hoping that I may recover

Im not sure what keeps me going other than being stubborn. Honestly, I’ve had it pretty good and was in remission and then I threw a hissy fit and stopped my meds cause I was worried about my weight. I guess recovery is keeping me going too.

Knowing that true bliss is just over the horizon. And I guess my faith in God, too.

I guess it is also fear of death for me.
Because idk if I will recover, even if I hope to do so (with or without aps)
My faith in God has been shattered by this condition idk if it will ever come back, maybe fear of death will bring it back

Curiosity regarding what might happen next. This has been a ■■■■ year for me in some respects but some amazing things have happened too. I want to see what hands I’m dealt next and I want to learn to play them to the best of my ability.

Just the idea that there is so much to learn and experience in the world. I like to try new things, always.

The only thing that keeps me going is a strong will to survive. And luck.

That’s true, curiosity. That’s a good one. It completely slipped my mind.
You never really know what the next day may bring and so on

My kid. Without her I would have given up by now. Or at least been a lot more self-destructive.

What keeps me going is my recovery from mental illness and hope for the future.

I’m much too whimsical to be able to say that something or someone keeps me going. But there are intermittent influences, my provider, another housemate, the forum, money, friends, my Bahai faith and Bahai friends.

I’m not sure what keeps me going. I have some inbuild stubbornness. I keep telling myself to give up but it doesn’t happen. If I ever figure out what it is keeping me going, I’ll post it.

The thought ‘They put me back into hospital’. And that’s the only thing that keeps me going.
