How I did it: I stopped thinking about the past so much as I had done before. I accepted life and its challenges. I got a new boyfriend, whom I can see myself spend the rest of my life with. We challenge and stimulates each other in a positive way.

Lessons & tips: The thing is, to bring positive but also possible goals into your life. Care about yourself. It's not and end station, and I can still be afraid that I'll stop being this positive about life and fall back to my more reluctant way of living. But you'll never get there, if you don't start believing it. This is my way of taking responsibility of my own life and happiness.
