Are some of us just unlucky? No matter what I do in my life, no matter what success I find, no matter how much therapy I do! My brain just can’t help but create problems for itself, feel anxious, overthink, bring itself down. I’ve struggled with an anxiety disorder amongst other things my whole life. From an outside perspective I have a lot, but no matter what’s on the outside it’s the inside that isn’t right! Are some of us just cursed to live a life where no matter what you make of it, you won’t feel good on the inside? Because from talking to others I know with serious mental health issues it really is a life long journey/struggle. But then I look at the general population of people and see a large percentage of ppl who are either self medicating or suppressing their feelings. So maybe most of us will never live a life of satisfaction? (And I say this not in a cynical way) if that’s the case honestly what’s the point of running up an up hill battle? Like why are we all still living hoping tomorrow will be better? Fear of death? I don’t know I’m just worried I’ll feel like this forever cause if I do, idek what I would do!
There are people that have distinct advantages but that doesn’t mean that the rest of us can’t live a life of peace and joy and happiness. Some of us just have to work harder than others. But life is worth living.
there are also people that have no food or water, medical attention or housing and are way worse off than we are. so it’s all relative.
What I do every day is think of and write down everything I am grateful for. That would include having a roof over my head and having food to eat and clean water to drink. It also includes my family and being able to look at the beauty of nature or listen to music. There are hundreds of things that we can be grateful for.
Everybody he has at least one thing in their life that they are struggling with. You might look at people and think they have a wonderful life but many people have major issues. Some of them are brought on by themselves others are not. I too have struggled with severe anxiety my whole life but I will never give up. Because I do find joy in my life.
Lets Face it. Life is not fair. That’s just the way it is. If you really want to get inspired listen to David Goggins on YouTube. He came from the worst background you can think of and eventually decided to pull himself out. He became a Navy seal. But his talks are very inspirational and he doesn’t believe in feeling sorry for yourself. he believes in fighting for what you want and in strengthening the mind! . anxiety happens to be the cross that I have to bear but I just do my best with it, get my therapy, and work at it with journaling, listening to strong speakers about how to get the negative thoughts out, etc. I would rather be here with anxiety and be able to enjoy a lot of life then not be here at all and miss out on things.I hope you find some peace and never ever give up!
also trevor, there is another guy on YouTube that has been so helpful to me. He is called the anxiety guy. Look him up and listen. He tells you exactly what anxiety is and is not and that we don’t have to just cope with it but we can heal. He has many great talks. I highly suggest this!
