Hello Lisa :-) I'm sorry that you've been having so much distress from this condition. I totally understand and empathize having broken down at work and having had suicidal thoughts about it. I think you're a lovely lady!! Your life doesn't have to change that much at all once you get past this so to speak. I'm still working through it too at 28, divorced, feeling that nobody will ever want me in a relationship again like this. We all work through many feelings with this, hopefully come out stronger in the end! Good luck to you!! Take care of you!! -Sarah k.
I'm so proud of you Lisa. You have come so far in such a short period. I too love sitting in my yard and feeling the breeze whisper across my head and the kiss of the sun. I wish you all the best and maybe one day we will meet. I think you should look into going to DC next year for the NAAF conference.
That is wonderful about your reunion. I saw the pics....looks like you had a wonderful time. Confidence comes in time, I have been working on mine for 28 years. So give yourself some time. Actually if you check out my new blog (Old Memories Resurfacing)....you will see that confidence will always get shakin. It's our next steps that matter. One step, one day or even one hour at a time. You are doing great.
Oh wow .....all the way from Italy !!!! How wonderful. I do hope you have a wonderful visit. You are beautiful and dont let anything take that away from you. I would go in a scarf and just rock it. :-)
Try this: think of someone else with a gripe different from yours, and say to yourself, "Well, at least I'm not _____ (name of person)!" so no ones knows but you. Then say a little prayers for that person. It may take your mind off of yourself.
Plant a Victory Garden in that yard! I used to call me garden my Secret Garden, because I also had high fences. You can watch the garden grow as you grow, have food for the family and flowers to cheer you...plus include birdbaths, banners, furniture, sculpture and umbrella tables or hammock. Your own escape and "Tahiti" can even be a spot for parties and dinners with hubby!
