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"

hello @eudemonism @TAB @Former-Member @Shaz51

good wishes to you all for today

I am still receiving horrific text messages so have switched phone off again..

today is our wedding anniversary...we are going out later for a meal...I have asked for husband to arrange something...I have been doing the booking something for most of the time...so it is a surprise...

now of course I am dying to know where...surprises are good...

I still feel extremely drained....exhausted...at odds with myself...

no doubt you feel the same...

as we journey through these days of pain we are left with the aftermath to rest and recuperate...

forgiving ourselves too...I do struggle with this immensely..

nevertheless the sun is out...today is another day..

thanking you all again for your support...

offering same back

take care dear friends

Re: Sharing the wisdom within

hello @TAB

texts are from extremely unwell "family member" only just released after being detained for the fourth time...this time a different hospital...

had two injections then basically pushed out the door...

he is extremely delusional and i cannot deal with content of messages non stop...abusive and horrific content...

so keep on switching phone off...need on some of the time should the rest of my family need to ring me..

I am just not prepared to listen to or read any more abuse and have told him so..

he should be in hospital still....the mental health system has a lot to answer for..

yes will be good to get away from stuff...do something different...

how are things with you now? how is your back coping with your work?

I did read that you too had an horrific time at work the other day....

we have to deal with so much don't we...

I often feel how little society realises what extremes we have to put up with and at the same time appear calm and together..

hoping that you get to do something that you enjoy today Tab..
