Since I'm trying to focus on positives these days, this is something I've found helpful on another board I post to...thought it might help us over here too. Anyone who wants to, POST 20 positive things about yourself!!! Here's mine!

1. I'm strong

2. I'm cute...lol

3. I am on my meds faithfully

4. I am fighting my disorder

5. I am taking care of myself again

6. I am being positive

7. I am laughing again

8. I am playful again

9. I will not let depression win

10. I am focussing (trying) at work

11. I am NOT listening to my negative thinking

12. I am taking life as it comes and not ANTICIPATING

13. I am reaching out to others

14. I am good enough

15. I'm not BAD just because I'm ill

16. I am letting go of guilt

17. I am working on letting go of old resentments and the past

18. I am still here

19. I didn't give up

20. I DESERVE goodness

Hugs to you all,

Keli

Sue!!! You go girl! See, you did it! That's another positive!

You did a great job, and isn't empowering, to see it in writing?

I think next time we do it, we'll make the list shorter, so maybe more people will join in...but thanks for joining me. It really helped me!

How are you feeling today?

Hugs,

Keli

Hi Keli -


I agree, a shorter list would get a better response!


Feeling better today - I think my recent meltdowns were hormonally related (that time of the month!)


Thanks for asking!


How are you?

peace and love,
