You may have people in your life who are always there when you feel low and try to bring positivity into your life, and it's a good thing that someone is trying. But there is another thing: you may still feel anxious, empty, and overwhelmed because you want those people to actually notice you for once and realize how real the pain you are feeling is.
I'm talking about those people for whom you put in effort, but they don't acknowledge it because they are too caught up in inspecting your mistakes and constantly reminding you about them, even though you are putting in effort for them and trying your best.
Even if the whole world is with you, if that one person keeps neglecting you or your emotions, it can still keep hurting you, and that's understandable. You will feel different emotions according to the moments you go through, but the most important thing is that you shouldn't stay stuck in that phase for too long, as eventually, it can make things even more difficult.
People treat others according to the thoughts they carry and the mindset they have. Their behavior and words can show who they are and how they deal with different situations and people in their lives.
You get hurt by people you are close to because you feel deeply for them and try your best to stay positive for their sake, but they may overlook everything positive inside and outside of you.
If the environment you are surrounded by is toxic, then you are surviving it every day while still not giving up on yourself and the things that matter to you.
Being positive doesn't mean you won't feel bad or overwhelmed. It means that even during those awful moments, you try to stay patient when every thought inside your mind is screaming negativity.
Staying silent while your head is spinning because of negative thoughts can sometimes be your way of trying to stay calm. Learn to appreciate the little things about yourself because people can sometimes be too blind to notice your biggest efforts.
