How can I take charge of my life?

Postby deadlyhours » Sun Jan 13, 2013 4:54 pm

My life has always been a total mess and that's the least to say, no need to go through my past because I'm just fed up with it, I've been through physical/emotional abuse growing up. depressed and self-injured as a pre-teen - teen, I'm battling with an eating disorder and just ended an emotionally draining relationship...

All that has drained me so much to a point where I was just barely surviving and just trying to pass the days with no goals or hopes, and even though I'm in a lot of troubles right now I really want to just stop whining and take charge of my life... I just don't know how to do that.

Any suggestions are appreciated :)

This is the third topic in a row that I have recommended this book, but have you read:
"The Power of Now"?

Personally, it is the single most important thing I've come across to help my happiness, understanding, and feeling of peace. I was pretty depressed in my youth - with family troubles and so on), but when I came across this book that all started to slowly change.
Just a thought.

I'd start with change. Why not take the summer to volunteer or find a job which takes you away from your current life?

The only way to move forward is having self confidence and think positively to whatever you do in life. Another important thing is to never repeat the mistakes once done and avoid doing any more by consulting the person concerned for whatever doubt you have regarding any situation.

i think maybe you could get a pet..
sometimes they can bring you to your senses and point you in the right
direction when an opportunity for happiness or change comes about
dont ask how this is possible.. it just is.. i mean.. it happened to me
