I've been cutting less and less and I feel overall calmer since I came on this site.

So far I've learnt that I am enough and that I can be in control and there are those who are like me and love me for who I am.

I'm learning that recovery is certainly not linear. One good day can be followed by several spent in bed. On the flip side, sometimes you'll string together some good day without even really realizing it.

Wow, such a powerful learning experience. Makes me think we should make this into a beautiful banner for people who are learning to take it day-by-day, right? Amazing. Keep being amazing, you're doing so well! Thanks so much for sharing!

I have made it 5 months since my mom died. I have managed to continue surviving almost HALF a year. Some days are harder than others. But I am carrying her memory with me.

It's hard losing mom, I lost mine more then 20 years ago. I still struggle without her but I know she is with me every day. Cherish your memories and take strength form her as she walks beside you every day

It is. In the end it was Lung Cancer that got her. I am happy for her because at least now she can breath again and she has her life back. But at the same time I am sad because she was only 64 and I wish I could have had more years with her.

The absolute most important thing of every day is taking 5 minutes to yourself, not moving, not thinking, just meditating

Perfect, and so true. Sometimes it's difficult for people (ehm me!) to realize that they (we!) need it in our lives, but it's so important. Thank you for the reminder, and for sharing. Keep up the good work! ;)
