why??

[blue-green-purple]

Not worth the ride. I want to get off this roller coaster.

Sorry blue-green-purple but the ride's not over yet.

In the immortal words of Robert Browning

"Grow old along with me the best is yet to be,

The last of Life for which the first was made" xx

why to what? Are you ok?

[God-sFavourite]

I often feel the same that the rollercoaster isn't worth the ride so it's better to get off. However, one thing stops me from getting off - the continuation of everything.

Trust me Blue, whatever is happening on your presence, the same is going to happen in your absence. Maybe, worse.

Is it worth breaking off for the people who will mourn you for a few hours or maybe days and then get back to work?

Whatever they say now, they will say worse after you are gone.

When death can't change anything around you then why to die?

Show them what you can do without them.

Let your spirit be a slap on their intentions!

Yeah, I get motion sickness after a while....like a merry-go-round.... you want off that ride. But there are ways to slow it down, and learning coping skills by reading what others here have done may help, take what you need and leave the rest.

You know blue-green-purple I once wrote a post on this forum entitled

"Stop the World, I Want to Get Off" it actually opened my eyes in what I had

in LIfe. Anxiety wasn't the "be all", it was a learning step that had to be conquered.

I hated changes but it was being stuck in this endless cycle of fear and loneliness that

kept me from moving forward and wanting to get off this ride.

When I look back, I realize what a waste of my life it would have been had I stepped

out of this world into oblivion. Whether people would miss me or not wasn't the

issue. The issue was that I would have robbed myself of the wonders and miracles

of Life that came after this feeling. We never know what life has in store for us but

we can hope and strive for a better existence. Remember, the power is within us.

To Change what we Can and to Accept what we can't Change.. My love to you xx

I couldn't have put it any better, just a lovely heartfelt post.

Thanks designguy, we think alike. I always agree with your inputs as they

come from my own thoughts as well. Make it a good day my friend xx
