I had severe depression the entire time I was putting my dad away…so I do understand how easy it is to stay in bed and leave the outside world to everyone else. In those times, try to focus on the good life has to offer. Don’t get me wrong, sometimes it’s insanely difficult to see…but it is there.
Happiness can be found in your children’s laughter, a great comedy, taking a walk outside to listen to the birds sing, and even just doing something only for you. I often find great joy when I take time to be selfish, as it is something I hardly do. However you are able to find a moment to laugh, just take it and enjoy it!
I know times are not easy. But I do promise you it will get better. As always we are here for support!!!

I am so thankful that Michael Skinner is sharing his news letter with the world and becoming a great voice of hope for sexual abuse survivors!!! You can check out his website to learn more about his mission and the work he is doing.
Okay guys. Thanks so much for all of those who wish to contribute to the sexual abuse scrapbook that Texas State Univ. is putting together. Please have your story to LAS by Nov. 30th. Thanks again. I look forward to learning more about my readers.
Hugs,
Tiffani Wampler
