(¯·._☆ Take a Step Into Me ☆¯·._): ☆ My Weak Moments ☆

(¯·._☆ Taking a Step Into Me....PLEASE...Read this first... ☆¯·._)

Thank you for taking a moment to take a step into me & into my life. However, please note that all that is written here is merely my own personal experiences, perceptions, views, opinions, feelings & emotions. This blog is a means of expression for me, as I find writing to be quite cathartic. I hope by using this forum this will promote open lines of communication. I only hope that by doing so this will help precipitate healing and growth. If you don’t agree or don’t share in my perception that is indeed okay. We are all individuals; we are each entitled to our own personal perceptions, views, opinions, feelings & emotions. Please understand that these are mine so you must read at your own risk. If by chance we do not share in the same views I am always willing to talk about it. I am always open to broadening my horizons n’ seeing the world through someone else’s eyes. However, this is me in my rawest of forms, sharing all that colors my world. So come see the world through mine….

I don't know why, but I feel so lost in the
world right..... now when I should feel on top of the world and I am surrounded by loved ones I still feel all alone.

“I
start to feel like I can’t maintain the facade any longer, that I may
just start to show through. And I wish I knew what was wrong. Maybe
something about how stupid my whole life is. I don’t know. Why does the
rest of the world put up with the hypocrisy, the need to put a happy
face on sorrow, the need to keep on keeping on?... I don’t know the
answer, I know only that I can’t. I don't want any more vicissitudes, I
don't want any more of this try, try again stuff. I just want out. I’ve
had it. I am so tired. I am twenty nine in a few days and I am already exhausted.”

“Depression is nourished by a lifetime of ungrieved and unforgiven hurts”

“Why do you stay in prison
when the door is so wide open?

Move outside the tangle of fear-thinking.
Live in silence.”

“I
never asked you to earn me. I want only that you should need me. Your
path is not one of merit. Bring the recurring desires of your mind to
me, every time they emerge. They cannot shock me, for I willed them!
Bring me your confusion, your fear, your craving, your anxiety, your
inability to love the world, your hesitation to serve, your jealousy,
all the deficiencies that defy your spiritual disciplines.”

"You largely constructed your depression. It wasn't given to you. Therefore, you can -deconstruct it." Albert Ellis

"Depression is a prison where you are both the suffering prisoner and the cruel jailer."-DOROTHY ROWE

"Great men suffer
hours of depression through introspection and self-doubt. That is why
they are great. That is why you will find modesty and humility the
characteristics of such men."-Bruce Barton

"When we are angry
or depressed in our creativity, we have misplaced our power. We have
allowed someone else to determine our worth,?and then we are angry at
being undervalued."-Julia Margaret Cameron

"That's the thing
about depression: A human being can survive almost anything, as long as
she sees the end in sight. But depression is so insidious, and it
compounds daily, that it's impossible to ever see the end. The fog is
like a cage without a key." - Elizabeth Wurtzel
