FamilyMan2153

I had a very bad morning. I thought things were going my way and got a kick in the pants. I was going to post how crappy I felt and some other self pity BS. Instead I starting reading a few posts and started posting some responses and low and behold I starting feeling better. Just the act of trying to help someone (emphasis on trying ) I feel much better. I am not in a bad place but in a good sober place. Thanks for all your help.

Amazing place, isn't it?

I think the simple act of getting our minds off of our own problems and thinking about others is so healing. My Mom's best advice for every time I was struggling in life was to do something for someone else.

SR makes that so easy to do - there are so many here that could use a kind word. I love that we can all contribute and make a difference to someone, no matter how long we've been a part of the community.

Peace,
Hanna

I love that post FamilyMan! It is so true.

...but please don't hold back if you want to talk about your problems. We're here to listen. Glad you are feeling better.
