I think the hardest part is realizing that emotions override rational, and keeping my cool when that emotional burst strikes. I think it's also important for me to keep these things in perspective.

Mark, I actually have a really good friend right now who supports me. It's funny because we have a reciprocating kind of relationship. Somedays when I'm down he plays the role of counselor/motivational speaker and other days when he's down, I play that role. It's been really cool.
Great to hear! I did think to mention also being there for the person who is there for you, but at some point the thought flitted out of my grasp before I typed it out, so I'm glad the friendship does work that way for you both

I think you'll be fine, you know what you need to know to improve your self-esteem, and so you'll be able to bring a heightened awareness to your daily thoughts and activities and I'm sure you'll see positive changes.
