To infinity & beyond!

After I attempted in December, my mom got me this small journal. She said I could do whatever with it. So I decided to fill it with quotes. But I only have a few pages. I want to complete it by the end of the year so I will ask often…. but could you do me a huge favor and message me some inspirational quotes or just nice ones or your favorite ones, basically anything lol, it would help me out a lot! I want to be able to go through this journal when I’m having a hard time, so it will help me out. Kind of part of my recovery =]

Sooo… please.. help me?

Pick yourself up off the ground and give yourself some credit. After all, you’re still breathing. You may not want to be, but you are. And I applaud you for that. Why? Because you’ve fought through the darkness and you’re still alive. That’s how it needs to stay. You are strong. Say it! “I am strong, and I can do this” Say it out loud, for everyone to hear. Let them know that you haven’t given up, that you aren’t going to give up. Remind yourself that you are strong. Sometimes, you have to be your own hero, and that’s okay. Because you know yourself best. You know your triggers, your fears, your dreams better than anyone else ever could. Use that to your advantage. Encourage yourself and do what makes you happy. Take silly chances, go outside just to breathe, walk by yourself in the dark and take in the beauty of the stars, listen to music you thought you’d never love, smile at strangers, do others simple favors, unexpectedly give someone something, tell someone you love them, dance like it’s the end of the world, wake up early and go for a run….. free yourself! You and only you have the power to change you life, to change your story, to be the person you’ve always wanted to be, to be happy! So what are you waiting for? Pick yourself up off the ground, wipe away your tears, scream as loud as you can that you are strong, and live. Set yourself free. Because you can. You’re stronger than you allow yourself to believe. So set yourself free.

I’m working on the recovery tips page again and just wanted to see if anyone could give me any more ideas for the distraction/alternatives post. So, how do you distract yourself?

It’s gonna be okay
