Pain!

[Hope_1901]

Do you, people ever feel like your soul is hurting like literally, the emotional pain is so excruciating that your spirit is hurting and that is the worst possible feeling, the worst possible place you are in like you want to scream but you can't you are crying but there is no end to this there is no light at the end of the tunnel. How do you cope with that feeling I know it is temporary and it will go away once you take a step back and analyze things from a different perspective but what is the point in living like this again and again? It is just so exhausting

Hope_1901 we have all gone through that inner deep emotional pain at one time

or another. When it starts to last from day to day with uncontrollable crying, we must

step back and reassess the situation. Are we able to change our situation? If we can't

then we must accept what we cannot change. Knowing that crying and feeling this

deep pain doesn't bring us closer to a solution if it's not the time.

You are right in that eventually, things change.

You are also right in how exhausting this can be, which wears us down both emotionally

and physically until we are not living but just existing.

You need to regenerate during these down times. Finding methods to relax your

inner spirit though meditation and breathing can be a quick relief for the moment.

You are not alone in your feelings. xx

Yes, everything you said is 100% correct sometimes it just gets hard in that very moment to remember the techniques as little as deep breathing. Thank you 🙇 😊

Yes. You're not the only one. I'm currently going through what you described as I recently finally understood that my husband has serious mental health issues and actually has an addiction to cheating on me. I am devastated and barely functioning. He's been cheating on and off for many years now, always promising he'll never do it again, but sure enough if I look hard enough, I find proof that he's lied again. One day, when I'm strong enough, I'm going to leave him. I've made my decision, but for now I have to take it one day at a time. However, I have to be honest, many times, I've wished I had not even been born. I'm so sorry for what you are going through. The best advice I can give you is, get as much rest as you can, take care of yourself as best as you can, ie: self-care, don't isolate yourself, if possible, call someone you trust, see your doctor and tell him/her how you feel because medication and therapy helps. Keep hope alive because like it has happened before, this too shall pass and I truly believe that every time we go through something like this and come out at the other end we end up stronger than the last time. I know it can seem pointless to continue on, but remember our loved ones are counting on us, so we don't have the luxury of giving up. I don't know if you believe in God, but prayer can help too, also writing your feelings in a journal and wine :). I hope you find something that helps you cope and that this passes for you soon.

Thank you for your kind words and I am sorry that you are going through such a difficult phase Just remember your worth and you know what the right thing to do is, love, compromise, respect, and relationships are a two-way street. Whatever decision you want, take your time. Mine is also a relationship thing. And I do believe in God very much We'll get through this.

Feel your pain because right now (and too many times to count) I am feeling Exactly the same way! While not a religious person, I do believe in the power of Prayer, and right now it's about all I have. Hugs & prayers
