How do i fight the emotions inside my own mind?

How can a person fight the feelings they feel when they are being pulled a million different directions by there own mind?
A part of me wants to move on from my past find love again be happy again I long for that but another part of me is so scared of getting hurt and rejected again that I push everyone who gets close away out of fear. What do you do when you are scared to death of being alone the rest of your life but you also are scared to death to try to open up enough to even try to take a chance on loving again 😟

You don't fight it. Everybody is afraid and confused

@MushroomFaerie And then one day you are forced to take it in... and the world becomes something new.

@MushroomFaerie but I don't want to feel this way anymore what the heck do I do?

MushroomFaerie

@ExperienceDLT there's nothing anyone can tell you, its only something you can figure out and there will be no 'happy ending' or anything, just take one day at a time. I feel the same but only I can change it and I don't know the answers. Sometimes we are supposed to be alone with our own conflicting demons because that's apart of our journey

@MushroomFaerie what happens when you just wish the journey would end

@ExperienceDLT Move on and see what life can offer? I mean this, many will find my predicament, leaving someone I left I loved, her being a single child, to find out months later her Dad has stage 4 lung cancer, sad and tragic. If I can find a way to move on, you can

@ExperienceDLT yeah well people all over the world feel that way but once your dead, your dead forever, might as well suffer til the end because happiness was never promised to us at birth, pain is life
