Everyone, I want to share my feeling of happiness with you.
You have read my pain. My fears.

Now read this.

Today I discovered something that touched me deep down. I wasn't even truly looking for it but I stumbled upon it. As I was beaten down every day I often thought no progress was being made. But this happened.

And I feel HAPPY. Actually happy. It's something I haven't felt... just pure happiness and contentment in a LONG LONG time. I wasn't thinking I could again. But it's here, glowing inside me

I know I will go back to being sad. I know that this does not mean I am suddenly better. But this feeling has turned to JOY because I know I CAN feel this way again. I'm so free, so clean, so happy.

I want to spread this feeling to everyone here. It can happen. It may take WAAAYY WAYYY too much time to happen... but it can.

Thank you! I'm glad that you've found happiness!

Still waiting for it on this end, but it's nice to know that it's a real possibility.
