These are good reminders. But my first response was to feel pretty awful about being an incredibly mentally weak person. Ugh. And there are a couple of them that, given my personality, I'm never going to be doing very well. So I've got to manage it a different way. Personally, at this point I feel like I can (finally) use the tools of the 12-step program to help me cope. Hopefully, it will accomplish some of these same things. I don't think mental strength is in the cards for me soon....
Just because my reaction was to feel bad doesn't mean that it's not good info. It's good info. My reaction is my responsibility....it's just that baby Pterodactyls are very sensitive. That blue skin is thinner than it looks. [dan1 retires to his room, weeping Pterodactyl tears]

This article made me look really good. Sorry, Dan. He, he..

Baby Pterodactyls are survivors. It's been known that other huge dinosaurs eat baby dactyls and you are surviving.
And thriving.
Big hugs!
