I love what LexieCat said!!!

I think we are stuck in an unhealthy cycle for so long... we feel helpless, and frustrated and angry... and then we become AWARE! *****!! Now we KNOW!!! OK! Let's do something! Let's FIX it! And off we rush to do what we do best... fix stuff.

Well, at least that's how it works for me. I become aware, sometimes I get acceptance (sometimes not!) and then I jump feet first into ACTION!! I LOVE to do things. Make things better, get on with living... "Let's get on to happiness... NOW!" I have zero patience. I want instantaneous results... I want progress (and perfection! ) NOW!

And as I work on my recovery... I'm learning to just let things be. Live just for today. Not everything has to be fixed right now, not everything thing needs me jumping all over and managing it! And maybe, just maybe, more will be revealed and what I perceive as the "truth" right now... may just change tomorrow.

I don't know if any of that even makes sense... but that's what seemed to come to my mind.

Take what you like...
