as long as the word fixable goes with broken....life is good......we can fix everything...just sometimes we have to keep replacing the broken parts with new parts.......faith plays a big part in that for me

Hi Mizzou

That's what our healing journey is for. I'm not sure we are broken I think we have struggles that we can work on.

We all showed up here to work on ourselves.

[mizzou7016 in reply to Dolphin14]

I'm definitely broken....and I am okay with that....but I also have to understand that I am working on making the fixes that I need to survive the world....

[Dolphin14 in reply to mizzou7016]

That's a great thing Mizzou

For me the word " broken" could send me back in time. Negative words from my mother. I guess it works best for me to say I have things to work on.

[mizzou7016 in reply to Dolphin14]

sorry ma'am.....didn't mean to trigger....trick is not giving up hope.....

[Dolphin14 in reply to mizzou7016]

You did not trigger at all.

I personally just don't want to use the word for myself.

Never give up hope, I agree.

[mizzou7016 in reply to Dolphin14]

Okie...dokie....just making sure.......last thing I want to do...either unintentionally or intentionally is trigger someone

[Dolphin14 in reply to mizzou7016]

We are good

[mizzou7016]

absolutely it does....I'm working on the "why do I care what other people think phase. people are going to think what they want to think....as long as i am true to myself that's all that matters

Some people have barriers for protection.

food is my kryptonite....have always been an emotional eater....work very hard to not eat my feelings so to speak......luckily I am in a good spot right now so things are easy to deal with at the moment

[mizzou7016]

a prime example of that is Robin Williams....

[mizzou7016]

this is what keeps me motivated.....I weighed 312 lbs in this picture....I try to find outlets that don't involve food....right now I'm too busy to worry about much
