Every person has their own struggles (different than others) and sometimes we expect people to understand what we're going through. But remember that it's okay even if they don't get you. Their struggles and situations might be different than yours and hence, it might be hard for them to understand. It's only you who can feel your pain. People can sympathize with you but never get it until they're at your place themselves.
I know you seek emotional support. You need someone to help you out or comfort you. And it hurts so bad when people (those who seem closer) don't treat you the way you want to be treated. It breaks you down. The world seems to be the worst place.
In such situations, you feel like being dead. You wish you never existed. You don't want to live but don't want to die either. I know this is the toughest situation one can ever be in. You feel like running away from everyone and everything. You want an escape from the reality.
Whenever you find yourself so lost, remember that you've gone through a lot all alone and still survived! You're here cause YOU'RE MEANT TO BE. God has plans for you!
Life's not a piece of cake for anyone but for some, it's a little more harder than others. And when life gets complicated, IT'S OKAY to feel low. After all, we all are humans with emotions! Hence IT'S OKAY to break down sometimes. IT'S OKAY to cry your heart out whenever you feel like it.
This is a journey. You're not meant to give up. Life chose to be tough on you so you've to choose to be tougher! IT'S OKAY if sometimes, it requires you to be vulnerable. Being vulnerable also requires a lot of courage. There will be some people telling you to stay strong and stop crying but remember, crying makes you no weaker. Never ever let 'anyone' tell you that you're weak. You're strong cause not everyone can survive the hard times but you did.
Applause yourself for getting out of bed everyday even when you don't feel like moving. There are days you might not feel alive but remember, deep down you know that you deserve better things. See, it's only you who wants people to treat you better. You know why you want that? Because you know that you deserve it! You know that you're struggling a lot and still making your way through life and you deserve something good for doing this much.
So when you know it all, why wait for others? Be your own cheerleader! Yeah i know it's not as easy as it seems but these are just the circumstances that are holding you back. YOU ARE A WINNER. Don't let these things dominate you.
Now, coming to people again, i know people around you create a huge impact on your life. Some of them really want to help you but don't know how to. But the others...they don't care what is going on with you and always try to tell you that your problems are so small to stress over. They make you feel inferior and that's where you start doubting yourself but hey, these people are not literate enough to acknowledge what mental health means and how it gets affected.
Many will tell you to avoid such people but that's actually very hard. Especially when you're at a crucial phase, it takes a lot to gather the courage of eliminating toxic people from your life. There might be different reasons (they might be close to you and if not, your current situation is somehow so unmanageable that these people stay in your life anyhow).
Now we gotta find a solution to this right? See, things might not go the same for everyone but here's something that can help. Try new things! I know this is so common to say but by "new", i mean the things you're not supposed to do cause sometimes, the things we hate make us feel most alive. For example, If you don't like rain, go out and dance in the rain and see the magic happening right there.
I know these will be the temporary moments of happiness but you can try to keep yourself engaged.
A great tip is to write notes for yourself. Discuss things with yourself and find solutions as per your situation! A healthy self-talk is important.
In the end, always know that you'll be okay. Nothing lasts forever and the same goes for these tough times too!
IT'S OKAY not to ACT strong if you don't feel like it. And not knowing how to tackle a tough situation won't make you weak at all!
Just remind yourself that you have to be responsible for your happiness so give yourself all the love you deserve.
"The happier you'll be, the stronger you'll feel"
And yeahhhh!! You're not only gonna be okay but also blossom like a flower...soon or later but one day for sure! :))
