I Realize That I

[amethist]

I realise that I need medical help with the menopause and going it alone is not working for me.

I realize that I am a adult and more organized than I give myself credit for. Even though I dissociated during the appointment, I had all of the forms I needed. I feel a great sense of accomplishment and relief that it is all over. And I realize that I got really lucky this year and will get back more money than I dreamed.

I realize that I am at the age when my friends are going to get very sick and I am afraid one of them is dying. His spirits are up and he is surviving the best he can. Another friend just had a bad bout with pneumonia for a month. I am going out to breakfast with her next Tuesday. Another friend had a cancerous kidney taken out of him and he does not have cancer anymore.

I realize that I engage distorted thinking when I sit down and start reading into or trying to figure out what people meant by the comments they made to me during a conversation. I just realized that a few minutes ago and it feels like a big realization to me. I feel good about myself for recognizing that :).

I realize that my suicidal thoughts are from my teenage self, not myself now. I can better manage them when I realize the thoughts are a recording.

I realize that the road to recovery and healing is a long journey I have taken and I have learned and grown so much. I still have my bad days but they are not like they used to be. I no longer carry the false guilt and the false shame but apply it to the people who made choices to hurt and use me.

I am so glad I am getting better and I do not have to deal like I used to being so hard on myself and beating myself up anymore.

I realize that thought I am not the most "well liked", I am effective. My client walked into and out of a fast food restaurant with just holding my hand today. Safely. He was thrilled.

I realized today that a person can go through so much hell and good comes out of the bad.

I realize that I can overcome a lot, and even though the insurance company labeled me completely and permanently physically disabled, and Social Security labeled me with a low chance of recovering from my PTSD, I don't have to buy into it. I can still be a productive person who is working hard on bettering herself.

I realize that I can not make my son see the importance of school. I can try, but he is 18 and going to choose what to see for himself. I realize it is not a reflection of myself or my parenting. Then again, maybe it is.

My husband in his right mind used to tell us that everything is going to be ok. Now I am realizing that this is a true saying. It comforts me.

I realize that I am not perfect and that I will make mistakes and that's alright.

I realize my mother is a very selfish and critical person and that she is not going to change.
