Remember setbacks are a positive thing 'cause they show you have made progress. If you had never moved forward you wouldn't recognise a setback!

To true don't you think[?]

Take Care all,;)

That is a great saying Pip and one I am going to remind myself of now when I have a bad day.
And like you say it makes sense.

I just want to 'second' that quote.
Its been demonstrated to me over and over that whenever you see a 'setback' its a sure sign you are improving.
Sometimes the 'setbacks' will ripple back a bit stronger.. it means your ready to take more.

Good Quote!

Soooooooooooo True,

Setbacks really used to be my jailer, the day I was able to start accepting them is the time I moved forward, memory and habit are what brings them.

We may not be able to control setbacks but we sure have control of how we react to them, bring em on.

wow after the day I had today(I had a pretty bad panic attack, which I haven't had in a about a week which right now is good for me haha... I am starting medicine and just waiting for it to finally kick in and reach it's peak!), that quote just made me feel a whole lot better!

pips

Sorry to hear you had a bad Panic attack hun, I'm so glad the quote helped you and hope you feel better soon.

Here is a few more quotes for you that might help.

"Home Has No Magical Powers To Keep You Safe - Your Safe Place Lies Within Yourself"

You Have A Coin Which Spells The Word FEAR - On One Side Of The Coin It Reads "False Evidence Appearing Real" (This relates to a panic attack!) On The Other Side It Reads "Face Everthing And Recover!"

"Turn Your Face To The Sun And The Shadows Will Fall Behind You"

"Illness Is Not Something A Person Has It's Another Way Of Being"

"Think Of Your Adrenal Glands As Two Lemons! Every Time You Frighten Yourself With Anxious Thoughts Your Body Is Pouring Out The Adrenalin Which Causes The Symptons. Stop And Remind Yourself To Stop Squeezing Those Lemons"!

"Fearful Thoughts Bring On Fearful Feelings"

"Don't Be A Victim Of Your Own Behaviour"

"Recovery Doesn't Always Mean Being Completely Free Of Anxiety: The Aim Is To Get It Down To A More Normal Level"

Now I just have to practice in believing them! LOL

Angels fly because they take themselves lightly.

I AM BRAVE. MORE BRAVE THAN MOST OTHER PEOPLE BECAUSE I FACE MY FEARS EVERYDAY.

NO ONE IS "BETTER" OR "WORSE" THAN ANYONE ELSE. WE ARE JUST DIFFERENT.

BE CONTENT WITH MYSELF AS I AM. HAPINESS COMES FROM THE ACCEPTANCE OF MY REAL SELF NOT FROM STRIVING DESPERATELY TO PLEASE OTHERS.

ANXIETY AND PANIC ATTACKS CANNOT MAKE ME GO MAD!!.

Take Care,:flowers:

Hi Pips,

That's a good quote thank you, I've never heard that one before.

Hi Pips, :D

What a great quote and soooo true :yesyes:

When I first came to this site many moons ago LOL searching for quoteS on google helped me, this was the only time I allowed myself to google.

The one that I had written on my kitchen wall, hay, we were decorating and it stayed on there in BIG letter for me to see every morning for a long time ( took ages to decorate LOL)was the one on the home page of this site.....

Remember: YOU CANNOT CHANGE THE PAST, BUT THE FUTURE IS WHERE YOU HAVE TO SPEND THE REST OF YOUR LIFE, SO MAKE SURE THE FUTURE IS SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO

I took this quote to heart. I treid very hard to make sure I had things to look forward to, even something as small as a walk in the park a proggram on telly, or something as big as a holiday. :yesyes: :yesyes:

I do believe that this helped me too.

Thank you for sharing your quotes, LOVED then all :yesyes: :yesyes:

You take care

LOVE JILLXX

The same here. It sounds quite comfortating too, when you think about it, and I guess, even if you have setbacks it doesn't mean you're never going to improve.:)
