Reach out to people more. I’ve never been good at it, which is why I don’t post much here. I’ve always felt like I don’t want to burden other people by asking for help. That is going to change.
Get involved with my community and STOP THINKING IT’S ALL ABOUT ME. Every month I will find a new charitable organization to which I can lend a hand. I have found my first for January; a food bank that needs help collecting donations of non-perishable foods.

- with all the people that post advice on this forum, this should give you a clue that alot of people are willing to help if you allow them, heck even if someone acts as a sounding board when you need to talk out loud, that's extremely helpful, in the end don't be afraid to ask for help, the worst thing that could happen is that people can say NO but if you don't ask for help you are just saying NO to yourself
I will respect myself enough to let go of people who don't respect or value me. And I'll be OK with it.
I'll know that I'm worthy of respect, value, and compassion...whether or not I get them from others. If I don't get them from others, it's necessary to feel MORE worthy...not less.
I'll trust myself to act in my best interests and in the best interests of my children.
