• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Warmth. Being held when things get hard (that'll happen eventually... :sigh: ). Quotes that make me smile. Trees. Chai smoothies. Black nail polish. The "real me." Baggy clothing. My fiance's hair, which I can mess up. Being hired for on-campus work this summer. Flexibility. And punching drills.

I'm thankful for my health and all the wonderful people in my life.

Also, I'd like to point out that it's not enough to just be thankful. You should go volunteer with people who are lacking what you have. If you are healthy, volunteer with the sick. If you are rich, donate to alleviate poverty, if you've never been abused, help people who have. It's important to use your blessings to help others.

I am thankful for... chai and hugs, sleep and chocolate, healthy weight loss and prayer, sweet dreams and real life dreams that come true, answers to prayer and an amazing love story, a wonderful fiance who gives amazing hugs, an amazing Daddy, a wonderful set of parents and a weird but awesome older sister, my other set of "sisters," yoga, and music that inspires calmness and peace.
