What Are You Thankful For? What Are Positives in Your Life?

Hello Carenity members,

This idea was sent to me by one of our members via private message and I loved the concept. The member is hopeful that here in the depression and anxiety forum we can slowly transition from focusing on the negatives to the positives. I know we all have negatives, even those of us who are not diagnosed with depression, but we also have positive things in our life... things that we are thankful for.

I would like to challange our members here to every day or every week to think of things your are thankful for: positive things in their life or about themselves, and to post them here to begin a discussion and help others.

I will begin, I am thankful for:

1) My wife and family who supports me when I become overwhelemed from the pain from my multiple surgeries

2) A roof over my head

3) My cat who always brightens my day

I look forward to your responses.

I am thankful for

1) Waking up today

2) Having a supportive family, despite all my downs

3) Having food and and place to go

4) Having people in my life who listen to me when I a struggling.

I am thankful for my friends, they have always been there. 

I am thankful for the love of my life; my fiancé
