Dear Girija:

You are very welcome.

“I think for far too long I’ve been a follower. Never made any decisions or choices for myself” – lead yourself to the right treatment for yourself and become a leader in your own life!

“We can choose what we do after sh** happens” – even better, we can choose to see it before we step into it (again) and walk around it.

There is a concept in mental health called internal locus of control vs external locus of control; the first is about being a leader in your own life, deciding (as much as possible) what is happening in your life, and the second is about being a follower, letting other people and external circumstances decide what is happening in your life.
