Tonight I feel like writing my last words. This cycle of being hurt needs to end. I can't give anymore
@starfriend98 Hey :) when the pain is so bad I some times try a distraction or if I can I talk with someone. Talking about things helps - not allways of course but it's better than keeping it all inside. I'm sorry you're hurting so much. I'm not a listener but if you're comfortable with it - we can talk on this thread if you'd like to
I'd love to chat with you. I really appreciate this app.
I wish there was an easy way to deal with pain however the only way through is to do what scares us the most about it: feel it.
There's a thin line between feeling it and wallowing in it. Please don't cross onto the other side. The pain is not your identity. Listen to your body when it needs to be alone feeling it or when it needs to be surrounded by others or indulging in activities.
I deal with pain through:
Journaling,
Crying,
Watching something funny,
Doing something that reminds me of the good in life,
Gratitude, and
Remembering that I only have control over myself.
I appreciate this app too. I joined in August, like beginning of august during my darkest time. People have been truly supportive and I’m amazed, what I get from this app, support wise. Hope you find ways here to continue on reaching out. Best , Leanne ❤️
I used to disappear into a good book, but now it gets harder and harder to see one to completion.
Depends some days I will go for s run with the dogs sometimes I still haven't learned how to cope
