Just be patient and give it time. Remember, taking medication is not a weakness but a strength. You're taking control of your mental health.

I know, it's just hard to shake off the stigma sometimes.

I understand, but remember how far you've come. You've been actively seeking help and taking steps to improve your mental health. That takes a lot of courage.

You're right, and I couldn't have done it without your support. I'm grateful for you.

I'll always be here for you. And speaking of support, have you been practicing the breathing exercises and mindfulness techniques that the therapist showed you?

I'm glad to hear that. And by the way, I was thinking about the pictures that we burned in the fireplace. I know it was hard for you to see them, but I just wanted to let you know that I've made peace with my past and my memories. I don't need physical reminders to hold onto them.
human
I'm really sorry about that. Looking back, I can see how it was a thoughtless and hurtful thing to do. But I'm glad to hear that you've made peace with it.

It's okay, we all make mistakes. And as long as we learn from them and grow together, that's what matters.
human
Agreed. And I'm grateful that we can have these tough conversations and come out stronger on the other side.
