    Self-Acceptance

    Why are we so hard on ourselves when it comes to our appearance? Why do we not accept ourselves exactly the way that we are? We look in the mirror and point out every flaw to ourselves. Is it because someone else told us those were flaws or is it because you feel like you don’t look as good as someone else does? How many times do you look in the mirror and think, “I wish my boobs were bigger, I wish my hips were smaller, I wish my thighs weren’t so thick, I wish I could have a flat stomach, I wish my butt looked like hers, I wish…

    PTSD

    Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. This is a disorder that only war vets dealt with right? That’s what I had always thought because that’s what they would say about people who returned from war. Thank God for those of you who serve our Great Nation! You guys truly sacrifice everything! When I went to my first counseling session and I provided my background and what I was currently dealing with, the counselor stated that some of the reactions could be related to PTSD. I thought, there’s no way because I hadn’t served in war. I haven’t seen death or anything like that. I could not possibly be dealing with PTSD. Well, I…
