Friday's attitude of gratitude

Something new I am trying (of course it comes from Hyland's therapy courses) is a daily attitude of gratitude. I know with depression that we tend to focus on the bad and bleak -- so to turn that around, we need to focus on what we are thankful for. Today I am thankful for my family, especially my husband. I know I don't talk about him that often, but he is wonderful. I don't know how I would make it through this without him. He is more of a rock than he knows. Of course, this is terribly stressful for him -- I think man mentality is that they fix a problem when presented with it. He can't fix this; he can help me, but he can't fix it. I am the only one that can fix it.
