Clarity

I'm new here. I recently had a miscarriage. Which ended a very emotionally abusive relationship. Everyone is so worried about my depression and if I'll harm myself again. But it's hard to say that I'm the greatest I've been in so long. How do I get people to understand that things happen for a reason and that it might not be my time but I'm okay?

I think the problem that you will face is that if people truly care about you they will always worry about you on some level. I believe that’s just one way of know that they truly care.

My advice would be to be patient with them and SHOW them you’re better. Don’t fake how you’re feeling, but keep trying, stay strong and show them that you’re doing better and continuing to get better. Any improvement is good and once they see that you are doing ok they will back off some.

I’m sorry to hear about your miscarriage but I’m happy to hear you’re out of an emotionally abusive relationship for good. I truly wish the best for you and anyone is always welcome to contact me if they need to talk 🙂 just don’t be offended if it takes a while to answer my life is crazy right now.

I am so so very thankful you are feeling like you are in a good place. I am sorry about your loss but you are absolutely right, there is a purpose and a timing for everything. I honestly think the only thing you can do is just by your actions and show them. You don't have to try to convince that can be very stressful. Perhaps if you keep getting questioned you can let them know 'I am focusing on my health and being in a good spot, not where I once was." Just an idea. It has helped me not only to say it but hear the words out of my own mouth. Do be aware that if you are grieving it can come in waves and have a plan prepared for yourself just in case depression does try to settle in. An action plan when your mind is not there can be very helpful to walk through.

I believe you are feeling so much freedom and relief from the stressful situation of abuse that you are absolutely in the right place. If you need any resources concerning healing from abuse please let me know! I pray for your strength as you continue to walk this path of confidence and your good place. Best wishes!
