Spren of Kindness Posted April 30, 2023 Report Share Posted April 30, 2023 Gosh, is it really almost May already? Wow. Well, I went back and looked at last year's thread, and I've got to say: I've come a long way since then. I still have pretty significant lows, but I have a support system now, at least for what ended up being determined as anxiety. There's still other things that I'm not sure about/am researching, but even just the research has helped a lot. So my two cents will be this, then: It does get better. It can be difficult, and talking to people is scary, and there will be setbacks. But it gets better. And for those of y'all who are in the spot I was in last year: If you don't have a name for what's going on, that's okay. If it's hurting you, then that's a reason to get help. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadowed Posted April 30, 2023 Report Share Posted April 30, 2023 This is so, so important. I’m not going to be able to say anything that people haven’t said already. I’m probably just going to sound like a malfunctioning cliché-machine. But, as someone who is currently in a pretty bad place with a lot of undiagnosed stuff and as someone who has a lot of friends in similar positions to mine, I can honestly say that no one, no one, deserves to go through any sort of mental health condition. There is no one on the planet that does not deserve the utmost happiness, joy and peace, all of the time. If you feel like this, amazing. Congratulations on building a great lifestyle. But if you don’t, that’s okay. That’s completely okay, because you will get there. I know it. I love you, and I believe in you. “I will not lie by saying every day will be sunshine. But there will be sunshine again, and that is a very different thing to say. That is truth. I promise you Kaladin, you will be warm again.” 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wandering Wizard Posted May 1, 2023 Report Share Posted May 1, 2023 I uh have a few poems about my experiences that I feel I should share. Shatter Me Spoiler Shatter me Tear me down Shove me to the brink Toss me over Send me careening into the depths of Fear Loneliness Depression Suicide Take my fear Rip it Twist it Grow it into vines Strangle me in the fear of Myself Love Laughter Joy The Light Living Take my bridges Shatter them Rip them Set them on fire Leave me stranded when the storms come Alone Alone Alone Send the storms Hide me from sight in their embrace The smothering blackness Let it seep inside Choke out the light Let the rain freeze, me The lightning strike, me I don't care Anymore Anymore Anymore Take me to the eye of the storm Show the bleakness before The utter darkness to come Shove me into the darkness Show me there is no other choice No other way There never was any light, only darkness That this is the only option, to end it on my terms It’s time to say goodbye There never was another way Never Never Never Shatter Me, God Grind my bones under pestle and mortar Flay me past death Send me into the Abyss So that I can truly See Learn Grow Change Help Hope Love Break this tainted glass Rip out the blinders Obliterate my perfect little world Crumple me with pain O how did I not see it before Cries my soul As I truly see for the first time Their fear Their pain Their struggles Send me their pain Make me their rock Dump it all on me Watch it shatter me Overwhelm me to paralysis Bring back my demons Start to drag me under once more How do you help How How How Send me deeper Shatter me some more Set the world upon my shoulders Keep a steadying hand nearby as I fall Catch the world and put it back Show me that I can Encourage Support Help Teach Shatter me So that I can help Tear me down So I can grow back stronger Shove me to the brink So I can see them Toss me over To save them Send me careening into the depths To bring them back Fear Open your eyes Loneliness You are never alone Depression I am here Suicide Give a hug There is light Help Hope Love Beauty I think I know why Spoiler I think I know why You saved me All those months ago During that night When I couldn’t feel When I couldn’t care Back then I only had friends And aloof parents The floor was so nice Just didn’t want to move Didn’t know how yet But But that I would That I would end it that night And yet And yet on my knees You were there I do not remember The exact feeling But the tears come rushing back As I remember Just the pure love Such beautiful, sweet, pure love Undiluted by anything Just pure love And that night I managed to crawl into bed To not seek a knife Nor a way to end my life But instead I slept In your warm embrace And now I think I know I think I know why I was saved Why you brought me back To suffer more To suffer greater things Than ever before You taught me the meaning Behind these phrases How great the pain of searing love It’s time to get our hands dirty Be love, there’s a whole lot of hurting Why sit for a miracle When we can be one We can be the change, be the hope Be the arms that don’t let go Be a light in the dark We are where is starts And so many more So many more phrases than I can list You brought me back For them To lift them up Because they need someone Who will always be there Someone who wishes to show The pure love of Christ to all Someone who’s desire has been changed Who just wishes to help Someone who feels their pain as their own Who is overwhelmed by caring sometimes Who forgets to care for himself Who tears himself apart for them And does not regret a single second of it Who’d do it a thousand times over Each time more intense and brutal than the last For them, I would do it I was brought back for them I don’t know that I could live for another reason I don’t know that I’d want to live for another reason I was brought back to help others, not myself I was brought back different than before Maybe a new creature, I’m not sure But I’ll keep changing I’ll keep turning to you For them Because without them The world has no meaning They are my siblings now And I will defend them To my last breath Even from themselves I will always defend them And care for them And love them Because they are the reason I live For them, I was brought back Others as well But they are why I live So that I can help others I Was Brought Back For Them Know that no matter what you are going through, we all love you. And we're here to support you if you need it. I'll love you no matter who you are, because you are incredible <3 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Immortal Platypus Posted May 7, 2023 Report Share Posted May 7, 2023 1 hour ago, Cash67 said: my pfp has enough green i think... maybe? yeah, you should be fine. You could greenify it (or get someone else to do it) if you wanted to, but I don't think you have to. I think part of it is just the symbol of changing your PFP for the month, it's just showing that you're willing to change and to accept these things, and that they are real, and love/comfort the people that experience them. On the other hand, maybe I just don't know what I'm talking about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
