My slippery slope of healing...

I've felt a little better this week and had more confidence than usual.  I played basketball with friends and we shared a lot of laughs (which has been very rare for me the past couple of years).  I'm trying to stay busy and help others when I can.  
I feel overall that I have a made a bit more progress towards my goal of being happy.  It is just baby steps and I still feel I could fall back down at anytime.  I'm optimistic but very weary and scared.  I hope things will continue to get better.

I so appreciate your honesty as you shared how you are. You have come a long way since you parted company with your ex and I am proud of you. The truth be told I think you are far from being alone when you express feelings of feeling rather precarious as you move from despair into hope. My good moods also have the feeling of being brief and fragile sometimes. I want to remind you that you are an awesome person who cares a whole lot and I am rooting you on!

Thanks so much Steve and everyone for your support! :) I should probably post more here on DS and I think it would help myself and others as well. I\'m just not very good at writing out my feelings and emotions much of the time. I\'m better at actually talking to someone or sometimes I hold it all inside (which I know is not healthy). Thank you so much for all your friendship and support. I appreciate it so much. :)

Hang in there. Time is your best friend. What helps me is just getting out of the house, getting fresh air and spending time with people that care. Good luck and continue to get better.

Thank you. Things have been rather tough again for me lately, but hoping to pick myself back up. :)
