Catching bugs as usual; collecting the little buggars is hard work, but fun in itself! I'm meeting more and more people by the day, but some people i come across are having trouble in their lives...
I want to help them, but i know i can't; i don't know them in rl, and i don't think a pixel hug is gonna cut it. I feel so helpless and bad..i pity them, and i know i shouldn't. Pity is the last thing they need, but they need the best of help. In order to get that help, they need to see for themselves that they have a problem and something is wrong. The next step is to talk to someone about it, not to bottle up emotions, and that can be dangerous. I know this from experience, unfortunately. And many of you will go through a situation, one that can cause both physical and mental pain/frustration.
My advice is to not blame anything on yourself or anyone else, talk to someone about the situation. Someone you trust/love to the greatest degree. For me, it was my mom. I didn't tell her for 3 months after the incident occured(spelling lol?) and at first the path was rocky with a few obstacles in the way, but it got easier as the months flew by. I'm still seeing a counselor, for both the incident, my parent's divorce, and my life as a whole.
I'd say i've gone through at least 5 different counselors, but the one i have now is a godsend. She doesn't just let me talk and nod and prescribe me meds; she listens to what i have to say, and talks me through the stress and trouble that is my life. I don't know where i would be without her..probably in a nuthouse or something like that. The point is, i've learned not to bottle up my emotions, and whatever life throws at you, you just have to work your way to throw it back or crush it completely and take control of whatever it is that blocks your path to enlightenment.
