important to you that you need to be able to wake up in the morning and say "I am going to look this illness in the eye and slap it around, cause today I come first"....
Tell me what keeps you motivated and keeps you going and what reasons you have for NOT EVER wanting to die.
Once you have done this, once you have told me and everyone else what makes your life worth living I want you to save this thread and look at it everyime you feel depression winning...
You are more important than an illness... There is something ..someone in your life worth living for...Keep living.......

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...
