Lately it has been 1 hour at a time just pushing through saying it will pass I don't want to do this for 60 yrs but taking one task at a time sometimes thats all one can do. I keep saying that to my daughter little steps take one day at a time you will get better you will she will get better. I know i need to say that to me too I will get better but sometime it is so hard to see through all the pain and sadness. Just like when i finally accepted i needed meds they seem to work better without the side effects. I think one has to believe in the therapy for it to work or else why go. hope my post is okay somedays i really believe i am not going to make it but somehow i do.

I think most of us, at some point, have had to use the "one day at a time" mantra.

Lately I've really had to focus on today, and only today. The thought of the rest of my life terrifies and overwhelms me. I try to tell myself that I will get better, but it feels like the more time that goes on, the worse I get. The good news is, I can only get so much worse before I really will start to get better. That's the day I'm living for.
