The Bad Days

When things get bad I can't leave the house so no one will notice my fake smiles. Life is so tiring at the moment. I keep wondering what is the point. I live for the days when I can leave my own mind behind and be another person.

I hear ya Poppy. Life can be tough. Our minds can play tricks on us. There are numerous ways to see; different perspectives... lately if been in a dark place but do get glimpses of hope and joy and peace I just don’t know how to hold onto it. I know we can’t always be happy but some of the emotions and intrusive th outs are wsy too much.

What is bothering you most? Is it sad thoughts telling you there is no hope or happiness to come? Is it fear taking hold of you?

We just have to hold on and find any little thing that we love as we wait for the pain to leave and relief to come. After every difficulty comes ease.

I am praying for you for blessings of peace love hope and joy. I am here for you ❤️

Thank you. I have never talked to people about what goes on in my life. Hiding away makes things even harder. I believe there's hope out there but I am not sure there is hope for me anymore.

There is always hope for everyone. It’s just not always easy to see or feel it but it’s here with us. At times I have been through that, that for me there’s no hope, but I believe that’s the illness’s lies.

awe hun, I feel your pain. I too have days where I just want to hide away from the world. in fact that's nearly every day. I believe things will get better though
