Learn from your mistakes Sharpy - whatever they were.
What are you going to do differently this time?

Next time I'm going to listen to my true self, and agree with her not the AV.

Sounds good. The secular connections forum on here has lots of threads and information on AVRT to help you with that.

Ym.. I'm thankful for all the comments and support. I feel all right. I'm keeping myself busy during the day and when it gets quiet I meditate.

A new day 1 is always better than the alternative.

Take heart, Sharpy. You don't fail when you stumble and fall, you fail when you don't get back up again. Just come back stronger than you were before. Not everyone succeeds at the first time but if you keep trying you will.
