Do you feel this way?

Stop.

Take a look at what you have chosen to surround yourself with. Take a look at what you have embraced. Doom. Disaster. Conspiracy. Lies. You have allowed those things to guide you. If you don't like the feelings and the emotions that come with that choice, choose a different perspective.

It really is true that misery loves company. For the most part, we see empathy as a good thing but it does have its bad side. We tend to reflect the emotions and feelings of those that surround us even if we can't agree on what is making us so feel happy or miserable. Punching a wall or screaming into a pillow while all alone doesn't help either. Punching a wall in frustration only leads to more pain which only increases the frustration. Screaming into that pillow only reinforces the bad feeling.

I work in a health related field. I had a patient whose words made me stop and think. He said that the best thing that happened to him is that when he got his diagnosis is that he realized that he had a choice. He could live his life like it was going to be his last day on earth or he could live his life believing that their was a tomorrow. He chose the latter while understanding the possible reality of the former. He appreciated every day he was given while imagining what the next day would bring.

I hate sounding so Pollyanna in a place like this. But, I do want remind you that good things happen every day. People are good even if life is hard. If you extend your hand in honesty and hope, somebody in need is sure to take it. And when the day arrives that you extend your hand in honesty and need, somebody will be there for you.

Dear VicDiaz89

I spend every day volunteering in an orphanage for children living with HIV/AIDS; the priests there actually give life where just about all hope was gone.

These children want desperately to live and live pain free and in the main for most this is achieved, however on days like to day I just wonder if we are doing them any favors.

Now before some one starts on me as they have in the past I would never pass this along to them.

Even with all the goody feelings this world is full of pain and getting worse for more than it is getting better.

I know exactly what you mean. It's not a feeling of suicidal thoughts, it's a feeling of something really bad happening just around the corner. It's what I started to feel yesterday for no reason. A feeling of impending doom or something. I too had the feeling last night of, "what's the point of life anymore." But not to where I felt like ending it. It's not a depression feeling, it's just a feeling of "what is going on in my head?" I woke up this morning so "strung out" feeling that my son wondered what was wrong. I felt as if I'd drank 10 cups of coffee, an anxious, anticipating feeling. I have no reason to feel this way, it just came out of the blue. It's the feeling you get when you're really anxious about something, like a first date, or a big test is tomorrow, or you think someone is right outside your house and it's 1:00 in the morning, that weird kind of flight of fight feeling. As I write this, I feel like I could just jump up and scream just to release the anxiety. It makes no sense whatsoever.

hahahah noway
