After a lifetime of horrendous abuse, being a caregiver full time for my husband who got Parkinsons and Lewy boday dementia, and then losing him to death, the past two days, I have finally felt real joy. I am so happy and I do not know why.

I guess I have reached a new place of healing in my life. I know I will have more bad days, but for the very first time I have a real hope for my future.

I am not worried, nor am I what iffing myself to death, nor am I dwelling on the negatives.

I feel really good to be alive. I wanted to share this with everyone.

There is always a real good around the corner for me.

I feel so wonderful and I am out of anxiety meds and am sober.
 
Wow Gizmo, that is terrific news! :)
It's such a great feeling to reach this milestone, hang on to it, savour it, but most of all enjoy it.

You've had a very tough time of it but you haven't given up on your journey & are an inspiration to everyone here, Congratulations! :hug:
 
I am so happy that you felt real joy. Everything you are doing for yourself is paying off. As always, best of luck to you and remember that your journey continues by putting one foot in front of the other. Keep putting yourself first and no that is not an easy thing to do but you must in order to heal.
