Smile This thanksgiving, what are you grateful for?

This Thanksgiving I am grateful for These forums. You have helped me learn how to deal with my mental health issues and I am thankful to be a part of a support forum family.

I am grateful for my supportive mother and my sisters who try to make me laugh when I am so serious and help console me when I am depressed.

I am grateful for my husband, who has stuck by me thru thick and thin when others not as strong would have left. His love is unconditional.

I am grateful to my health care professionals, my pdoc and therapist who help me stay sane....and for medications that bring me back to reasonable behavior and thinking.

Lets jsut say that I am grateful for alot of things.

Hi Bizi,

I am grateful for having control over my life which I once did not have.

Today, I am grateful that the Lord allows me to continue to grow and to heal from the things that have hurt me.

I am grateful to those who accept me for who I am -- flaws and everything, and yet who are honest enough to help me to grow and break bad habits without belittling me or putting me down or acting as if they do not have quirks of their own.

I am grateful that God has given me strength to deal with the struggles I have had to deal with -- Even though I have not felt strong MANY times, I have still managed to survive the struggles.

I am grateful that there are still people who walk this earth that genuinely care about others -- people who accept responsibility for their actions, people who are honest, people who are loyal, people who are friendly...

I am grateful for the Grace that keeps me on the 'right side' of the ground.

I am grateful that NT was able to expand my knowledge and understanding of people around the world.

I am grateful for this forum, for all the encouragement you have given me and to each other.

I am grateful that when people spout of negativity I can come here and see how great everything is through the eyes of everyone's camera.

I am grateful for my pdoc and tdocs who put up with me being me and helping me when I feel that I have failed in life.

I am grateful I have Hooper in my life; she brings me such joy and makes me feel needed.

I am forever grateful for my mom who taught me right from wrong, good vs. evil, honesty, integrity and most of all how to love and to love back.

Grateful for my ability to pray.
Also for my ability to self-talk when I need to calm myself or make myself feel better.

I'm greatful for my family.
I'm greatful that my husband still has a job.
I'm thankful for breakthroughs in medication and treatments.
And I'm thankful that Thanksgiving day will soon be over, and extremely thankful that I will be able to take a long nap while hubby cleans the kitchen....

I am thankful for everyone that has graced my life,
for being a joy in a troubled health year for me,
for giving so freely of theirselves.

I am thankful for Derrick the light of my life,
he gives me so much love every day,
luckily for me he loves to help.

I am thankful for Danny and Devin my grown sons,
they both have given so many changes in the years,
and grown so much.

I am thankful for my mother,
she is the one that showed me its okay,
to be unhealthy and fight for life,
I will always be the one that needs
to have a fighting life.

Thankfully I found this room of fantastic
folks.

Donna
