The pain within

The pain within

@Owlunar @Bunniekins @Former-Member @Zoe7 @eudemonism Hello everyone. I think dealing and recovering from mental illness, we probably will need to face the emotional pain within. For all of us, there are reasons why we got sick, social, biological, psychological ones. Those reasons can be very painful when we face them head on.

I got to know a relative who is from my father's side. Hearing her sad story made me reflect deeper in my father’s abuse of me.

I feel excruciating pain within, so much I physically feel faint and dizzy.

Those stories are very real. They existed in our society may be more in previous generations. How human souls tormented by mistreatments, abuse of power, abuse of trust, abuse of love, abuse of goodwill.

How we were treated eventually made us ill.

Through the sufferings of illness, we realize the reality.

I hope those pains will purify my goodness inside. Be more prepared for the darkness of the world.

And by facing them, to recover bit by bit.

@Meowmy @ I'm feeling much better as apose to several months ago. Having 'people ' to reach out to in real life helps. Good relationships. Especially when myself and my illness is accepted/understood.

@Meowmyi quite often feel awful. In my mind and body... it overpowers what little motivation i have sometimes... and quite often I'll turn to vices/addictions to help me deal with this feeling...

Re: The pain within

@eudemonism sorry to hear you often don't feel well. I think it is a human things. Most people feel bad or overwhelmed often enough. It depends how you deal with those feelings. For me, I haven't deal with them well. Now I try to stay positive, think about all the good things in my life. I am physically healthy. Have a good job, can pay the bills, keep mum company, have a few friends, get out here and there. Don't lack any material things, TV, furniture, clothes,foods.

There are a lot of people much worse off in the world. I often cry over what I have lost, opportunity to marry and have own family, now lonely for thirty years. But I realise it is all in the setting we are born with. I couldn't swab my father. But it could be much worse. All I can do now is to think positive, act positive.
