YOU CAN DO THIS!!

So many of us have been emotionally where you are today and yesterday. You are fortunate to have a "friend" who even considered going with you to the doc. I have three grown children who would never consider doing so. One pretty much blames me for being mentally ill. One is afraid of it. The three just ignores it.

YOU CAN DO THIS!!!

I said not long ago that I did some wordsmithing with a phrase Dr. Phil uses in the opening of his show...yes, once in a while I do watch his show...he says, "we can do this". I change the words into "I can do this!" and try to say this each morning.

There are days I hate even the thought of "doing it again today"...smiling and acting...but it does help me to get through the day, especially days when I have to say it several times throughout the day.

YOU CAN DO THIS!!!
