That may feel like chickening out and avoiding recovery and healing. But there are times when it is completely OK to make that choice. Because taking a breather doesn't mean you don't continue forward when you've gathered the strength to do so.
Thank you lillamy, I have started to be hard on myself for not working hard enough on my recovery!
Take it Easy is one of the slogans I am going to put into use.
I am crazy with this dang "change of life" or pancreas, gall bladder, who knows?
2 grown men, my sons living with me. Yeah, I know.
And, I am not taking anything for my depressive disorder until I see a doctor in July.
Why not make myself hurt worse? It is one thing I am
good at doing to myself.
Jesus. I was not expecting all that to come out.
I think I need my depressive meds earlier. Much, much earlier. July?
In the meantime, I will remember: Take it easy.

Lizatola, thank you so much for this thread and sharing your truth.
It has been an eye opener for me personally, and I am grateful for that.
