    After doing alot of interspective exploration and reflexion, I've realized how truely happy I am right now in my life. Comparitivly, I attempted suicide almost exactly a year ago. I most definately hit rock bottom, a low place I never want to return to. Thankfully, an intervention occured before I could take my life. At first, I was so angry and bitter that someone stepped in but now, I know it was a blessing.
    I've worked my ass off and fought for my happiness over the past year in counseling. Crawling up from the bottom was one of the most painful things I've experienced, but the most rewarding as well.

    I most definately have alot of mental health issues that will probably remain with me for the rest of my life, but I now know that I am able the rise above.

    I've finally realized that everything I need in life, everything needed to be happy has been inside of me all along.

    Sorry that sounded after school special-y, no words really do justice to how I'm feeling right now.

    I'm happy for you. It's always good to have gone through those kinds of things in the end, because they help you realize what's really important and the hard times end up being a blessing and making you a better person. As hard as something may be, it always teaches you something that you wouldn't have been able to learn, otherwise.

    Again, I am happy for you.

    I was glad to hear that you are happy and had the strength to crawl up from the bottom. Maybe now that you are back on top you can help people not go were you have been. Cheers!

    Try not to allow others to have power over you to cause you to be unhappy.
    You should be good to yourself and remain in happiness !:hurray:

    I wish I could be where you are as far as the self realization and knowing where you need to be and what you want. Go on, find yourself, it's good to see someone moving on. I need to take a bit of the wisdom that you were able to find and I need to do something with it.
