"Hello, how are you?" - The million-dollar question we get asked daily, as people try to show they care. But amid the caring facade, there's another question lurking within: "How am I really?" Struggling to answer, we wonder if we're coping or merely on autopilot. Disbelief and shock consume us, and we're left grappling with countless questions and the dangerous game of self-blame. "If only I had done this differently..." The battle rages on, but how do we stop this internal self-destruction?
Amid the concern of others, we find ourselves facing an internal struggle. The emotional toll seems unbearable, causing us to question every decision and action we've ever taken. It's a spiral that leads to self-doubt, regret, and the desire to rewrite our past.
Breaking free from this self-inflicted pain requires acknowledging that healing is a journey. Rather than suppressing our emotions, we should give ourselves permission to feel. Embracing vulnerability can pave the way for understanding and self-compassion.
The relentless "what ifs" and "if onlys" serve as chains, shackling us to our past mistakes. To stop killing ourselves from within, we must learn to forgive ourselves. We're only human, after all, and it's natural to make errors along the way. Breaking free from the cycle of self-destruction is no easy feat, and it's okay to ask for help. Reach out to friends, family, or a mental health professional who can offer guidance and support. Remember, seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
To those grappling with the relentless turmoil within, know that you are not alone. It's okay to struggle, and it's okay to seek help. Embrace vulnerability, release the burden of guilt, and focus on the present. By doing so, you can find a path to healing and rediscover the strength to cherish life once more. Remember, it's possible to find peace amidst the chaos, and you deserve to experience the beauty life has to offer.
