I believe in myself!

I shared a few days ago about how depressed i was. Maybe internally,i still am. But from today i have started to ignore things which cause me trouble. Which disturb my peace. I deserve to be happy and no body but i can make myself happy. It was me who allowed people to affect me.who allowed others to put me in such position. I believe in myself that i can go through this and i will get myself out of this trouble and regain my peace. I from now on wards will let go of things which i can not control.

Sounds like you're gaining control of your life by setting boundaries! Fantastic friend! Good karma coming your way!

I had to set boundaries. I couldnt let my environment and people destroy me. I had to keep myself safe and protect myself and my emotions. Because no one else would do that for me.i have to do it myself.

Your writing motivates me. You are amazing. I have been caught up in choosing things that are no good for me, that even depress me and also missing out on what could be happy times that I can never get back. I just don’t feel up to much. I need change and what I can’t change I will try ignoring.

You have to remember that everything is not in your hands. In some situations you are helpless and you have to accept that. So do not worry about things you can not control. Leave it on its own. Instead, invest your time in things which you can control.

We all make bad decisions. But no one one want bad for themselves.its just that we dont know its a bad decision until we go through the consequences. It is not just you. We all are the same. But you have to believe in yourself and forgive yourself for choosing bad. Although it was but it gave you experience. And now you can learn from it. Try to find happiness in little things around you. You are strong. You really are. And you are the boss!

I saw a great saying in a pub.

"live life like a dog , if you can't eat it or hump it, then p*** on it and walk away" x

I hope I can too!! Life brings so many curves and turns. But when you choose you everyday, youll see lifes beauty. My issues are letting others in too much. Set up boundries with people that cause you suffering and lean those that support you.. keep us updated on your progress. We are in this fight together😊

Everyday is a challenge!! I hope you can do it too. Now i have had enough. I have just suffered so much, its like i have reached my limit. I can not do this anymore. So yeah, i have to set boundaries with people who hurt me. They are really close to me and i love them no matter what and i know they love me too, but sometimes i just cant take it anymore.. and for that i do have to set boundaries, to keep myself safe from what is hurting me.

Yes. Its so true... I suffered for 12 years before I reached my happiness. And now people are trying to assume they know what is best... and some people dont have control over there own lives so they want to tell others what to do. Its tough. We just have to let them know its our life to live, not theres. Or just keep distance. Im trying to break bad habbits. I can tell you 1 thing which is my days of self reflection and living in the moment & focusing on things that bring me joy... have brought me some really happy days☀️

Breaking my bad habits is something i want to start working on.. the important thing is that i am not hopeless. I know i can change and take control.

How do you make yourself happy? I used to always be so happy, always positive, although I still am for the most part but I struggle to focus on me. I want to be able to ignore things that make me unhappy buy I cant. My mind is constantly overthinking stuff and makes everything worse.
