Today has been exponentially better than yesterday.

We get to do yoga every Friday before lunch and today I felt like I was given a new hip (minus the surgery of course). I never thought that a few poses could help me as much as they did, but I feel like a new woman.

One of my main goals of being here is to break the dependency on my parents and that is one of the most daunting tasks that I've every set for myself. I'm scared, excited and a bit apprehensive.

I really need to start relying on the therapists/staff/other residents here as opposed to calling friends and family when I'm upset or lonely.

I'm very apprehensive about a lot of things, but I feel like I'm finally receiving Treatment as opposed to resisting it, like I've done many times before.

Update: We are going bowling tonight to blow off steam. It'll be really nice to get to know the girls on a less clinical level. I also got a few packages from my mom tonight. It's nice to know that I'm not completely alone here.
