I'm grateful for my pets. How can I ever feel alone?

My blood pressure was at a good range today after I took my salt and potassium tablets. (One of my meds is causing me to have low blood sodium and almost pass out or actually do so once and end up in the Hospital. So my blood sodium level and blood pressure being good like this is such a blessing.

Today I am grateful for my ability to finally show vulnerability.

In part because it was easy here, behind a wall anonymity (though I made myself put a real pic of me up here, baby steps til I am ready to share me with a therapist, and then finally my loved ones) and in part because everyone else here is so open about their own weakness.

I've never been able to show weakness, I never cried once until I met my husband 5 years ago.

Its actually really refreshing and relieving to start being my authentic self.
I hope people will still like real me, and that I keep getting better at it.

Mary, I know exactly how you feel. This is the first time in my life I'm letting down my facade. I know that people are going to like the real you, just as I believe they will like to real me. :)

Flashbacks that are of happy moments that give a smile. So precious.

I'm grateful for the tilt of the earth that gives us the seasons.

A big beautiful pearl on my strand this time -
I'm grateful that I looked at the calendar today, realized yesterday is normally a trigger date, and I was ok. Healing, day by day...

I'm grateful for the acceptance of my best friend, who knows I have ptsd and still loves me.

I'm grateful my health. It's not perfect, but I can still do the things I love doing.
