I really needed this today Drew. My daughter is struggling with severe anxiety, depression and eating disorders. I know that in , some way, I’m helping her. Looking at me, listening all about my recovery process, your podcasts, your books ,Josh’s, Kim’s advices, plus her own therapy. But most of all my attitude towards my own recovery.
I know that something stays. An even when I want to throw up the towel, I have so much to do and take care of… 🙏🏻🤍
Totally agree with you Drew. Even in my worst days back in December when MR and I were at Dr and Chemo apts I would talk to people because I’m a talker and anxiety would come up and I would share my resources with them and how I was getting through. It’s even more exciting to see them now and hear what a difference our conversation made in their lives! Love you Big Guy!
I wonder the point of being compassionate and, at the same time, dont enable other’s anxiety even more. I see many posts getting down (which is totally fine) and it just makes me wonder if that person needed a nice word at the moment. And then, one sec later I notice that this thought is based on my own anxiety seeking reassurance. Does it make sense?
Thank you Drew for all you do! I agree, helping others helps me. I see it in my job, and I see it at my WW meetings. I congratulate and encourage others in your FB group, but I don't share much about myself. I still feel doing that leaves me open to criticism. But that's part of my recovery journey. :)
You're so on the money Drew. As a former guitar teacher I definitely grew in my own abilities and was able to teach and encourage more students. It is so true. Thanks again Drew for your encouragement.
Love the daily help in my mail. Also just loved the stained glass photo in Thursday email and wondered where it was taken from.
