I don't have control over my life, and I don't feel like I have control over my life. What happens, happens.
My whole life, I just kinda go with the flow of it. Because I don't have much control over it. I don't have a lot of abilities, and while I'm trying do the best I can, I fall into mistakes. I try to improve on it. Yet soon I will fall into another mistake or something someone will treat it as being worse than it is. It makes me feel sad or depressed, or like I can't make things any better. sigh.

No one really has control of their lives ... all we sort of have control of is how we react to things that pop up. Do we push back / do we find another path / or do we let life steamroll us. We can learn how to be strong and face all the things life throws at us like a obstacle course. we can be prepared the best we can and when needed we ask for a hand.
People give off the illusion they are in control..... they have it all planned out but life can have another plan. I have had sudden deaths / health scares and career setbacks. I hope the tide turns and I can experience a windfall like a lottery LOL but until then .......I go on, happy I am still in the game.
@toughTiger6481 We all got limited control. Some people seem to get more opportunities than others.
@tryingtosurvive2024 yeah that's true, some people do have more opportunities. Sometimes you got to create your own ❤
@Tinywhisper11 I don't know what to say to you about this. I'm sorry. 🙁
@tryingtosurvive2024 we say nothing and hug ❤❤
@Tinywhisper11 I think you just like to squeeze the daylights out of us guys. We are like oranges. You can make orange juice out of us. 🤪
@tryingtosurvive2024 hey! That's not true you can do anything you put your mind to (within reason 😁) having control over our lives may never happen, but what we do within it well that's up to us ❤ find little things that being you joy, those little things that make you smile, that's what it's all about ❤
@Tinywhisper11 Same, I feel like my brain just froze up. 🙁
@tryingtosurvive2024 you having a bad day??
@Tinywhisper11 My disability is in my brain. If for some reason I feel over whelmed, I feel like I'm shutting down. My thoughts become muddy. Yesterday sadness and confusion came over me. 😵💫
@tryingtosurvive2024 awww sweetie 🙁 I'm so sorry😥 mental health is so hard to live alongside 🙁 I understand those feelings and bad days, just know I'm always here for you ❤ hugs you tightly ❤
@Tinywhisper11 ❤ ❤❤hugs you tightly ❤❤❤ Thank you, I hope you are doing well. 😊
@tryingtosurvive2024 yeah I'm ok ❤🙂
@tryingtosurvive2024 oooo I know the feeling! Sometimes we are too busy pleasing others in hopes they don't get mad or feel some sort of way about us, that we tend to ignore our own needs, wants, and desires. This makes us depressed and feel as if our lives aren't our own. I can hear the disappointment in your text. What would make you feel like YOU finally have control over YOUR ownlife?
@MsKarma If I had more options. I feel that my learning disability has put a ceiling over me.
@tryingtosurvive2024
Do you wanna have more control over your own life? In my opinion I think you should bc it’s your own life. But it’s really what YOU want.
If you’re cool with how everything currently is, ok great.
But based on your post, it sounds like you’re not and that’s totally ok and understandable too.
I used to believe that about myself - not having a lot of abilities. At some point in my life as I continued growing I realized that I just needed a fair opportunity to truly showcase everything I can do and discovered hidden abilities within myself that before these opportunities came along even I didn’t know I had! It could be the same thing or something similar with you.
Making mistakes and trying to improve…..mistakes are a part of all of us. No one’s perfect. Even people with so many abilities are not perfect and make mistakes too. So that’s ok bc you’re just being your normal self. Trying to improve isn’t something everyone does. Only the smart ones will and since you said you’re trying to improve, that makes you a smart and willing person.
People treating your or anyone’s mistakes as something worse than it is are on them. Not on you. Why? Bc it’s a reflection of self improvements they need to work on. And it’s their own responsibility to realize that and start working on it by first accepting all that.
It makes me feel sad or depressed, or like I can't make things any better. sigh.
While I completely understand why you feel sad or depressed or can’t make things better, I really hope things like these thoughts and feelings you currently have in yourself about yourself will sooner than later be more positive bc that in itself is a gigantically hugely big improvement for yourself that was made by yourself.
Good luck with this!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
