that I can't just wake up one day and have my life be magically fixed, I'm going to ... not be happy.

Seriously people, I'm not expecting my life to be fixed by itself overnight, I know it's a process, I'd be dumb to think that in one night 21 years of bad habits can be changed.

*sigh* Perhaps I'm just not explaining my thoughts clearly enough for them if they're going to make that comment.

Yeah, I can see where that would be frustrating.

But at least they're not telling you to "snap out of it." There are some people who think that you can change overnight, and I think dealing with them is even worse!

Yes, the "snap out of it" crowd are very obnoxious.
