Wow, thank you guys all so much for the support.

Samuel, I hope that you are hanging in there and finding bits of happiness along the journey. Hopefully, we will both come out stronger, happier people once all this has run its’ course.

Sandi and 25years, I can’t thank you enough for your words of wisdom!! After reading both of your posts I am beginning to understand what DB’n really is. It is making true changes in yourself and learning to love yourself. I guess I knew that before, but I had absolutely no idea where to even start. You both have given me some really great suggestions. Now it is up to me to begin to slowly implement them.

Sandi, to answer your question about my family, they all live out of state. I am just looking at Christmas as another day and hopefully I kind find an activity to do to keep me occupied.

My biggest challenge will definitely be going out and getting a life. I am going to look into volunteer opportunites this weekend.

Thank you guys again. My two goals right now are 1) write down things I do not like about myself/ what can I do to begin to change them. 2) Get involved in at least 1 activity.

I hope you all have a great weekend! I will keep posting on this forum and continue to read others posts.
