You need comfort and positivity in your life whenever you feel down or too overwhelmed. It's natural to look for comfort from the people close to us. But sometimes it's different. There are people out there who care and show up during your worst moments. They try to calm you down, offer kind words, and tell you to stay positive and maintain a positive mindset. They keep telling you not to overthink without any reason. You are told to stay calm, stay positive, act normal, and not do anything that could make things worse. But those same kind and comforting words and actions can feel frustrating to you at that moment. You may feel suffocated, irritated, angry, frustrated, and overwhelmed. And the reason is simple and completely normal.
          
          The reason is that you want people to tell you that your emotions are real and that they make sense because you have been hurt in many ways. Your feelings are valid, and the state you are in is slowly eating you up. You just want people to see your real struggle, the one you can't show them because you are the only one who truly feels it. You can't even explain it to them because sometimes words aren't enough to describe what is actually happening, what you have become, and what you are turning into. You want people to see what has made you this way. You want them to see the reasons behind that pretending face of yours. You want people to tell you, "Yes, we can see it. It isn't easy to handle all of this. You are brave for going through it. Your pain can't be fully described, but it can be seen in the way you have become so good at pretending that everything is okay."
          
          You want people to first notice that something has happened and is still happening, and that it has reached a point where you have started pretending that nothing hurts anymore. But deep inside, the silent battle is at its peak. You are a warrior fighting alone. Let me tell you, you deserve to be seen, heard, and comforted.

Sometimes you feel like you are in a very complicated situation, and everything feels extremely frustrating. You become confused by your own emotions and start behaving differently. Your behavior changes in unusual ways, even you aren't sure what is happening. Everything feels too overwhelming, and it feels like you are going to burst at any moment. These can be signs of mental frustration that has been building up for a long time. It slowly starts taking root inside you and gradually begins to surround you. People begin commenting on your behavior, even behind your back, just because of the sudden changes they notice. All of this adds to your overthinking and makes you feel even more miserable.
          
          We all overthink and make expectations about what might happen. We imagine the worst situations and even predict how people might react. We prepare ourselves for their harsh words and actions, but when we are actually in that situation, everything feels different from what we imagined. Even if you expected the worst in your mind, it still hurts deeply when it really happens. Words hurts, they stay with you like permanent scars. The more you think about them, the more intense the pain becomes.
          
          You are not a machine that people can expect to use however they want. If they can't accept you with your emotions and flaws, then they truly don't deserve you. The more you take their words and behavior to heart, the more it affects your inner peace and your ability to become better. I know I am sitting here giving advice without feeling your pain, but I truly want you to accept yourself with all your emotions and not put yourself down just because people don't know your worth. It's just that some people fail to see your value. If someone made you feel worse today, then please don't blame yourself any further. Sit quietly, give your mind some peace, and don't let negativity take over. People don't always understand what someone else is going through, and that's the truth.

Don't make quick decisions when you are overwhelmed because, at that time, everything feels out of control. Your emotions are at their peak, and they push you towards making the worst decisions. You may do things that you regret later, so it's better not to make your life even more miserable when you are already in a miserable state. All kinds of negative and angry thoughts start appearing in your mind. That negative pull inside you takes control and leads you to make the situation even worse.
          
          I understand these kinds of situations where you are alone, battling with yourself, trying to stay composed for the sake of people who don't understand you or your condition, not even a little. To some people, it looks like overreacting or throwing tantrums, but the reality is very different. One of the biggest problems is when people refuse to even listen to your explanation because, in their minds, nothing you say is right. Sometimes, the environment people create becomes so suffocating that you just want them to forget about your existence. Thinking like this can be a sign that you have been suppressing your feelings for too long, even beyond the stage of emotional numbness. It is a reminder that you need to start paying attention to your mental health.
          
          We are not just living; we are surviving, and that is part of life. To survive, you need to be aware of the situation you are in. There are positive ways to survive, so you don't have to keep running towards negativity. Sometimes, negativity comes running towards you for no reason because it has become a habit, and habits take time to change. How much time? That depends on you. It may look impossible, but it isn't. One of the biggest lies an overthinking mind tells you is that it is impossible to become a better person. If you keep believing that lie, you may never break out of the overthinking loop. The choice is yours. You are worthy of becoming the best version of yourself.

Friendship is a relationship that isn't connected by blood, yet it connects people so deeply that many find it easier to share their life problems with their friends than with their blood relatives. It is a bond that brings strangers together and slowly builds trust between them. I know nothing is perfect, and friendship is no exception. It doesn't have to be perfect. There will be ups and downs, arguments and forgiveness. Some people have been friends for months, while others have stayed friends for many years. Some are still close to their old friends, while others have different stories, and that's okay.
          
          There are people out there who call themselves unlucky or unfortunate just because their friends left them. I'm not here to lecture you about things you already know. I'm writing about this topic because many people are not only hurting their mental health, but they are also shaping their thinking in a negative way that won't help anyone. No one is born perfect, and humans don't have to be perfect. We are simply human beings with emotions. You did your best. You did your part. You showed genuine emotions, and you truly cared. But people have their own minds and make their own decisions. You can't force anyone to stay or choose your bond.
          
          You are not an unworthy person just because you don't have old friendships anymore. People choose to leave. Sometimes they give reasons, and sometimes they don't. You shouldn't keep putting yourself down because of that. You did whatever you could, so focus on that. Why always focus on the negative part? People come and go, and some bonds are hard to forget, but you can't stay stuck forever. I know it isn't easy, and I understand that no one can truly measure your disappointment or your pain. But you shouldn't carry that burden for too long. I hope the best things come into your life. I can't take your pain away, not even with words, but I truly hope they bring you some comfort and help you feel a little more at ease.

Some days are just confusing for us. We can't come to a conclusion about what is actually happening to us. You feel every emotion at once, and at the same time, you can't even name what you are feeling. You don't even feel like doing your favorite activities, and you also don't feel like interacting with your loved ones. Days like these also exist, and they are difficult to go through because nothing makes sense to you during those times. And it's even more difficult to explain it to someone when your own emotions are confusing to you as well.
          
          One of the hardest feelings to explain is when your emotions become confusing. You are not happy, but you are not completely sad either. You want someone to understand you, but at the same time, you don't want to talk to anyone. You feel like crying, but your tears don't come out. You feel like saying so much, but your mind gives you no words.This is what confused emotions can feel like.
          
          Many people think they are becoming cold or heartless because they don't react the way they used to. But the truth is, sometimes your mind becomes so tired that it stops expressing emotions the way it normally does. It is not because you don't care. It is because you have been carrying too much for too long.
          
          Imagine carrying a heavy bag every single day. At first, your shoulders hurt. After some time, you stop noticing the pain because your body gets used to it. The pain is still there, but you no longer react to it in the same way.Don't overwhelm yourself by thinking that you are being ridiculous or that something is wrong with you. It's okay. You are being normal. Things will make sense one day. I know it's painful for you right now, but never lose hope.

Everyone has a different story and different goals to achieve. We all have different ways of fulfilling our dreams and following our passion. Each one of us faces many difficulties and has to endure a lot while trying to cope with everything in our daily lives. Sometimes you may feel that there is no possibility of successfully reaching your goal because of the hurdles you face every day. At times, you become mentally and physically exhausted, which leaves you feeling numb, and you don't have the enthusiasm to continue your work. Let me tell you, that's normal.
          
          Some days are exhausting. They make you feel like you just want to lie on your bed and do nothing. You don't feel productive. Some days, procrastination is at its peak, and there is nothing ridiculous about it. It happens, and you shouldn't blame yourself too much. Make a mental note that days like this exist, and you can make up for them on your productive days. Productive days exist too, so don't forget them. Just because some days make you feel lazy and exhausted doesn't mean you should start feeling worse about yourself.
          
          Another thing is that when people fall on their way, they often consider it a failure. But falling on your way is not a failure. You have only stumbled; you haven't reached your goal yet. You will face obstacles along the way, so remember that. Don't let people who have never set a goal judge you, because they don't know the value of hard work and hardships. Their words may hurt, I know, but don't let their judgment get so deep into your mind that you start losing your motivation to achieve your goal. When you fall, it means you are putting effort into something, and you are serious about it. That should be your mindset. It's painful to fall, but that pain is a sign that you are not giving up on your dreams and that you still have hope within you.

Hello everyone!!! Due to some personal reasons I will be removing my account from wattpad. It will be up today and tomorrow, but sometime by next Monday I will have taken it down.
          The following accounts will be able to provide information on my well being sporadically if anyone wants to check in:

When you decide to stay positive after being negative for a long time, your mind starts making you regret many things. It's so easy to feel negative because your mind is always ready for it, but staying positive needs courage and strength.
          
          You aren't ridiculous for overthinking. It's just that your mind goes into defense mode because it senses danger. A positive mindset requires a lot of strength. Negative thoughts make it difficult for your brain to move towards positivity because it takes effort and time. You don't become positive all at once. It takes time and patience.
          
          The more you keep putting yourself down mentally, the weaker you become physically. Remember that. Your mental health is connected to your physical health. When people disappoint you, treat you harshly, or do anything that frustrates you, you automatically start putting yourself down mentally. Your energy gets drained. Even though you expected the situation because of your overthinking, when you actually face it, everything feels different and much harder.
          
          I'm not saying that you are weak or overly sensitive for reacting this way every time. No, it's natural and normal to feel like this. But protect yourself from getting too emotionally damaged because, in the end, you are the one who suffers.
          
          Hold yourself together, piece by piece, even if there are still people out there blaming you for no reason. I know it's difficult.  Every effort you make is more than the bare minimum if you have been through so much and are still moving forward.
          
          You are a brave person for not losing hope. Maybe you don't realize it, but you are doing more than enough. Try to see yourself in a positive way. You spend a lot of time overthinking negative things, but also remember this—you haven't given up. Just think about everything that has happened, and yet you are still trying your best.
