You Are Not Alone - Tumblr Posts - Page 3
When you're feeling very lonely despite having a contact list that has at least 20 people that you could possibly reach out to, and you don't reach out to them, there is always the free and constant capability to talk to God and your lonesome. Just know that you're not alone even if you feel like you are. God bless
Proverbs 4:23 reminds us: From the heart, the mouth speaks #motivation #...
Please Lord renew my heart renew my mind. For you are the reason that I wake up daily. It is you who was with me in my times of darkness and it was you who lifted me out of those times. Heavenly father I ask you to keep me, and keep those who are fighting in silence. Oh Lord protect those who are grieving the loss of family or the disconnection of family and loved ones. In Jesus name I pray amen.
Just a message that I want to send to all of my family and anyone out there dealing with stress. When we're stressed out we tend to hold our breath or either shallow breathe and sometimes we don't even realize it until we're fully exhausted by the stressful situation. This is just a remonder to take a moment out of the day to breathe deeply at least one moment out of the day. It really does help give us that well needed mental reset in those stressful moments. God bless..and remember you are loved, even if you don't think you are.🙏💯
REBLOG IF ITS OKAY TO TALK TO YOU.
Please.
Hi can I request a macaque, wukong, Nezha sandy x fem reader
Like reader has PTSD because a person close to her used her body to do bad things and other stuff….. but when months past sins that happened she stills has nightmares from what happened to her and when she’s closed to a man that she doesn’t know she starts getting a panic attack but if she forgets to take her pills that help her she starts hearing voices to do bad things to herself or hurt herself
ps: please can you do this because this has happened to me recently and I’m having a hard time right now and I want comfort from my comfort character also can it be Romantic for macaque, wukong, Nezha but for sandy platonic relationship like a father relationship please
I hope you find the comfort you're looking for in this, and I also hope you're able to heal on your own time. PTSD is nasty to have to live with, speaking from experience 😞
Macaque, SWK, Nezha, and Sandy x PTSD!Reader (Headcanons)
HEY. WARNING. HEAVY STUFF AHEAD. IF YOU'RE NOT IN AN OKAY STATE OF MIND I SUGGEST YOU AVOID THIS FOR NOW. THE CONTENT IS COMFORTING BUT THE SUBJECT IS HEAVY. GO WATCH SOME CAT VIDEOS. THANK YOU FOR BEING RESPONSIBLE FOR YOURSELF.
Macaque would swear vengeance when he finds out. Out of the group he would be the first resort to violence to cancel out what happened. If you tell him not to, convince him to stay and help you, he will. He'll drop everything to try and make you feel safe again. He keeps you close to him, making sure that above all else that whatever environment you're in that you are not in danger. If you have a panic attack I think he'd also panic a little bit but then he'd refocus and help to ground you, then help you get away from whatever triggered you. He has a very sharp memory so he reminds you to take your meds if you don't remember. But the downside is he'll feel super shitty if you hurt yourself. So he walks you through some guided meditation and breathing techniques.
Wukong focuses on you the moment he finds out. What are your needs right now? Have you taken your meds? Did you do some sort of self care today? He's super observant, he knew something was off with you, but he didn't want to pry. If you have a panic attack he will very quickly remove you from the situation so you're able to calm down. He gets you some water, your meds(if you forgot them) and tries to get your mind off of things. When it comes to what you do if you're off your meds, he's the king of distractions. He would never shame you for hurting yourself, but he would definitely try to steer you away from it and towards something healthier(i.e. squeezing an ice cube or scribbling on paper).
Nezha is very cautious with you. He is fully prepared to be violent if you want him to be however his top priority is you. He helps you find some kind of routine that ensures that you're getting what you need to function--water, meals, and some physical activity. If you have a panic attack, he's actually really good at helping to ground you. He lets you squeeze his hand or braid his hair. If you end up hurting yourself he first assesses the area--is there something there that triggered you? And once that's done he helps you. He helps you to get comfortable and provides some kind of activity for you to do instead. He still always offers to "get rid of the problem", though.
Sandy knows where you're coming from and he's determined to help. He starts out by getting some tea ready, and while that brews he talks to you. He walks you through your feelings and the basics of what happened. You relax a bit as he helps calm you down. If you allow him to he'll encourage you to spend some time with the therapy cats(especially Mo) and he'll even prepare the couch for you to sleep on if you want to spend the night. He is probably the best out of the group when it comes to reminding you to take care of yourself and take your medicine. If you happen to spiral or fall into a dark place he gently coaxes you into doing something else and relaxing again. He knows how to handle panic attacks like a champ and always tells you he's proud of you and how strong you are, even if you don't see it.
Failure Anxiety
Failure anxiety is like a dark pool that sucks you in with a no ending depth. You will start to panic at first and as it sucks you in even more and more the panic level will rise. All you can see is the darkness and you start to feel scared. Even if you look to your right, left, above and under you can’t find a way out of it. Your whole body gives in to the fear this dark pool has created. Your lungs start to burn with a need to breath again, but you just can’t. You do your very best to get out of this hell, but unfortunately this dark pool has won this battle against you already.........
For all anxious beans out there
A few reminders
- breath deeply and slowly, do not let anxiety to overcome your body, you can do this
- your mistakes do not define you, you doing enough, everything is fixable
- Don't compare yourself to others, we all have our own way
And also
I will greatly appreciate any advice to help with anxiety from yall, and I hope this little post will help you maybe a little
You are all beautiful, wonderful people and I hope you all find the bright side. Best of luck, @the-biggest-lol
I'm sick of internet negativity, so let's combat it: reblog this and saying something nice/pay a compliment to the prev in the tags.
When Remus dies in the Battle of Hogwarts, at least in the story I'm writing (And then gets brought back because f that) the map deactivates. Where it previously said 'Messrs. Mooney, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs are proud to present the Marauders Map' it now shows every name of every person who was associated with the Marauders, because the core four are gone, but the Marauders live on in the memories of those who knew them.
Across the map, so many names are shown that you could spend hours trying to write them all down.
Marlene McKinnon, Dorcas Meadowes, Mary Macdonald, Lily Evans, Kingsley (No I will not put his last name, shame on JKR), Regulus Black, Bartemius Crouch Jr., Evan Rosier, Frank Longbottom, Alice Fortescue, Pandora Sailstream, Narcissa Black, Andromeda Black, Theodore Tonks, Lucius Malfoy, and countless others.
And in the center of the map, 'Messers. Remus Lupin, Peter Pettigrew, Sirius Potter and James Potter are proud to have been at your service. While we may be gone, our mischief and our heroic acts live on in history, and our spirit lives on in you.
In flowing, elegant ink, just below that, slightly larger than the rest of the print, lie the words "YOU ARE NOT ALONE"
I used to not believe in the quote, "Time heals all wounds." It felt like a cop out of some bullshit, but as time goes on I realize there's truth to it.
Time heals all wounds. You'll get past your trauma, a break up, and many more. Just cherish yourself.
for everyone who thinks they will never be able to move on:
i used to think that too. you're not alone. they're not wrong when they say time heals all wounds but there is more to it.
i used to be friends with someone i talked to every single day, we were even on call at night to fall asleep. for 5 years. i was in love with her, at some point we even were together for about 2 years. we were in a long distance relationship & heavily connected through the writing rp's with our oc's. it was something very deep & personal for me, since my oc's are like my own children (i have autism, they're a part of my special interest so they are very heavily engraved into my heart & brain).
the friendship was very toxic, pretty much from the start. i isolated myself to be able to talk to her more but she usually treated me like shit. we saw each other every holiday, in summer even for a month straight. i was convinced i would never be able to live without her. i was unable to have a happy moment without her, i was so unhealthily attached. she didn't allow me to have any friends, or even spend time with my family. so she really was all my focus lay on.
i broke up with her & blocked her a few months ago. i needed a lot of support to even be able to do that. i feel so free now that she is gone. i can finally live. i got to spend time with my family, make new friends, go past the trauma she put me through (that i won't mention here but she did put me through a LOT). and even now that i feel happy without her, there are times where i feel nostalgic and miss the bond we had. or maybe i really do just miss the idea of her. the version of her i created in my head. i think that's what i was doing. taking the good feeling, longing for it to come back, and completely forgetting about the shit she put me through.
my point is, i thought nobody would understand this. i thought i was the only person on this planet who felt so attached to a person. but that's not true. many people go through that. and many people can live past it. so did i. the person i thought i couldn't live without is not in my life anymore, and i feel better than ever. my brain still wants to get back into contact with her, just to feel that feeling of nostalgia one more time. many things remind me of her and i can assure you, the constant reminders of her in things i loved almost tore me apart. but the wound healed. as more time passed, i realised that i live for myself, not for others. and the more i radiate love, the more will love come back to me.
i don't need a person in my life to feel happy. people are an additional support. additional. you live for yourself. there will be people who love you. but you have to start loving yourself. and if i manage to do that, you will manage this too
if there is anyone out there who can relate to this and needs a shoulder to lean on and an ear to listen, feel free to dm me 💜
too laze to get up
How long should I endure the burden, which wasn't mine to bear in the first place, how many more sleepless nights?? restless life??
Searching for every nook and corner but again searching for what?? my likes or dislikes??perhaps my dreams and ambitions?? maybe this forest is growing thicker, colder and darker for every turn I take . In every story there will be a knight in shining armour but I guess in my story he's already gone I guess because why didn't he come when I was facing my worst nightmares, didn't he hear my cries ? my heart-wrecking prayers for help ?? or isn't just a big deal like I am thinking it is??
so many what-ifs,if-else's, but's , yet's... At this point I am just exhausted .... exhausted to a point where I don't have energy to talk to do anything at all. Too much of assumptions without even being closer to the truth, I just wanna lay in bed and rests both my mind and body don't forget soul though , leave me there where I'll be probably living thousands of lives inside a book or through a movie or taking a nap to restore all the energy to fight for the war that I'll be facing tomorrow morning, and keeping repeating the cycle until one day I'll fight my own battles without hoping for one's help,where I'll be enough
Hiii, tried something for the first time , hope you guys liked it and there might be grammatical mistakes , its been so long I've written something like things so bear with me here ,haha then you matter!! you're enough!! you worth more !! its fine to have to a bad day but remember afer every dark tunnel there's a light no more how dark it is... kkk bye
To my fellow survivors, know that you are not alone, these are not just a few deaths, these are a massacre. But we are soldiers, we have survived the toughest and bloodiest battles that people will never see, and we've had countless comrades-in-arms fall to our enemy. Know that you are not alone, that this war has been fought since long before us and will continue to be fought long after us, with countless people rising and falling to continue to fight in a war for our very survival. You are not alone because we sat together in the trenches surrounded by death, unsure if we would see the next sunrise. Know that every breath you take is a victory, that every day you live has been earned and that every new memory you make is a badge of honor, because every day that you are alive is a day our enemy suffers the sting of defeat knowing it failed to take you down. Every day, every moment, every breath is a defiance, a resistance as old as time, because you are still here, after everything you went through, clawing your way out of the deepest depths of hell, you are still here.

This could SAVE SOMEONE'S LIFE.
YOU HAVE NO EXCUSE NOT TO REBLOG THIS.
I DON'T GIVE A FUCK IF IT DOESN'T GO WITH YOUR BLOG'S THEME.
And yes, REBLOG. Liking does no shit at all. This isn't ig.
You reblog, people see it. You don't, people don't see it. This shit's that simple.
This could save someone's life. It's not a joke.
a gentle reminder:
eat something. take your medicine. you are not a burden to others. your emotions are just as real as theirs and deserve to be listened to. relax your jaw and shoulders. it’s okay to take a break sometimes you deserve rest. it’s okay to be yourself. you’re not hard to love and anyone who opposes that does not deserve your time. you’re going to be okay.
You were never created to feel depressed, unwanted, alone or ashamed. You were created to love and to be loved, and to feel that you are worthy and are valuable.
If you're obsessing over your anxiety symptoms, try this website:
It helped me to get out of bed and get on with my day today. It will be okay, guys, you're not alone! Please learn everything you can about anxiety and how you can make certain adjustments in your life in order to help your nervous system heal. Seek therapy and please, don't suffer in silence. Even if you don't have any close relatives or friends to rely on, we are in this together, I'm sure anybody in the anxiety community will listen to you. My DM's are also open if anybody needs to vent. Just make sure that if you're really struggling and living life feels like a burden, don't be afraid to also seek professional help (there are 8 more days till my psychiatry appointment too!). It is NOT a weakness, respectfully f*ck everybody who says so. As humans, I believe it is our duty to take care of each other. <3

I just remembered the time when I was depressed (not diagnosed with it, but I'm sure I was depressed) and could not feel a damn thing. I was empty. I remember saying "It would be better feeling ANYTHING at all, rather than this constant numbness". Now I'm here a few years later and the feeling I feel every day is fear, especially in the morning as soon as I open my eyes. And I'm not sure it's better than emptiness. I could say "be careful what you wish for", but instead all I'm going to say is: be brave. Be bold. You have to take back your life. It's not going to happen in one night. You will cry a lot. It's going to be hard. It's a constant fight where you have to show up for yourself every day. But you absolutely have to keep going and challenge yourself.
This statement involves every type of fight with any kind of mental illness, not just anxiety. You are valid. Your feelings are valid.
We got this!

Nothing can explain me better. This link is absolutely precise .
I'm a burden to my family. Useless to society and of absolutely no contribution. My future seems completely and certainly bleak ( rather non existent) I can't do anything and I even settled multiple times in my mind on the prospects of being a small time worker - working part time at three jobs that didn't require qualifications making a home from a studio apartment and possibly even continuing to leach off my parents
Tried two times to off myself and failed because of the inevitable fear of failing at just another thing that I'm relying on or the pain. I'm a coward really. Imagined detaching myself from my family and friends and moving away to struggle myself with no traces left behind. I don't know how it came to this. I'm a genuinely rational person.
I’m not really one for attention and can recognise any attention seeking I may project once in a while or victimising . I’m mature and atleast can say with certainty that I used to be a great student .
I used to be smart, intelligent, witty , responsible and so independent- things you would expect of every elder sibling. Did everything my parents expected of me if not better. I think it's safe to say I was so so competent. I feel as if I am referring to a third person. I don't mean to brag and I can't even associate myself with her.
Another post expressing my feelings excluding the physical actions . ^^^
The last 22 months took a huge turn. I'm getting tired of even trying to explain my situation repeatedly to myself since I have no one to talk to. This is my first time expressing it publicly and seemingly anonymously. The link can't explain my situation any better . It's incredibly accurate. Tired of reiterate myself .
My parents - I don't blame them one bit - decided that given my scores and well versed capabilities, that I would persue a career in stem - engineering and preferably CS. In my country - engineers are valued like Gods. They are know for always ending up successful, moving to a foreign land to live a life of leisure and monetary abundance. But in my country- the competition and the years required to become one continue to steadily increase. As a student previously, it was my ginormous sense of anxiety, stress and fear that made me excellent- truly. I'm the type to believe I don't know anything and revise multiple times enough to be able to picturise the pages and information word for word . I was anxious enough before exams to make the people around me anxious. I get easy unnerved and stressed out by the possibility of imperfections and mistakes . I needed to feel like I knew everything to feel like I was enough . Hell … my friend wrote an entire essay about anxiety , stress and mental health in students , thinking about me ! (Her words ) I can't begin the explain the feeling of inadequacy . I can't begin the explain the feelings | felt and that I completely credit for making me the best I could be. A sense of not being good enough per say. The extent of this sense being experienced beyond normal amounts . That sense has now motivated me to do the opposite- not try at all .
My parents tend to be a little selfish - not because they chose my careers - but just as people. They don't really look beyond themselves ( or my younger brother at that). I remember when my mother called me jealous of her at age 9 ? Like woah. You have to be a different level of self absorbed to call your child jealous of you . Same for dad. Still I sympathise with them because they came from severely underprivileged backgrounds- no proper food or home and gave us the resources we need - never once depriving us of any of our wishes and needs. I valued this and am grateful- hence worked hard .[[ I learnt to check the price tag at a young age and never asked for anything . I was met with an epiphany recently of how the only things I’ve ever truly wanted and asked for ( skating , art classes , teachers , friends ) have always been scratched away from me … for reasons I couldn’t control . I can’t help but think of how life deliberately worked it’s way out to fuck me up .]]] Thus, they never really paid me much attention- I handled my academics and responsibilities on my own . They never had to follow up or ask me about school or my day . They trusted me . They don't deserve having a child that not only gave them false hopes of a bright future - but now the complete impossibility of it. It doesn't help that my brother never studies and is a spoilt pampered brat to the point that he's completely intolerable. Leaving my entire family's hopes and dreams to be on my shoulders - not that I mind it's natural given my performance - but it would be easier to slack off with some backup. All eyes on me they say, but somehow my brother still manages to bag the title for most coddled and selfish and loved person by my family.
I love my parents so much . They don’t deserve a failure like me . They deserve a child that is able to fulfill their dreams and aspirations and keep them happy . I always want them to be happy . I want them to genuinely be happy . I love them so much . They deserve everything the world has to offer - but me . I’m a burden . I feel terrible for I’m wasting so many of their resources… all their hard work , blood , sweat and tears … just wasted because of this bullshit of an excuse . I’ve reached a level where I’ve become numb to the pain and every time the waves come back I think this is an excuse … yes coming from someone who has experienced how gruelling it is first hand … it gets so tiring … you start to forget what has happened to you and just let it take over with a sigh. I feel terrible facing my parents everyday and lying to their faces … but that’s the only way I get to see them smile
The last 2 years with the exposure to incredible competition, the demotivation of doing something I'm not sure I want to do, the feeling of just being dumb and nowhere compared to my peers caused a huge downfall. No friends - none All previous ones having found peace in abandoning me now that I was of no use to them. Negativity and the guilt of not even batting an eye at my own ignorance to my future piling up with time. Last year I faced severe depression- alone Cried everyday for 5-6 months at least 4 times per day. Hyperventilating and numbing migraines following the episodes . (No one knew cause growing up I learnt to be a silent crier) suicidal thoughts constantly on my mind. I can't remember a time when I wasn't thinking about how worthless I am and how undeserving I am of the time space and resources I occupy. Tried offing myself twice but didn't go through with it completely, both times fearing the after effects that my parents would have to deal with, the shame from society and the possibility of failing and being left with permanent mental scaring and disability. I can't remember much of those months (a coping mechanism of the brain ) but all I can remember is that my brain and body begs me not to put myself thorough it again . ( with brushing my teeth being the only grounding experience )
I don't know how I got out of it . Ignorance helped . I went back to the cycle that preceded those 5-6 months, filled with the feeling of idk and idc, in capability and loss that ultimately had led to the gruelling time in the first place
Now I'm here . But improving ? I guess?
Led myself to the given link and honestly couldn’t be thankful enough to the person that posted it with such accuracy. Explains from top to bottom . I can’t compete . I can’t live in this world anymore . I’m not strong enough. I’m selfish and weak .
I can’t help but compare myself to all the rich folks who don’t have to work a day in their lives to deserve half of what we do . I’m lazy . I’m resentful and I’m lonely . I’m so so lonely . I’ve accepted it , but sometimes I can’t help but wonder what it’s like , and other times i worry I’ll never let that happen to myself… im my own hindrance to a normal life . Im the only person I can’t run away from and scares me . Im terrible to myself , im a terrible person , im so negative no wonder I ended up like this and no one cares to be around me , I wouldn’t wanna be around me either . I know I’ve emphasised on school in this article .. but there are numerous factors that addup .
I tried to talk to my parents once - failed attempt and so now I'm trying to study for an exam that severely affects my life . I don't know what led me to suddenly feel the need to take action but l'm happy it happened. But of course - things that aren't addressed fall back - I'm starting to feel everything again. My exams have commenced. The first - English - I got back my feelings of anxiety and stress, bombarded my brain with info for three days and did well in the exam. I felt to happy to feel something ! To be so occupied with that pressure that I once felt , that I didn't have time to think about how useless I truly am ! But now I feel like I can't read a single page . I feel like I’ve exhausted all the capability I had in those three days . I have more exams coming up - important ones at that. I'm completely hopeless. I know I may have only recovered once but there is truly no future for me. I'm not smart anymore. Not productive. I'm useless. I still don't know what I want to do with my life.I can’t study . I don't even think about it because everyday I pray that I don't wake up . I can't explain the summarisation of my place rn. Isolation probably had a part to play in this . The pandemic ruined my life . I just don't want to be here. Im a burden . An annoyance. I can't be here . I’m shit . Better of non-existent . I can't study anymore let alone do anything. I don't know how to explain how inconspicuous | am! Omg | hate myself so much - I'm not looking for comfort. Im worth the hate, I deserve nothing . I completely declined. Completely and severely. This ends here abruptly but I truly am no good. There is nothing else to say. I have an eating disorder . Suffered from repeated night mares and insomnia . Now it feels like even offing myself is not an option because I'm bad at that too. Even though I innately deserve the non existence and am not deserving of the life that I have , I can't bring myself to end it all (successfully).I pray that I don't wake up tomorrow :) I pray everyday.
(I still feel like I haven’t explained well enough or recounted all my experiences - forgotten - to encapsulate my state. I’m sorry . I’m so sorry . I don’t want to be here either . I’m sorry )
I’m most regretful for the time I wasted , The life and the body that I wasted with my worthless soul, the memories and time I stole from people , the place I held in their lives (irrespective of how insignificant , positive or negative it may have been ) .I’m regretful for the resources and the space I’ve wasted. The space I’ve occupied on this wonderful planet has been a waste. I’ve been nothing but a burden. I’m most regretful to my parents , my parents that I hate but love so much , the parents I’m so grateful for , the parents I disappoint, the parents I don’t deserve . Punish me .
It’s easy to just blame myself for my situation . If only I had continued to impassively do what was expected of me , do what so many children do on a daily basis to make their families proud - ignoring their dreams to persue those of their families. To be able to work hard and relentlessly towards something they don’t care for . If only I could do that . If only I could do the normal . I harbour so much respect for the people that manage to make through a day productively and tirelessly work forward to reach a goal they can’t see. Everyone is going through or has been through an immense struggle . I hold so much admiration for everyone around me . I just seem to not be strong enough . Such is life . I can’t explain the guilt and shame I feel . I don’t deserve to be here . I don’t deserve what I have . I’m so sorry . I’m so sorry . I’m sorry . I’m sorry . I’m sorry … I’m hopeless .
I pray that I don’t wake up tomorrow , I pray everyday .
