Life As I Know It
Life As I Know It. Please don’t tell me I need to keep a positive attitude. I deal with my RA every day, and so I know just how emotionally and physically dangerous giving in to depression can be.

Alicia SpringerPublished 7 years ago in LongevityEver Wondered How to Love Yourself?
Love and relationships, self and others. For so long I have always wondered, "what's the point?" For as far back as I can remember, I always felt unworthy of someone's love.
