So grateful I got healthy; I may not have survived otherwise.
That was perseverance on your part and recognizing what is truly important in this life!👍.
Self care is vital to happiness so make sure you prioritize it.

I actually feel defeated more than anything else. I personally cannot sustain 8 years worth of bitter anger. Actually, I am exhausted.
Right now, I need to radically live one day at a time and not project what will happen, because that’s going to rob me of everything. I’ll take it as it comes and deal with tomorrow later.
When I finally process the grief and anguish, I’ll be better able to figure out what I can personally do to resist.

I am not sure which is worse. The despair or the anger. Both are exhausting and defeatist. My head knows what to do; but my emotions won't be denied. So I try to work through it.
Take good care. 💙

I'm going to start channeling my anger to fight against evils of religion.
@Sr0bi @evamarie @Soldier_Solitude
I am on board with that, but I have to pull it together first.
@CinnamonGirlE @Sr0bi @evamarie
You will in do time. Just get some rest and think positive thoughts in the meantime.

I think once I process the despair, I’ll be able to figure out how to effectively fight, in whatever way I can. Right now, though, I need to lean into self care and allow myself to go through the grief.
And I do know that doom scrolling about the horrors awaiting us is not going to help me, at all. That sort of projection is completely self defeating.
Despair is worse. You can channel anger into a productive form of positivity but despair is a pit of hopelessness encapsulated in darkness!
This is the time to decompress, evaluate, and rest to gather strength in order to prepare oneself for the days ahead.
Try not to allow these recent events to overwhelm you and having you sinking into the pit of despair.🙏🏼
