I will be seeking my own therapist today.
I have an appointment for a legal consult next week.
I wear the Serenity Prayer on my wrist every day.
I have begun walking my dogs further every day and will continue to do so.
I will respect myself more.
I will strive for mind, body & soul health.
I will aim for calm, rational approaches in all dealings with my AH.
I will live every day with a goal in mind regardless how small that goal may be.
I will not place blame on anyone nor will I continue to allow blame to be placed on me.
I will take back control and responsibility for myself and my actions.
I will believe in myself before I can expect others to believe in me.

Thank you all for your words of wisdom and prayers. Wish me luck!
....and most of all, remember.... Progress, not perfection! Be gentle with yourself, especially when you slip backwards. Make a little progress in your desired direction every day and you'll achieve your goal in due time.
