Depression Understood Forums

Today is the day I hold my head up
Today I look you in the eyes and say “this is me accept me as I am”
Today I am on the road to recovery
Today I choose to be happy as I can be
Today is the day I begin to trust more and fear less
Right now in the moment I will stay
I will try to give today the chance it deserves to take me down the road it may lead
Please tell me that today will be the day that I start all over
Today is my day
And when I start to think about how far I come I am amazed
But then there are days I look ahead and see how far I have to go
And I get scared
Scared I am not strong enough
But then there are days like today where I am strong
Today is the day I chose to live, laugh and love often
I chose to day to show my affection to someone I care about
Today I will chose to live my life for me and not anyone else

Yes!!! This is a very good affirmation! Thank you very much for sharing!

It's hard but approach every day with what you just wrote! It should help!


Good! Good! Good! As long as you keep it in mind. I too am afraid. I slip lots of times.... & when I least expect it, I rebound....

Keep choosing positive things & things that will make you happy. You're more than deserving.
