Had a follow up appt with my doc today. My new mantra is: Horribly depressed, but trying my best! 
had to get my little boost of serotonin when I left so I got my favorite energy drink.
It’s ok to not have it all together right now. Just in case anyone else needed the reminder.
Ty for posting this🫶✨️
Congratulations on feeling your feelings. I totally get it. We numbed, escaped, ran from all these feelings because we didn’t know how to deal and process them. Recovery is about learning to feel, deal, and heal.
I have 2 girls that work with me in my office. One has been with me for 18 years, the other one 3 years. This morning they were saying how they’ve only seen me mad twice. At first I found myself defending myself and embarrassed that I got mad (2 times in all the years lol). Then I thought to myself how f**ked up it is that I think showing emotions is a bad thing 
We all have our work to do, and it’s good to see you’re working on yourself
I love this insight - thank you for sharing! 
Absolutely girl. I knew someone needed to hear it! 
Thank you! 
You got this girl!!
Love this! 
Thank you for this post. Depression is so debilitating. I'm going through it, too. It's good not to feel alone.
Honestly connecting with people on here and sharing in experiences of depression/anxiety is one of the things encouraging me to push through.
Me too
It's about the direction, not the speed of travel. The destination will define the journey. I just lost a looking post. Point was, allowing another's opinion of one's sobriety to negatively impact one's effort or direction will only result in being left with self to blame.
PROGRESS NOT PERFECTION. I go to meetings not to agree or be liked by everyone, but because I need a constant reminder. And similar to what you stated Allie, being able to share, in a pretty safe place free of too much judgement... it's a big part of what motivates many of us.
I noticed you used a Taylor lyric in this post- there’s a Taylor Swift recovery group called Swift Steps. Give it a Google search or on Facebook or something. It’s really cool.
Cool, I had no idea! Thank you!
That's very sweet of you. I have an excellent therapist and a great sponsor. I'm doing what I can. Today has been a good day!
One day is all we have
Truth
Love it
