Yes to all of these Beth.

I hope that makes you feel less alone.

Have you ever had a group of friends walk away from you? I have, yes.

Have you ever thought that the only thought the only way out of the pain was to die? Yep.

Have you ever lost every job you began? No. I've been lucky.

Have you ever thought no matter how hard you tried you would be a failure? Yes, but I overcame those thoughts. Now they come less often.

Have you ever had every mistake you made play over and over in your mind? Oh yes.

Have you ever been in a crowd of people and felt everyone was looking at you as though you were different? I have.

Have you ever seen people who were really close laughing, talking and hugging and felt jealous and wanted that feeling more than anything? No, but I can imagine it's a hard feeling to have.


Have you ever been so sad you thought that you couldn't breathe or that you would never breathe again? Yes, I have indeed. It was a very long battle, but I did finally catch my breath.

yes to all of those, too...

so is the idea for us to accept that? or to recognize we have some of that and should enjoy feeling it when we do?? i'm confused as to what to do after recognizing those feelings...
