Feeling down happens to all of us but think back to the days when you were down a lot more than you are now so you're making great progress and definitely heading in the right direction. The firsts we go through (even the seconds or thirds) certainly bring back those good memories and thoughts. I allow myself some time to think about them and then move on saying 'that was good times, and I'm glad to have had them in my life...I'll have many more in the future' - and believe me you will, I have no doubt!
As for HG, you're a very smart girl and you're thinking all the right healthy stuff. You have to try and be single for some time- trust me on this. Once you get to a place where you're 90% happy and the D is behind you, then you can think relationships again. Hey, maybe 2011 could be that single year for you- I mean what's the rush? You're young and single so enjoy it while it lasts
Glad you had a good holiday! Any plans for xmas? what are you getting yourself?
