What I'm thankful for....
family, my few (but very close and cherished) friends. My intelligence, my personality. My sensitivity...although it can sometimes make me crazy, and make life hell. My past--the ups, the downs, the boring and the terrifying and the beautiful and the ugly--all of it. My present--for what its worth, I'm still around, and that certainly is something. My future--increasingly, I believe there is one. And I think it will be very good, indeed.
I'm thankful for psycho-babble, too. Its so hard to go along this journey of anxiety and voices and depression and drugs (oh, so many drugs!). I know this board is mostly about drugs, and other boards about other issues--parents, therapy, books, etc. etc.--but really, its all the same: when you come to psychobabble, your life is rough. Hopefully, as you stick around, your life gets less rough, maybe even good, and you can connect with other people. Sometimes, the most it seems you can hope for is to simply make day-to-day living bearable, or less miserable. That's OK. In a weird way, I'm kind of thankful for those dark days and nights (and weeks and months...) and the support of everyone here.
So...this was long and rambling, but...HAPPY THANKSGIVING everyone!
