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

to be honest with you... I've got some serious questions and doubts about Christians, God and Jesus.. it's all about safety in numbers as far as I'm concerned-and I'm not counting on God or Jesus to come and make my problems go away...
What i figure I'll be left with instead though? Is the help of my fellow man, or my fellow man who needs help... and from my experiences... my fellow man has his own motives and agenda at heart... including myself...
I've even got serious questions and doubts about the system in this country... and Christianity and the system are two major sources of oppression as far as I'm concerned... claiming to know what the problems are... claiming to have all the answers... from my experiences-it hasn't really worked that well for myself-because it has alll come down to the judgments, opinons and actions of ordinary human beings...

Ps I'm part anti Christ and I'm part anti system I'm not going to lie to you...

Re: Sharing the wisdom within

hello @eudemonism

I find that I am very slow to get moving in the mornings at the moment...

Not getting a good block of sleep leaves us feeling lethargic and even more tired than before we went to bed ....

Medication changes can have a huge effect also..

I read that you are on blockers...I am not sure what they are or what they do...

I can well imagine that you will have some side effects until they settle down in your system along with other medication that you are on..

Getting out of the house ...in the car...dog as your faithful companion...off to the beach sounds like a brilliant idea to me..

I wish that I still had a dog..

Hope that you get to do something that you enjoy
