Health doesn't always come from medicine. Most of the time, it comes from peace of mind, peace in the heart, peace in the soul. It comes from laughter and love.

Peace

I didn't know how good I would feel once I truly found it

Absolutely Cherokeeman...Medication can be but a bandaid

The real effect comes from inner peace of mind and heart.

Great post my friend :)xx

But when your soul has become dark.....sometimes it's hard to let the light in. I try very hard to be positive and happy......sometimes it just doesn't happen any more....I appreciate all of those who fight each day to 'survive'

I am an Agnostic, that brings me peace of mind, peace in my heart, strength to my soul. I'm from Northern Ireland so a bit of black humour always helps around here.😉

[mizzou7016 in reply to Adlon57]

my job has made my soul very dark.....my sense of humor would definitely be called gallows humor....I laugh sometimes at things that the normal person would cringe at...

[Adlon57 in reply to mizzou7016]

Living in Northern Ireland, you have to have black humour, it is a way of life, my older sister, actually born in London, could never understand it, lived in Brussels, Donegal eventually found her haven in Devon.

If I didn’t have my psychotropic meds, I would not be able to function and work 7 days a week. My most important thing now is keeping a roof over my head. I don’t have a lot of peace in my life. I get it in bits and pieces.

[Arymretep in reply to Shnookie]

I agree, sometimes love is not enough

[Shnookie in reply to Arymretep]

I agree. Many times, there is a need for a combination of meds and inner peace combined with love and laughter for someone like me to feel good.

You are 100% correct, at least from my own experiences. Medications may help me get by with how I may be feeling and what I'm dealing with, but it's not the ultimate solution to cure what ails me. I know in my heart and soul if I had the things you've mentioned, I wouldn't be nearly as unstable as I am now. My deep desire is to find more of these things, but it can be hard to get there without the help of medication and therapy as well when it's needed. A helping hand if you will, but medications are only a band-aid to help the healing process. What will cure me to a great degree is what's within. I hope I can find it again.
