I just talked to my Therapist about this today. She told me to smile, and make my heart smile to think of something funny my kids did that makes me laugh. She said it would only help a little, but it's a start. She also said to watch funny movies to feed my mind better things. I'm going to try it.

I'm going to try the shopping cart thing....Just hope I can fight the urge to purchase.
