I'm Back But Doing Well.

[winterose]

Thought I'd come back and make an appearance for a little. I am doing well. Back in New Mexico. Had a small break from therapy and am restarting at the end of this month. More due to financial reasons. I been patient taking one step at a time and getting better each day. Memories don't invade as much as they used to. Anxiety on being out in public still is there but I take it one step at a time. Getting ready to go back to college in January. Getting reconnected with old friends and new one's. All in all everyone is ok. Dogs and rabbit still with me. Now if I can keep Blanco from doing stupid stuff we will be jammin'. Hope things are well with you all or getting better.

It is great to hear you are doing well. I agree that one step at a time is the best way to go. Tonight, or should I say this morning is my first time back in a long time. I must use a magnify glass to see each word, but at least I can see again. Congratulations on going back to school. I know how important it is to get a good education, as well as how hard it is when you also have ptsd.

I heard something the other day that makes good sense to me. "The past is to be learned from, not lived in." Jeffrey R Holland. When I start to look back, now I think of that and move on. It seems to be working, so far.

Keep up the good work, and it's nice to see you.

Sad thing is I do have an education. Just can't use it now. That was the hardest thing to give up what I loved to do. But a new oportunity is waiting for me now. Congratulations on going back yourself. I think we just find whatever works for ourselves. I had to learn that making a choice also meant losing a freedom. At first that made me feel trapped. Like if it doesn't work then what? Then the duh moment of it was, well, I can try something else. Life is a choice not a destiny. That took alot of pressure off of me when I wasn't sure if I was going to do the right thing. Which the taking one day at a time comes in for me. Im am glad things are looking up for you. And thanks so much for your support.
