[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know if it happenes to everyone. [b]I think a lot of it is perception and our ability to deal with it.[/b] I'm just waiting for the period in my life when it's not kicking me in my teeth. It started when I was about 2 with a drunk father, divorce, extremely depressed mother, war for four years at 12, had to leave everyone behind if I was going to make anything out of myself, and it just keeps going on.

Intersting you say this.  I had a pretty bad childhood, when I tell my story people are constantly "feeling bad for me".  However, I simply don't look at it in a negative light.  First, I can laugh at the absurdity and then I reflect and am always finding ways to live in the NOW and to enjoy what I do have-which is actually quite a lot. There is always someone who has it worse.  I guess I don't look at it like I've been "kicked" but just that I've expernenced life and all the things that come with it, good and bad.  I think this boils down to your disposition as well, as I've never sufferered anxiety or depression, so for me, I get upset over thing for about 24 hours and then shrug my shoulders and continue to plow ahead to what is next.

As long as I have my children and as long as I have a fighting chance to beat any illness that comes my way, then life it good.  Everything else will truly work itself out.[/quote]
