After a day with a lot of thinking and reflecting as well as some seriously intense but needed talking with my roommate, today starts a new beginning. I will no longer say I'm doing/trying my best unless I truly feel I am doing so. I will be focusing more on breaking the negative cycles in my life and replacing them with new positive and self building ones. I will now no longer allow myself to get by with everything I do being all or nothing when certain important things need to be fixed in my life and baby steps are what will get me there fastest if I stick to my guns and follow through. I have friends here and in real life that are more than willing to stand by my side as long as I'm willing to put in the work I need to with no questions asked unless I really don't understand or comprehend something. This has been a long, hard, painful process that is about to get even harder but any change worth making is worth doing whatever it takes to get there without changing the best things about you as an individual and as a human being. I'm going to need all the support, love, and help everyone here and in my real life is willing to give me and I need to constantly remind myself to quit trying to do everything alone, stop being stubborn, and ask for help when I need it. So begins the next phase of me truly trying to be a healthier me and putting myself first because even though I care about others I matter too and I need to start taking care of me before I can truly be a help to anyone else.
