Here are some affirmations I wrote out for myself when I completely crashed in my taper and every second was a fight for survival:

 

It's only temporary...it will pass

I have good true friends that love me

I am never alone

I am a strong person

There is always HOPE

I am stronger than anxiety

I am stronger than depression

I fully accept all that I am feeling

I accept myself as I am

I will live in the present moment

I forgive myself for my mistakes

I am a good and worthy person

I have much value

My life is worth living

I will get through this

I am strong and emotionally resilient

I am flooded with positive thoughts

I am calm within myself

I am at peace with myself and others

I do only what is comfortable

I honor my limitations

I focus on what I CAN do

My future is bright

I have much to look forward to

I love myself unconditionally

I am not afraid of fear

I can accomplish anything

I think only positive thoughts

I am my own safe place

I am always safe

I am in control of my anxiety

I will be okay

I'm not sure where this list of affirmations came from.  It may have been Baylissa Frederick.  Regardless, they are really good!

 

Profound healing is taking place in my body, right now

I will cope well with whatever this day brings

My body is self-healing and restores itself to good health

My mind is sound, and my body is healthy

I can feel unwell and still choose to believe that I am healing

I have done this before, and I can do it again

This is a normal reaction.  It will pass.

This is just a thought and not my reality.  I don't have to believe it.

These are just feelings, they will go away

I let go and allow the intelligence of my body to do its healing work naturally

I let go and allow my healing to take place

This won't last forever

I am grateful to be alive

I choose to take things one day at a time

I am patient as I persevere

I made it yesterday and I will make it today

I am safe right now

I'm stronger than I think

How I am feeling is normal and it is okay to feel this way.  It will pass.

I can use my coping skills to get through this

Breathe and carry on

All these feelings are present because my body is healing

I am grateful for my healing

I am proud of all I am accomplishing

I am grounded, balanced, and capable

I love and accept myself exactly as I am

I am growing stronger every day

I am getting better every day

I am capable and strong

I have the strength to make it to recovery

I love my body fully, deeply, and joyfully

My body is innately intelligent and I trust that intelligence completely

My body is self-healing and resilient

All the cells of my body are daily bathed in healing energy

I am growing in strength, with every moment that passes

I see myself vibrant, healthy, and whole

Every day, in every way, I am getting better and better

My body has its own wisdom and I trust that wisdom completely

I give myself permission to ask for what I need

I give myself permission to say "No."

I am proud of all I have accomplished

I have absolute faith in my body's ability to heal

Every cell in my body is healing in every moment

I am strong, valiant, and determined

It is okay for me to make caring for myself a priority

I am willing to ask for help when I need it

Every day, in some way, I am getting better and better

I love my body for its ability to heal

I choose to eat wisely and healthily

I speak to myself kindly and gently, as I would to someone I love dearly

My mind is sound, my brain is healing

I breathe deeply and fully.  I feel healing energy radiating throughout my body

I release the need to control the process and trust that full recovery is my outcome

The healing energy radiating through me is more powerful than anything that can happen to me

I lovingly do everything I can to nurture my body as it heals

I appreciate my body for being loyal and for doing all it can to heal

I use nature to soothe myself

I distract healthily, not to resist what is happening, but to pass the time pleasantly

I accept and make peace with the healing process

This, too, shall pass
