Hi Claire - acceptance is not an easy thing at all, it's like a denial of a former life. It doesn't happen overnight, and I think it is always a work in progress. Ultimately, acceptance doesn't mean resignation!! More of a turning point, and opportunity to do things differently. You sound strong and positive and this will help you, even when you have tough days. I hope you have friends & family to support you - you will always find support, suggestions and kindness from people on this site.
Hi thank you for your kind words. Yes acceptance is hard. I know I am alive which is good. My sister and mum do help but I feel so down at the moment. I suffer with depression anyway. I don't really know why it happened! Best wishes Claire Xx
