Everyday battle

[Peacewithin1]

People are going through worse things than Me. I try to remind myself everyday but I feel like I'm battling myself. I want to be happy and vibrant but I just can't and I don't know why. Anyways, half of me feels like giving up and the other half doesn't. Idk what to expect anymore. I'm so tired now I'm just going to see what happens next.

The first thing i could advise you to do is STOP comparing yourself to anyone else. even though both you and I suffer from the same condition that is anxiety, you simply cannot compare yourself to anyone else, have some self compassion and care about what you're going through not what anyone else is.

ITS SO SCARY and u could not agree more with that but you sill survive this and come out the other side someday so strong

I understand what you are saying. I read and or hear about very sad, disturbing news stories about people, both adult and children who have or are going through horrible issues. Mine look very minor compared to them. I try to tell myself to stop fretting, dig up some courage. Unfortunately it doesn't work, then I feel totally hopeless and wonder if and how I can continue to go on.

I go through the same thing all the time. I know that we shouldn’t compare ourselves to others but sometimes I think that if I tell myself “at least you’re not it their shoes “ it could somehow get me to thinking about my own problems in a different way. Sometimes it helps other times like today I just get more confused and upset about how I feel.

Everyone has problems of some kind. That doesn’t make yours hurt you any less. I do that too though. I watch the news and see people with horrible tragedies and think to myself I’m actuslly pretty blessed. Their child just got shot, or they don’t have clean water, or they lost everything they had in a fire. My news comes from a major city in VA so I see a lot of bad stuff, not to mention the world news and natural disasters etc. I wish some of us lived close so we could do things to cheer each other up. I would end up getting on everyone’s nerves though if history is any indication. Try to find something, anything you love and focus on that. I’m obsessed with my pink couch cottage! It’s my happy place. Like how some people picture the beach. I wish you well. I’m here to talk if you ever need a friend. ❤️
