Mentally Optimistic

My mind has felt trapped inside a void lately, that i simply can not escape from. Why is it so difficult to snap back into reality? Why do i keep running back into the same old habits? I tend to find myself stuck throughout the day, just playing out fake scenarios. Running my fingers through my hair, that is what i spend a majority of my day doing lately. Being able to express myself on here means so much. As an individual, i have no issues spilling my inner deepest thoughts for so many strangers on here to read.

Whoever is reading this just remember if you are going through the same, you are not alone. Mental illness comes in all types of forms, & you shouldn’t feel any less for dealing with it. In the United States alone, nearly one in five U.S adults live with mental illness. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, not even counting every person that comes from different walks of life. All over the world right now there is somebody just like you, screaming inside their head for help.

Everyone i have always encountered seems to deal with their inner demons differently from others. I will forever embrace the fact i have dealt with my own mental health issues. Currently it has made itself very visible in my life again. Just know any of you can overcome any issues you have been dealing with mentally. If anyone needs help, please reach out to anyone! I can not emphasize how important it is to get help. As well feel free to speak to me under the comments. It feels like a huge weight was lifted off shoulders sharing this with all of you.

A Brighter Day

My mind feels so free after a long devastating journey into the echoless void. I was finally able to escape my destructive thoughts. I took many steps forward, since then I have not looked back. I honestly woke up this morning looking ahead to accomplishing anything. It has been an ongoing battle with my mental state lately. Did I win the war finally? Of course not. Life is far from being perfect in our minds. We will always find a way to drag ourselves down mentally. We can learn to adapt to our situations or give up while we continue to drown inside our mental obstacles.

As an individual, I have felt so much better being able to give you all an insight into what has been going on inside my head. So many of you in this community has been so kind. It reminded me that we should never give up! That is why I am here today, still writing to you all.

I feel so free having the choice to spill my thoughts all over to whoever is reading. If you are reading this today, please remember you are great. No matter what you have been facing, life has a beautiful way of making things right. I have learned that the hard way throughout my journey. We should never give any power to every outside noise. I can honestly sleep better at night, applying this to my life.

A human brain is a powerful tool that could be our downfall or, it can help us do remarkable things. Utilizing our brain to all its capacity for good, can change so much of what we do in our daily lives. I won’t sit here typing away & tell you it is the easiest task. If it was, I don’t think anyone would be dealing with any mental illness. I wish that this was a fictional world with only peace & positivity. Sadly, it is not the case for our reality. But we are a collective of beautiful people who have the power to mold our reality day by day.
