Things Are Starting To Look Up

Things are starting to look up I think.
I have 40 days today.
Yesterday was a pretty good day and today was even better. My female manager even came up to me and told me I looked beautiful and refreshed today! Made me feel so good.

I've come to a place of peace with the problem my husband has. I'm still hopeful that justice will be done but I can't give that woman anymore space in my head. She is a poison. My husband seems more at peace more too.

I've had no cravings and for now, the depression has lifted.
I haven't treated myself in a long while so while I was at work my husband bought, hooked up an XBOX ONE! I love the Assassins Creed series!

I'm not sure if it's been time, my brain healing, both our what that has me feeling better but I'm trying to just take it day by day and not analyze it too much. If this recovery, I like it!

Many congratulations on 40 days

It's really possible to see such a great physical difference after 40 days and so wonderful when others notice too. someone asked me if I'd had work done Keep up the great work- it does get even better

Peanut, congrats on 40 days!

It sounds to me that you are learning the core of the Serenity Prayer - have the wisdom to accept the things we cannot change, the courage to change the things we can and the wisdom to know the difference. I repeat that to myself whenever I feel frustrated, angry, etc. it helps.
