May i talk to someone?
is it okay to talk to someone one here, more specifically so in a one on one manner? The last few days has been rough for me as stress and overwhelm has been through the roof. consequently i feel ashamed for my struggles… even if it is a bit of an irrational emotion to feel as i am someone who constantly wants to do better. I don’t want to allow my emotions to take control over me, because it makes me feel worse.
Hiya @nightmarelando glad you’re reaching out for support.
Stress has a way of making us feel like we’re somehow “failing,” even when we’re genuinely trying our best. The fact that you care about doing better already tells you’re someone who wants to grow and get past this feeling.
It’s also okay if your emotions feel loud right now. You don’t have to fight them or judge yourself for having them. Often, they just need a little space to be acknowledged before they settle. Feeling ashamed for struggling doesn’t mean you “should be” ashamed. Simply acknowledging how you feel is a brave brave thing to do. 💛

Thank you, i understand that despite the irrationality of it… feeling the way i do will be inevitable. Therefore i will fill ashamed of myself for it is something that feels natural, but i must do my best to not allow my emotions to consume me. This too should past, even if the darkness can be quite overwhelming at times.
@nightmarelando
Aw yes I understand how consuming emotions can feel at times and it’s definitely okay to take your time with them.
I admire your hopeful outlook despite the darkness you’re experiencing currently. Truly hoping for the sun to quickly shoo away all dark clouds and bring tons of warmth and sunshine for you. 🌻💛
Thank you, truly. May the warm light brighten any dark path you face with love and compassion. 💫🤍
