Last night, my husband was committed into a mental institution. It was a long dark night into what I am hopeful will be a brighter tomorrow for him.
He is severely depressed and on medication that doesn’t seem to be working. He overdosed for a second time and we couldn’t ignore it again. I am thankful that he purposely didn’t take a lethal dose of anything. He did it so he could sleep and escape.
It was a major trip up and down the emotional guidance scale for me, repeatedly. Right now, I think I am hovering between overwhelment and hopefulness.
I am going to take the lead from my amazing daughter and make a mantra out of the cards that she pulled:
- I want to feel good
- All is Well
- I can always reach for a thought that feels better.
- All is Well
- I Will Do My Best to Make the Best of It
- All is Well
- I Will Reach for the Best-Feeling Thought I Have Access To
- All is Well
My children showed me how connected they are this morning when I told them. They WANT to feel good. And when they are overwhelmed and feeling fear, they move through it quickly.
The blue birds are out in force in the backyard this morning. I am taking it as a great sign that happier times are coming.

My thoughts are with you… Being on both ends of this situation (both as the one committed and the one doing the committing), I know how tough it can be. Happier times ARE coming. Keep up those affirmations. My love to you and your family.
