It's All About Finding The Calm In The Chaos. Refuse To Sink!

So how do you speak your mind? Do you write? Or paint a picture of the picture in your head? Find songs that best depicts your mental state? Do you doodle? Dance? What is it? What let’s you speak your mind?

Do you go lurking in the city searching for empty space? Do you just cry your lungs out, shout and let it all out? Or do you sit up all night writing and erasing words and rewriting words all over again, and frame those random thoughts in your head?

So, how do you voice your thought?

Depression is not that easy to fight with. There are things you can’t really utter it to your friends, family and relatives. Question is Why not? Not because you don’t want to share with them, but you really do care about sharing your personal stuff with them, you do care about your privacy, you don’t want anyone to judge you or feel that you are too weak to handle life, you don’t want to be called by terms like “What a loser!”, “What a jerk! ”, “How stupid and irresponsible!”, “What a maniac!”. 

Basically, we care a lot about people and hence fail to keep our life transparent enough. Keep wearing the fake masks all over, smile, pretend, smile again and show that we are so happy. We as a human brain, if something goes wrong in our life, we tend to continuously think about it, make a pillar out of your unwelcoming thoughts, let them affect us mentally and pollute our mind. It then leads to enormous sufferings that we have to go through in series, affecting the health at very first place. You do get swollen eyes, lose all the shine and charm you’ve been holding until now. You become less friendly, speak less and that kinda suffocates you, doesn’t let you breathe. So, basically you become a connoisseur of self destruction.

Reach out for 5 things the sooner you can, if you feel stressed out a lot and feel difficulties are taking control over your life.

1.        Take the plunge to discuss things that are bothering you with your family at the very first go, as they are the ones who’ll never disappoint you. Mark my words, put it on a note and stick it at some place which is never missed. Be it your siblings, mother or father. They’ll hear you, be there for you and will help you coming out of the difficulties, be it anything. Trust me!
2.        Approach your close friends, whom you can count on, whom you consider your family. They might not entirely help you, for leading the busy life which we all are. Like occupied with so-called corporate 9 working hours thingy. But they’ll guide you, show you ways, directions, be your constant support. So yes, go ahead discuss and share your problems with them. Don’t accumulate them in your head.
3.        Go out, make new friends! Explore the more you can. There are  many counselors and life saviors out there who’ve seen a lot in life already, and taken a pledge to help and motivate those who need them, so yes reach out for such people. They’ll be your life mentors throughout and yes they’ll happily help you, won’t judge you or defy you or your existence. They’ll just help you leading a normal life. You can call them God gifted miracles, for they’ll thoroughly protect you, give you remedies without any expectations in return, give you a hope in life. Go out and seek them. Please, don’t trouble yourself!
4.      Release it! Make art your best friend. Whatever you’re good at, keep doing it for your inner peace. Scribble down if you like writing, write the poems release your pain out, put them on paper, decorate it and read it out to people and yes wear that beautiful smile while reading. Life is difficult for all of us, don’t forget. But giving up is just not done. In the form of art, depict your stories, make people fall in love with your art and look for you as an inspiration. Yes Go out and inspire others. Keep doing it every day.
5.        Lastly, Hold on! Have Faith !! Have Faith that things will be alright. Sooner or later, things does fall on its place. What’s gonna happen will happen no matter what. So Hold on! Be brave to fight, life is a challenge just like that difficult subject on your way to exam. Of course you fear of flunking it, but remember you’ve to clear it for making further moves and rising up. Yes climb that bloody ladder. It must be a dark, rainy day for you today. But, tomorrow there’ll be sun shining above you. What do you do then? Look up, smile and be grateful. 😊

To the boy who posted a picture of his scars half a year ago, I am proud that you’re not cutting yourself anymore. And that takes a lot of courage and willpower. Well done!

And, to everyone who writes, muse, or make poems about sadness I am happy that you are alive in this universe because you have a story to tell that may change people’s lives forever.

My heart goes out to the people who are sad,

I wish them peace.

I wish them hope.

I wish them love.

I wish them healing.
