This is my 4th day not thinking about wanting to die. I've been thinking it's OK, being alive, that there are even things about it I kinda like. This is a HUGE change for me.

I'm proud that I went to work today and took care of business when all I wanted to do was go back to bed.
I'm grateful that my son wants to play a game with me as soon as I stop typing this. I'm also grateful to the women here with whom I chat, and who are kind, brave, smart and encourage me to think positively.
