I Am Not Happy

Struggling to see the point of anything at the moment!!! I don't have anyone to talk to. I'm that person that everyone leans on when they're in need but I don't feel that I can lean on them. I'm so so sick of pretending to be ok!!

You can always take a day off? I learned a long time ago that that the same 'everyone' I was always there to help couldn't be there for me, so I relaxed and firstly took a look at my own well-being FIRST rather than others. So ...

Take time out to look after 'you'; actually, in my case it was more the fact that I needed to know myself better rather than knowing others better. It changed everything for the better once I realised that :)

@Justbychance: How do you do that, I mean to look after yourself?

For me? Firstly, there has to be a time and place where a person stands still and takes stock of his/her situation and yet some people never get to that place for varying reasons; I wouldn't go into any great detail at that, but that's what I discovered and it was a revelation to me.

Being truthful and honest about ourselves is the first step because [i]some[/i] people find themselves in a rut where the last person they give any real thought to on a deeper, almost spiritual level, is themselves. Some hide from themselves, some afraid to look at their true selves and some who don't know where to begin.

The most important issues in my life begin with my well-being above anything else.
