Title: Thankfulness Post by: Woolspinner2000 on November 23, 2017, 10:01:30 AM Since today is Thanksgiving in America, I thought it would be appropirate to take a moment to mention something that I am thankful for. I find that it helps me to walk through the struggles if I can see hope or purpose to the pain that I have gone through or am going through, especially as relates to my experiences with BPD. Please join in. I'll start.
I realized the other day that I am thankful for the hard struggles in my marriage because that is what pushed me to seek T, and T is what has forced me to look back at my childhood. I doubt that I would have dared to begin my journey to healing, from the abuse of my childhood with an uBPDm, without having the desire to improve my marriage. Thus I am grateful for the difficulties in my marriage. I am a much stronger person now after T and hard work.

I am thankful for the people who have stuck by my side as I face the past and deal with my present reality. They are what are keeping me going right now. How can I give up on me when they haven't? (and by they I am including this board and the very special members who are here) I am even thankful for those who are now no longer 'friends' of mine as I have learned valuable lessons and by doing so have been able to not just make changes in me but to see the changes as I work here and go to therapy. Thanks for the post Wools. I too am thankful that you decided to go to T as that has put you into my life here. Thank you. |
