I am feeling out of place. In every aspect of my life, I so desperately need something to hold onto so; I thought my first love - writing, might help and what better way to find myself solid ground than writing?
so here's an old one that encapsulates my current emotions:
- You are not alone. You are on another planet and it may seem like no one understands you but believe me when I say, that there is someone who does. You may think that this is not true but only because the reference is yourself. That person that understands you have been here, others have been here. You're in a world with billions of people.
- Things will not get worse. The worst you will ever get to is wanting to kill yourself, believe me, I've been there. You can only go up from here.
- This is feeling is a warning sign.
- It won't last forever. No matter how lonesome you feel right now. This pain will not last because pain lies. It's the same with a broken heart. Time heals all pain.
- You still need to experience the days of joy that match this symptom. Like so many of us, you will look down at a baby fall asleep in your arms, you will cry at the stupidest film/song. You will eat delicious foods, you will once again learn to look at a view from a higher place, without wanting to fall.
- You will read books that will enrich you. They will become your most loyal friends. You will go to places that will still haven't been to.
- You will laugh, dance with friends. You will love and have sex with the one that you love. You will learn to be complete before finding that 'one'. You will go for a run, have late-night conversations with people, strangers
- Don't give up. Don't ever dwell on giving up because life will wait for you to get better. You might be stuck here for a while but life is worth living.
- Most important of all, you're worth staying alive.
