Re: negative/positive attitude shpek: ho mariher,
sounds like your mom did a good job. it's good to get reminders how others have dealt with and have gotten through tough times. so this is a tough time for us and somehow need to get through it.
Re: negative/positive attitude mariher: Hi Guys,
Today I'm having the same blah day as yesterday. No improvement. My mom had it pretty rough too raising 4 kids on her own. My dad left when I was an infant and I'm the youngest of the 4. So now when I talk to my mom and she tells me that things will get better and that I have to be a good mom to J, I take her words as though they're worth millions because I know she's been there and she's suffered and she made it through the hard times. I guess knowing that.... I should feel better :)
Re: negative/positive attitude shpek: hey brielle123,
thanks for the kind words... i know a good, positve attitude helps with everything. normally that's how i am but you said it best.. how do you get there, back to that place, when you feel miserable and depressed? don't stop trying and time may be the best way to look at it. it's tough when your heart got ripped out and your partner did you wrong.
i'm doing everything i know how to get back to a good place again. it's so hard. seems like every moment of everyday you feel the loss. i hope things get better sooner than later. i dont like feeling so down and unhappy. people say its a choice, which in a way i guess it is, but like you said, "Your mind knows what you need to do to achieve happiness again, it just takes time for your heart to follow along with it."
negative/positive attitude shpek: Ojars,
Would like some input on this.
I know that when you are in a positive mood - you usually attract postive energy etc.
And when in a negative frame of mind, the same goes...
Well, it's been 2 months for me since my X bailed... I've been told i'm getting a little better even though it doesnt feel like it all that much, but i'm trying. It's not as much about "her" but but being dissed like i was and feeling lonley and empty.
So, i'm not at my happy place, back to me yet. I'm trying... reading books, talking here, therapy etc... Well, I know I still have negative thoughts, sometimes feel hopeless, feeling lost etc. all that. Is it the fact that I am still recovering and need more time. That I WILL get better and back to my normal happy self? I feel like I want to be there already but honestly I'm not.
So in my mind i know it's better to think positve, be happy now - all that. I'm just not there yet but am trying very hard. I'm just looking for some insight and maybe some of you know where Im coming from and can offer me some advice.
Thanks so much!
Re: negative/positive attitude fkunone: Shpek. I believe in it. It may seem coincidental, but as you truly make an effort to surrender your negative thoughts and energies to a greater flow that's in you, you'll find that things start to work out for you easier. Sure, it takes effort on your part, but then again, it wouldn't be living if it didn't.
Fear not as to what you see, place faith in what you believe.
