My goal this week is to focus on turning this negativity around using law of attraction exercises. I also want to start meditating more. If none of that helps I will have to go on antidepressants again. I shouldn't be crying every damn day- especially at 5 am on my sons 6th birthday like this morning after waking up with puffy eyes from crying myself to sleep.

I know I will get through this. I just don't know how.

Oh love....so many hugs.

I think your plan sounds wise....and I am thinking of you honey.

Thanks for keeping me on the list Suze!

While grocery shopping yesterday I wandered through the wine aisle (on my way to the cheese but of course store marketers lump it all together) and admired a designer wine gift bag. My first thought was, 'how cute' and my second was, 'Bandi, you'll never ever buy wine for anyone ever again so what the heck are you doing admiring wine gift bags?' I didn't have any cravings but.....it's good to check in here and stay close. It was also a very empowering moment and helped me smile in the midst of a stressful week.

Congratulations to everyone celebrating a Milestone!!
Hugs, peace, strength and love to all....xxxx
((((bandi))))).

Sending you love, dear one. You have so much on your plate.

((((((Suze, sweetheart)))))

Black and white may be the solution!!!!!

another 24 more please,
Bandi ! I can relate to what you went through. It's such a final thing==not to be able to ever or want to drink or admire cute wine packages and etc. again.
Admire your strength.
Have a great day Everyone !

Tell it to get lost.

Stay close, Dane. Please lean on us.
I'm still here, dear Leigh.

Dear Leigh thank you for being there. I’m not myself that’s for sure. I can’t concentrate long enough to read this thread and I hope everyone’s ok. Love to All X

Dearest V? As I mentioned, don't break rule 62 & I understand that women tend to take the photo stuff more seriously than guys, but it is what it is so whatever adjustments can be made by Nick then fine. However, if not then pls don't stress yourself out! Heard your preety anyway, so relax & take it easy
Hi Ms SL? Thank you so much for compliments you give me here after I've signed in coz they uplift me a lot
On way home from work so need 24

7:54 pm in New York and checking in for another 24. It was a chilly day here, and nice to have a little bit of fall. I'm in the process of trying to help my mom fill out paperwork for care, and realizing how difficult, and ridiculous the healthcare system is, especially for the elderly.

Hope everyone in SR land is having a great day. Congrats to all of our Milestoners!
