Subject: Gives me hope
Hello everyone, I found a website called givesmehope.com and is just little stories people submit that gives them hope, and I thought we could start something like that on here. I keep reading and complaining myself about all the things I can't do because I'm tired or whatever, and I think we should say things we have managed to do during the day, to give hope to others who have had a rubbish day. Today, I walked down to my parents work and went to the supermarket with my dad. I changed my own bedding. I haven't had any side effects from medication. It gives me hope :) xx

I was going to move away, but I'm staying at home now. When you're not feeling great home is always good, plus I live in Tavistock so it'll be less expensive too. (about £5 for a bus ticket) xx

Girlies, You are all beautiful. Okay true, I've never seen any of you, but that little bit of support on here you give everyone else must mean you have beautiful and amazing personalities. Diets and crap are stupid and pointless. You only live once. Just accept you for who you are, you were made that way for a reason. Anyone who doesn't like it can take a hop, skip and a jump. :) xx
