blah

has anyone ever just felt -- you know, BLAH. Like you could stay in bed all day, all night, not eat, not care?

yeah, that's kind of how i'm feeling. it's taking every ounce of energy to just do the bare minimum i need to do to get by today. I don't have the energy to care, to fight, to cry, to argue. I'm conserving what energy I have so that i can appear happy and wonderful for the kids.

I feel like I'm trapped in a hole. I can see my way out, but the shackles on my ankles won't allow me to climb out.

The shackles are your negative thoughts.

I used to feel that way everyday of my life. it's called depression, and it can be traced to insufficient levels of receptors (serotonin etc.) blah blah blah.

but really...

Every second, every moment, you can change everything.

Every time you focus on negatives you are bringing more into your life.

I know this sounds cheesy and "out of touch" but it works.

Everyday I wake up and say today I'm going to happy and full of energy and accomplish my goals.

Everyday I wake up and choose to be rich.

I choose to be happy.

Nobody, no fucking person in the world can take that away from me.

Happiness comes from inside.

Its hard, I'll admit, but when somebody does something to me and I start to get angry or sad, I think to myself, "No! I won't let it affect me, I am stronger than that!"

Tonight, as you fall asleep, say "I will sleep deeply and wake up full of energy. Tomorrow is going to be the most beautiful day of my life."

Oh, and start taking a B-Vitamin complex before you go to bed, kick start that metabolism (also improves mood)

Love,
E
