lee,

most of all i like and appreciate your honesty.

secondly, you and i and many others have a lot of similar or exact characteristics and traits. we are human. we error, we succeed, we fail, we are productive, we abuse substances, and the like.

seems to me you are pretty darn human and maybe try to build on to the strong and proud atttributes you have and work on the ones that are not good for you or the ones that are not healthy for you or make you happy.

easier to say than do. i do appreciate your honesty the most and secondly your strength in admitting all the good and maybe even the not so good (but manageable with effort and choices). some of us deny a lot of it. you have a lot going for you.

take care, good luck, guy

I think it was a good 'assignment'. Always, it is best to look at the more positive, and to list it like that, you have it down, you have it to look at when you are feeling down. I could not do such a positive thing right now, although now would probably be the best time to do it, since I am down. Your therapist seems to be a smart person, and has you concentrating on what is important. I hope your next appointment is good.
