For years I have been trying to run away from who I had become and why.
Today is a new start for me. In the last month I had two hospital stays due to my disorder and failure to completely follow discharge instructions. Today I am starting a day program called the Secure Day Program and am planning to be open minded to all of the groups.

Sounds like a great idea. We should know ourselves well.
I totally agree. Just think how much more relaxed and at peace we would be.
I agree with you both.
I'm pleased you do. Great minds think alike!
