Hi everybody,

I am a little improved. I wanted to share that.

I think the reason I am is that I just made a decision to be. It doesn't change everything - oh yes, I still have symptoms.

But I think I just made a decision to handle the symptoms the best I can.

I told my therapist my goal for this week is more emotional stability.

He says he will settle for some smiles. I think he is just trying not to pressure me. He rushed me a bit in therapy - I rushed me too and I think he just followed along - so its mostly my fault probably.

But this week I am slowing the pace of therapy for myself.

And I just decided I would cope better, no matter what it takes.

I am a very determined and resilient individual which is very good considering all I've been through. But I think we just have to make up our minds to do it sometimes.

Doesn't mean I'm perfect - no way! Not at all - but I am doing better at this time.
