Many of us have some things we just need to deal with alone. For some it may be a feat they are trying to accomplish, others a physical barrier to overcome, but them there's mental challenges. Now I don't mean mental as in being crazy or insane. Maybe it's depression, ridiculing oneself over failures, or harshly criticizing everything you do, good or bad. For me, it's all the above. But because I go it alone, and don't communicate my feelings, I'm told I play victim.
Am I really playing a victim simply because i.dont like to talk about my depression when it hits me hard? Or to be more harsh on myself than anyone one else because I am not happy with how something turned out that I did? That would be to say that anytime you get sad, but don't share your feelings, that you are playing a victim. Anytime you feel like a failure, but keep it bottled up, you're playing a victim.
I do not ask for attention. I do not ask for a pity party. I do not ask for hugs, a hand on my shoulder, encouragement as I push forward. I do not ask for anything other than to let me work through it alone. Regardless of someone's actions or words, the real enemy is myself, and only I can beat my own self.
Instead of looking at me and judging my ways, labeling me because of who I am, I want you to take a nice, long, thoughtful look in a mirror. Study what you see there. Study what hides behind those eyes. Find your own faults, and work on them however you see fit.
