If there is so much in your head I feel you and it is ok

I’m suffering so much right now. I am ready to cry and I welcome it as it releases toxins from the body and calms and soothes the sad anxiety that we are experiencing. Tears won’t quite come for me though.

I don’t want to be around people yet I need to reach out at the same time.....just so much seems so wrong and I need to get motivated to succeed in my dreams...

I want to be healthier among other things

but right now all I can do is this, write, to let out the pain. To be heard and be free like a bird.

We will have our time of relief. After every difficulty comes ease.

It all will be okay. Because I say so 😆

sometimes the only thing to do is let out your feelings. just do it in a way that's not harmful to you or others. poetry, reading, meditating, art, dancing, or just talking to someone else can do wonders for your stress. I hope that you can take care of yourself and am already seeing that you are accepting the future. it WILL be okay and it's up to you to manage your destiny. Best of luck! x

it takes discouragement to find a way to persist. you'll get through it! you've got the right thinking too, and I know that you're trying. you're getting so close to achieving your dreams.

Thanks 😊 🙏 that means a lot to me. I’m lying in bed which is weird for me usually I can’t even sit down even when I’m sick. I just don’t feel like myself. I hope to rest and get myself back tomorrow.

A mean girl was around me and when i saw her I had memories of what she has done

Starrlight in reply to Hb2003

That used to get to me too, with a certain girl I would relive the meanness a lot but recently I say she was the one lacking and insecure and I don’t take it personally now plus I worked on that hurt by making a collage

I find that getting good and sweaty for thirty minutes also makes me see things in a better light, though getting motivated to exercise can be the hardest when you are tormented.

What is causing so much pain right now?

Starrlight in reply to c-mac

So true!!! I’d forgotten. I’m sick today but I plan to work out as soon as I can get up and go, thanks 🙏... I am feeling discouraged because I gained a lot of weight and I’m used to running but now my knees are bad so I have to get up enough motivation to do strengthening exercises ... I’ve been trying so hard and getting nowhere so it seems...thanks for asking

Thanks so much Luna. I’ll get through this. I keep almost crying and I just wish I could it would help. I think maybe the meds block my tears. How are you?

When my daughter fiat started having seizures she and I kinda went into shock for a couple of weeks, didn't feel anything, definitely didn't cry. Then my sister came over to care for us one weekend and we watched Into the Spiderverse. My sister went to bed and then Raina and I had a long overdue cry. Art can sometimes get the juices flowing. I think it was Aristotle who wrote about the cathartic effects of watching tragedy. Maybe you can find a sad, sad movie?

You be well too

Hi Starlight, I'm sorry you feel so sad. Something that helps me a lot is let the feelings rise and fall and run their course and you will be all right. I am having a very tense day today. Went with my friend as I call him now to help him get a new pair of glasses. It went all right but it was a smaller optical place we were at and people kept coming in and there's limited capacity because of the pandemic. I need to let him go after Christmas. I need new relationships, even just more friendships, forget dating. I can't be there for him anymore, he's too attached to me. Sorry I'm going on and on, this time of year gets so crazy, I'm really not big on Christmas like I may have been as a child. It's become too much about gifts and it overwhelms me sometimes. I really hope you feel better eventually.

That's so true, rather than locking up and forcing the feelings this way or that, just let go -- and I usually feel at least a little better almost immediately!

Brilliant Wise thank you yes letting the feelings take their course. I’m sorry that’s hard even though you are the one deciding to let go it’s still a loss. I can see how Christmas can easily overwhelm. I have visitors coming for Christmas and was all excited but just today I started finding myself pressuring myself and feeling insecure. Oh well all we can do is our best then let things be how they’re gonna be and chill. P.s. I already feel better because of you. Hope you will be okay soon.

Hi Smilesalot! I am getting a lot done but all the while I am tearing up and the next minute I’m singing happily, way up and down. Exhausting. How are you doing today?

What do you think is causing the ups and downs?

Starrlight profile image
Starrlight in reply to SmilesLots

Maybe bipolar. I don’t know. I have a lot on my mind a mixture of really good with really bad going on in my life so maybe it’s just that. But isn’t that the same with everyone 😂 maybe everyone is bipolar
