I am thankful for this group and MDJ. I have grown so much here and also have learned alot. I am not as agoraphobic as I was, my anxiety attacks are not that often. I have met many members that became good friends and that is precious to me.

I am thankful for my daughter and very proud of her accomplishments this year and that she got engaged to a really great man.

I am thankful for my bf, who is constantly fixing my house and is always there for me when I have anxiety attacks or any other problem, I love the way he shows his love for me.

I am thankful that I have a place to live, I have the necessities to live.

I am thankful for my family, at times they are very supportive.

I am thankful for my 2 cats, my companions all day long.
