Good morning,
This morning I am, once again, very aware of how keeping my thoughts secret keeps me sick.
This morning I am grateful for telling on myself on Thursday. I have been holding my anxiety secret from most of you. Anxiety and depression is a vicious cycle of uncertainty and fear. Today my goal is to unlearn fear and to let it go to my God.
Talking and being truly honest is hard for all people, but especially hard for addicts and alcoholics and the like. Anything in extreme causes uncertainly and shame. Today I am thankful that I no longer feel the shame when my mental illness raises its ugly head. I know it is just part of me and my normal; it is just some days it takes over and it is difficult to realize it until gets bad enough to cry help and give it to my God and share with you.
This morning I am grateful for going to do some girly stuff with my travel buddy today. We are going to Greenville to see a play tonight. I believe the play, musical, is going to be fun; it is about Huck Finn. I am thankful to be among others and not living in despair and denial. I am grateful for being released from my PT yesterday. Yay! Now I just have to continue to strengthen my hand with some weights and rubber bands. Who would have thought rubber bands as a tool for PT. Anyways it doesn’t matter to me as long as I continue to do the next right thing to heal my hand. I am thankful to have an attitude of gratitude this morning. Have a wonderful Saturday and let’s enjoy the little things in life.
Love Me
