Staying Positive Today

Looking for work. Staying positive. Staying humble (I try) Gotta pay my bills. Can't be lazy and in a pity party for myself.

Fortunately I found therapy for my mild PTSD, and now that my brain is normalizing a bit, sobriety is more conceivable to me. I can have a great sober life. I know this. It's been awhile since I've had suicidal thoughts or been lost in a paralyzing depression. I truly am stronger and better. I feel joy at times. I hear music and it moves me emotionally. Incredible change. I get into music now like never before.

No more surprising my emotions.

I had an interview today SevenNuts. It was nerve wrecking. I left there and immediately wanted to go get beer. But I did not. Thanks for being here and for sharing.

I pulling for you that you find work soon.

Good for you for working on your depression and PTSD. Like you, I was paralyzed by depression and I had to deal with that before I was able to stop drinking. And, music can work wonders!
