Life Struggle : Depression
This thing called emotional stress.
The pressure of having to survive everyday life is unbearable at times. Intimidation, peer pressure rises, misunderstanding, you really don't want it to get to you but sadly it magically does.
You try hard for it not to get to you. No way, that's literally what you breath in daily.
What to do? What to do?
Depression sets in, next totally giving up on life fills your mind.
The only option you think of is ending it by commiting suicide, yes it clouds your mind.
There is no help coming, there is no saving grace.
You feel talking about it will cause you danger by making you more depressed.
You can't even face it, your believe is about to explode.
And when it is done, then only will people start coming out to understand how you felt.
Some will pity you, some will blame your corpse.
Others will criticize the situation.
What is the use? You are no more.
Emotional stress is real and can be life threatening.
I recently experience a little stress, I fought it and was able not to go deep.
Truth is, what I used to hold myself was.
"You will be fine"
"It's just a stage that will pass"
"What will happen if you give up"
"You are not the only one who have felt this way"
"You will live to remember this day"
"You have lots of things to celebrate in no time"
"Shot your eyes and ears, walk through the storm in boldness"
"Failure is not the end"
And lots more, it has to do with a lot to survive this.
Life can be mean at times, but never ever give in to asking questions with lots of "why?" or use the words with "if" and "I wish".
Those will suppress your mind.
You have to live for yourself, it's good to be alive.
Emotional stress, have you experienced it before?
How were you able to pull it off?
I know there are more to it.
Just wanted to make do with this little.
Thank you very much for stopping by.
Keep living now you are opportuned.
Have a blessed new week ahead.
I keep telling myself that I'm not depressed, that I'm just overthinking it but when certain thoughts creep into my head it takes only the grace of God to overcome it.
I'm an extremely emotional person and I overthink a lot so most times, i fall prey to this, I tell myself that there's no reason for me to be depressed but I've tried harming myself twice, it's recently as I moved closer to God, I no longer think of harming myself, the thought still comes but it doesn't linger.
People have seen worse and honestly I don't wish that on anyone so I try the little I can to put smiles on people's faces and be overly nice, you never know what a person is going through.
Seeking God through Prayers and fasting helps a lot, trying not to be alone, being with family and loved ones help too.
Thank you very much friend for this, I really appreciate.
I got a calming effect while reading this.
Truly when you let it get to your head, it slowly creep in and becomes the boss.
Taking full control of you, manifesting in any way it wants.
I'm glad I could be of help 🤗
Thank you very much too for sharing 😊
Thank you ☺️
Do enjoy the new week 🤗
And you too 🤗
Alright
Hey @jmis101 emotional stress is certainly an issue these days under such stressful times.
Meditation is a great way to release stress, i have always found that being focused and grateful for things i do have in my life is a good way to start pulling yourself from depression.
Remembering to myself daily that tough times never last, it is tough people that do ultimately is also helpful.
Remember to talk to people a burden shared is a burden halfed.
Have a blessed one my friend.
