2: What holds you back from living the life you crave?

3: Are you going to do anything different today?

Family that would give me a hard time if I didn't. Otherwise I'd stay in bed with my laptop.

2: What holds you back from living the life you crave?

Being stubborn about waiting for disability to come through before I do anything new.

3: Are you going to do anything different today?

Probably not. I might do some work outside.

Life. Kids. Plus I have never learned how to just lie there and relax. I get up to stop my mind from racing

2: What holds you back from living the life you crave?

AGORAPHOBIA! Panic attacks! Constant worry. Perhaps laziness and fear of pushing myself forward.

3: Are you going to do anything different today?

Now that you mention it...NO! LOL Seriously, maybe I will. Maybe I will take a small walk. The last few days have drained me so I am more afraid but maybe a small walk....

I get this crazy idea that today is going to be different, I'm going to wake up, get out of bed and everything is going to be fine...

2: What holds you back from living the life you crave?

yeah!! what Anna said!

3: Are you going to do anything different today?

Thinking about it... maybe swinging by Target to pick up a new camera.. haha feeling a little brave today.. Target.. Sunday afternoon.. OH MY!!

Hope that its going to be a good day.

2: What holds you back from living the life you crave?

The same as most people on here I guess panic fear and that bears live outside.(had to do one lame joke its in my nature)

3: Are you going to do anything different today?

Not worry about having a panic attack try to relax and have a little bit of fun.

My dogs and their need to pee!

2: What holds you back from living the life you crave?

Money, fat and lack of ambition.

3: Are you going to do anything different today?

I thought about trying to pee standing up like Jojo did once, but decided I didn't want to clean up the mess!

You guys responded seriously.. I guess I will.. dragging my feet...

1: What motivates you to get up in the morning?

Besides the dogs, slight excitement about seeing what everyone is up to on MDJ.. I know.. sad, but true. You guys are about all I have.

2: What holds you back from living the life you crave?

The things above and my anxiety about people.. okay the total lack of wanting to be around more than one at a time or to face the judgment of others.

3: Are you going to do anything different today?

Probably nothing new.. I was thinking about Pirates today for some reason...

2: What holds you back from living the life you crave? My fear of people. Of believing or doing the wrong thing. Being used and discarded.

3: Are you going to do anything different today? YES! I'm standing up for myself, planting my feet firmly on the ground, often my hands balled into fists and I say NO. I still cry, I haven't learned to turn off the tears when I'm mad. I'm talking ALOT, to ALOT of people! Sometimes I stutter, I don't know if that could be a side effect of the meds or a way of expressing anxiety I don't feel. I have things what still make me kind of flip out, very loud noise, fast movement, and still if there are alot of men especially when I'm walking.

However, I have more pleasent things to think about everyday! I cry alot less and smile alot more!

Nothing much, I just need my coffee so the smell of it gets me going

2: What holds you back from living the life you crave?

The sad thing is that I don't crave anything from life...makes it difficult to have goals

3: Are you going to do anything different today?

Today will be a day like any other day except I challenge myself to ALWAYS try something beyond what I did yesterday

Depends on the day. If it is a day where I have things to do I get up immediately and start in. This summer however has been a series of NOTHING, so I slept till noon and did virtually nothing all day. But school starts back in a week and everything will change.

2: What holds you back from living the life you crave?

For the most part I am living the life I crave. This was my goal for a very long time. My new goal is to be more independent and be able to drive myself places.

3: Are you going to do anything different today?

Yuppers. I generally do. Even if its something small.

2: What holds you back from living the life you crave? The negative thinking in my brain.

3: Are you going to do anything different today? I hope so!
