Here to listen if you’re struggling
“And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    I feel so so awful. How did I make it. Everyone seemed happy. I feel like I’m going to kil myself this year and ruin my families with a big Bill for a funeral so pretending to agree this year will be better was hard. Isn’t even finished first day and I feel awful.

    @shaunie I don't think that makes you selfish, particularly if you've been through a difficult year. Remember that what's shown on social media is only a snippet of real life. You're allowed to feel what you feel, and it doesn't make you selfish, the fact you've got through this difficult year is good enough :)

    @Shaunie

    The fact that you are still going, communicating with us, and supporting others is progress in itself. You may not see your progress but I do. Let's hope 2022 is a better year :3

    @shaunie I'm really sorry to hear that! I think if that would help you, that would be a really good idea! Do they have anything you can do there, to help you through these negative thoughts?

    @Shaunie That must be really boring! Are you able to mix with other people on the ward yet, or do you still have to wait for your PCR test?
  • SienaSiena Posts: 15,681 Skive's The Limit
