Coming to terms with reality

Coming to terms with reality

Hi Readers, i am suffering from "mental health issues" and it is an ongoing, daily battle. I am pretty much constantly wrestling with the thoughts going on in my mind. And my psychical life seems too be suffering for it. (There is a huge difference between physical and mental ) something is definitely not right! So each day I'm waking up and going about my routine. And over the last few days, weeks and months. I have been noticing changes in my mentality toward myself, others and life. And some questions such as, what is my life about? And what should my objectives be? Have arisen... of course like we all are, I'm subject too making decisions... and there has been the same options in front of me time and time again for months on end. And it becomes rather draining and mundane. And i feel myself going around in circles like something simple just ain't connecting.

I enjoy writing, art, music. And peace of mind... walking, reading, meditation. Taking care of myself. Socialising. Etcetera. Getting ahead, getting in front. Planning, dreaming and so on. And do my best to look after myself. While accepting that it can only ever be so much.

But there just something not quite right. And I'm suffering for it on a daily basis. And I'm tired and fed up with going through the same stuff everyday. And in all honesty. Alot of my suffering comes from prospective and thought processes.

Does anyone wanna talk with me about some things that might help? In particular dealing with people no matter who they are. Can be very stressful and cause lots of procrastinating about pros and cons. In particularly people who i think about reaching out to for support. Because of dilemmas dramas and social dynamics. And picking up on things that "aint really happening" "gut feelings type of stuff " "intuition" that type of thing. And enjoying time with people is great! I just tend to be overly preoccupied with symptoms to be worried about socialising sometimes "Symptoms which involves others"

Re: Sharing the wisdom within

@Sophia1good morning, perhaps this may help.

Psalms 103:2-4 Bless the Lord, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies.

@Sophia1

An epiphany from above...

Faith in God. Is the first step toward becoming like God. Hear ye. Hear ye. And cometh to humble thy soul at my feet. - is that not the funniest thing you've heard all week?

This is a prime example of my sense of humor... I thought about it 40 minutes ago and I'm still smiling...

Re: Sharing the wisdom within

@Sophia1 sorry about that last post. It shows a struggle for power. It shows a little bit of religious excitement. I got a bad sense of humor. I was thinking about some people who have made me feel small and belittled me when the quote popped into mind. And I thought, I wonder what they'd think if they read that lol - hence making me feel good. It wasn't directed at you... It humored me, so I wanted to share. Eude.

Re: Sharing the wisdom within

that's ok @eudemonism

I did not find the quote or your comment offensive at all...

I wasn't sure what you meant then read that it was your humour...

humour is our saving grace...thank you for sharing...

did smile at the heart...dog...cat emoticons...

people who belittle anyone are not worth knowing full stop..

It has been a very long day..

I get the results tomorrow...will let you know...

@Sophia1

This morning journal entry was titled... 'the tribute... Too my humble oppressor... Will never be... Quite complete...' again food for thought.

Re: Sharing the wisdom within

hello @eudemonism

sounds as though you are having fun allowing your mind to travel to the quotes...

taking away the seriousness of all of our issues can be such a huge relief...I have found...

just letting it go for a moment and realising that there is still a person who can smile,,,laugh underneath all of the mind struggles...

Humour certainly helps me...is helping me get through stuff at present too

Re: Sharing the wisdom within

@Sophia1 from early on its been a case of others saying I've got problems and others saying they can solve the problems. Ridiculous really. Eude.
