Hey guys, I just thought I would start a new thread for POSITIVITY! Each day let's try to focus on at least ONE good thing that we have gained from our struggles!

        I am so grateful for the opportunity to be here at HW and have the chance to meet and talk with all of you. If not for my PD, I would have missed out on meeting all the wonderful people here. I would not be blessed with such an understanding of suffering, I would most probably be a meanie. :-) I am GRATEFUL!   Idie

WE have the Happy thread and Inspiration but this sounds good too
Positive i would be a lost soul w/o HW
Having A/P as well as other diseases and being retired from geritric nursing has given me the abilty to empathize with fellow man /woman
My daughter has picked up my traits as well and she is very much capable of empthazing as well for this I am so grateful and proud

A positive thing that has come from my struggles to overcome depression and panic attacks - is being given the chance to reinvent myself from scratch, coz lets face it when you reach the bottom of the pit the only way out is up!

I now understand that people don't have to look sick to be sick. This makes me more empathetic, I think.

I agree JKRsGirl, I look at all that's wrong with me and think to myself that there has to be a reason I am going through this. I have come to the conclusion that it's because most people I meet, if they are telling me about an issue of theirs or a health problem, I can honestly say " I know how you feel" I am still learning how to enjoy those times I feel less anxious but that takes lots of practice :)

I am grateful I found this site, the support I have recieved here has had a very positive effect on myself and the way I feel about taking medications. I'm just so grateful I am sleeping better and feel a bit better.
