A thank you…

I would just like to take a moment to say that at this time last year, on Halloween, I had one of the most awful anxiety attacks of my entire life.  It just got worse and worse. I hit bottom and I almost took drastic measures.  I could have really really hurt myself and I suppose that no matter how horrible that black hole I’d fallen into was…I was meant to get out of it.

And I’d just like to state that I cannot believe how far I’ve come.  I’d just like this to be a thank-you not only my wonderful therapist who helped me overcome so much after that, but also a thank-you to my friends and family, including all the wonderful people I’ve been able to meet and talk to after my transfer to LSU.

Exactly one year ago, I wouldn’t even have been able to talk to or connect with people at all.

But now I feel more normal than I ever have in my entire life.  I’m still working on it, but I’m really really thankful for everyone who has helped me progress and continues to comfort me when I need it…

Just feeling retrospective this evening. :)
