Self Help Next Level

Yesterday I began describing my new found peace steps. 1. Removing myself from organized religion because it teaches self failure not being good enough, needing outside influence from a distant entity,, that most if not all my personal characteristics are flawed or sinful. I have now been able to take deep hard long looks internally which is very difficult and attempt to realise it takes ALL of my thoughts, impulses and even bad inclinations to make me, me. Its ok to be different. Its ok to like things that others may not agree with. I always hated me. Now Ill admit Im not completely in love with myself but Im getting there. I am proud of me though from looking back and seeing how strong I was/am to fight my demons and overcome multiple suicidal thoughts and actually now want to not only exist but LIVE. Id be glad to go into further details with anyone interested. 2. This is why Im back on here active. I need a like minded group of friends to really get deep and close to ( a family) that can be vulnerable with each other, encourage and love each other, share those bad or unacceptable thoughts we have but have to hide out of fear or shame. I want to continue to strip my shame if things I cant help to feel or explain but accept me as me and have others to love and accept me for me. A person or persons who when they ask How are you? They really want to know. Someone who'll call or text just to say Im thinking about you today. We all need this and this is one of the reasons we struggle is we get isolated and guilty thinking, I have a wife or husband, kids, or family that loves me why do I still feel alone? Its because we ALL NEED that deep connection from people who are just like us. I NEED PEOPLE LIKE YOU TO STAY STRONG AND STAY ME. DO YOU NEED ME? If so anyone interested, lets startOUR FAMILY WITHIN A FAMILY TODAY.

I hope you find an interesting and fun life. I hope others may be able to help you in search of whatever you are looking for. For me religious people have only slightly guided me and I wish I had listened to them - is my only regret. There are many self help books and motivational books and on youtube = just google positive thinking youtube or pinterest search for motivational quotes or anything interesting!

Whatever your needs there are people here that will help someone with a problem, an axe to grind, with Mental Health

Its about "doing u in life".
