The thing that helped a lot? That really got me back to a point where I could really start doing the "work" and get focused was the right medication. I was in a place that needed more than I could muster without it.
Once I found the right one and I was at a stable point, I began to improve daily and I keeps improving.
I am now at at point where I can do the things I need to do to continue moving forward. The cool part is I "enjoy" most everything I do now! I get up between 5 and 6 ( in the morning! ) run, eat and start my day. It is too cool.
I stay busy all the time, so I dont post much. I still type very slow, so I put it off. Is there a typing pill? LOL!
But, to whoever reads this.......These sites were a major help and influence to what I have been through. The Health Educators and members on the forums show so much support and compassion. In a time when you feel all alone, are in a terrible place in your life, you have friends here. They will help you during your struggle! Eventually you get back to a point where you realize it will be okay and things will get better and work out. But through this you have a family of people that understand.
Several of the sister sites were helpful in my recovery process. It has truly been a life changing experience here.
