As long as you’re still eating, it’s probably ok…I’m not an expert. If things get worse, talk to someone.
Everyone else: Life stinks sometimes for everyone. The important thing is not to get too fixated on it; if you focus too much on the bad things, if you let yourself get angry or depressed…if the emotions take hold, even the best things can’t make life seem worth living. It isn’t easy to make them go away, especially when they seem justified, and especially when it’s so easy to blame everyone else.
In the end, we just have to remember what matters most. You can’t see a painting from an inch away, and you can’t find the soul of a book by reading a chapter. This life hurts, and all we can do is trust that someday it’ll be ok.
Feeling helpless? Why else do we read? Don’t we all dream about being someone who could change things, someone who matters? It’s awful. It seems that no matter how hard we work, no matter how much we want to help, nothing happens. I’m so sorry that you and they have to go through this. I’ll pray for them, and sometimes that’s all we can do.
I’m sorry, those days are awful. Barfing on paper is one of the best ways to deal with it. Again, I have no perfect solution to fix everything; no one does. But in my experience, letting it out, crying, and then taking a break from everything is one of the ways to survive it. You’re awesome, and you can do it, even if it takes a long time, even if it isn’t perfect, and even if you have to sacrifice things. There are people who can and will help you when you need it.
