What Are You Grateful For Today?

I am grateful today for today is the second day i did not take any painkillers or antispastic meds. I started medical CBD Oil and have been upping the dose until relief is noticed. I am on 3ml. 0.75 four times a day.

Soooo that being said without painkillers i was not constipated from side effects and was able to take an effortless dooodooo. I got used to kicking..rocking... slapping the wall.. clenching my face...breathing like i will pass out soon... worrying about bursting blood vessel in brain from trying to crap.

Today grateful i noticed a positive change which identified the dose of CBD.
 
I’m grateful that my first experience with a psychiatrist was so positive that I feel like the weight of the world has been lifted off my shoulders. I’m exhausted but I have such a sense of relief that someone else is going to pick me up when I fall. And teach me how to pick myself up. I’m also grateful to my T for pushing me where I didn’t want to go and for the referral.

And forever grateful to my darling kitties and dogs who’ve curled up in bed with me so early in the evening. They are my everything.
 
Grateful for finding myself more present today. I can feel textures and hear sounds, and I know what my body needs. I can even connect a little. I can dream, and recognize when I'm triggered. Getting more sleep helps.

Grateful for enough food and water and blankets and ice. Grateful for the world still being here when I'm ready to find my way back.
 
Being given a giant sassafras root that makes quite a striking yard ornament plus other potential, having the stinging nettle growing like crazy in the giant pots I planted them in, making friends with the recently arrived horse next door so I can have a new buddy to hang with and talk to, spritzer bottles that serve as my portable a/c, and all the automatic bodily functions that keep me going.
