Hi All,
Things that are keeping me here when part of my sick mind tells me it would be easier to leave:
- despite the stories my mind tells me otherwise, people do love and care for me
- there is always someone to listen at the end of a support line like Beyond Blue or Life Line
- there is hope, I just can't always see it
- if I give the Drs a chance they will be able to help me
- if I have a look around me, I have a lot to be thankful for
- the past is the past, I can't change it, I can learn to accept it and live for today
- I can acknowledge the hurt and the pain and find a way to move forward
- even if I reduce my depression for a moment, that is an achievement
- I do not know what tomorrow will bring
- if I don't look for the good in life I will not see it
So what is keeping me here, the realisation that life can be more than just my depression and suicidal thoughts!
Wishing you all an opportunity to see what is possible!
Cheers from Dools
