Taking on step at a time.  Some days are better then others but I keep going. Yesterday was a hard day  woke up feeling anxious and stressed just emotional missing my kids bad and a very special person . Today I woke up with a positive out look can't say it will not change but I'll will do my best to keep happy.  I go to the doctor Friday so I'm going to talk to her about my on and off feelings. Thank you to everyone that has committed on my post it means slot.

Nothing is quite as sure as change, TAS. All the more reason to celebrate the good days when you can. Carpe diem.

Thank you for inspiring us all with your triumph.

Good for you going to the doctor. It's a step people aren't strong enough to take without help, so clap yourself on the back. Remember that not ever day is good, but there is usually something good in every day, no matter how small that good thing is. Hugs

Hello Tough. I like the positive attitude yet reality based. Yes it may gonup and down , but yes giving yourself permission to enjoy the ups is as important as giving yourself permission to mourn the bad ones. I am proud of your balance and thank you for the inspiration tonight, i needed it. Triple hugs of support~

    I did the dumbest thing today.  I charged my earbuds, unplugged the block and put the block in my little bag instead of the earbuds.  I wasn't happy about that when I got to the gym.  What a dummy!

    Ever since I stopped doing therapy because of insurance, I've been feeling that old tense and irritable sense of anxiety and stress. I hate that. I was making so many strides and changes during therapy, my therapist would acknowledge all of my progress and accomplishments, and I miss that reassurance. Today I thought about it, and I made those changes! She would always tell me that I chose to...
