can you use headphones or earbuds for the music..?

i was looking through my hospital papers just now too... i was so doped up geez...
but i guess it was distracting me from the severe anxiety and depression :/ even though i was writing notes that i was still feeling depressed and anxious.. weird stuff... looking back on that stuff

we try to support each other here... might not be as good as having a friend sit with you and watch a movie or whatever ya know... but i take what i can get anymore..

i try to focus on the recovery... i slip up ALOT and i dont know anyone that doesnt but i try to be kind and gently remind myself to re-focus as soon as i catch myself... its fighting a wildfire with coals on a dry super hot day sometimes... seem to take 3 steps back and stumble forward an inch sometimes.. but sometimes we take 3 steps forward too right..?
i have focus issues... but i try to focus as best i can on good things...

when i was in the hospital they made me write a wellness recovery action plan before they would release me... of course i just quickly jotted stuff down because i wanted to get out of there fast so i could smoke a cig and relax away from people :x
but reading through the plan i wrote some good things i guess... had to be good or they would of made me re do it i guess i was thinking ?
i was grilled with 8 group meetings a day though so...(and i really dont like being around so many people, especially people i dont know...) everytime i would cry or slip or something they would re-enforce me with positivity and try to change my thought patterns... have you looked at that? WRAP is . . . | MentalHealthRecovery

they would make me tell them 1 good thing about myself, atleast 1 good thing.. but they would try to get me to do more, i just couldn't sometimes :/

can you tell me 1 good thing about you...? something positive that you like..?
