It really doesnt matter as I cannot change what Ive done but I would have made different decisions regarding pretty much everything; job, residence, how i handled the breakup..all of it.

I am sure we all would J... we can only learn from it, grow, become better for it. You will, just have some faith in yourself.

But you are totally right. There is no purpose in looking backwards. Focus on what is, and where you can go from here. The possibilities are endless.
Meanwhile, at the risk of sounding cheesy, sending some hugs your way. The rough days can really suck.

Hang in there J.
It does get easier...I know you are sick of hearing it...
But as a wise younger lady told me yesterday...slowly you will heal and all at once you won't realize that you are healed.
Hugs to you too...

Hugs to you too... There is a lot of truth to this. When I thought I was at my lowest what I didn't realize was that I had grown tremendously. Realizing what has happened and knowing that it did and that you can learn from it and move onward and upward is 3/4 of the battle. The other 25% of this well.......that is ongoing everyday stress that we all deal with. At least the other 75 is in the past and you can move on from there. It doesn't happen over night or even in a short time. When you feel like you haven't accomplished much, look back to when you were at your lowest point and where you have gone since then. You will see that you have come leaps and bounds. Sounds, crazy I know, but take it from someone who has been on an emotional roller coaster for two years. Pretty soon the ups will become bigger than the downs. When you hit a down learn from it and move on. There are lots of things that I would have done differently and the people that need to know that are well aware of that. All I can say is that every day starts something new and it is what you make of it. Live for today not three months ago. You will be a stronger person for it.

That is when you need to reach out to others. You have many friends, including on here. It is time, honey, to ask for that hand - to allow those hands that are offering help, let them help you. Please, you aren't alone.

You probably need some meds. They aren't a cureall but they help you deal.
If you aren't on any, then consider it. NOW.

Oh... and look forward, we have ALL made many bad mistakes in the past. If you focus on them, you can't see the options ahead of you.

You CAN get through this. You have gotten through worse, I'm sure. Don't let it overcome you. You are worth more than that.
