Unstoppable - #MightyPoets

#MightyPoets

Mind Racing,

Unstoppable,

Uncontrollable.

At the end,I am tired.

But,

I am not willing to give in,

I am #beyondworth ,

I am unique,

I am the only "me" in this world.

I want to move on.

I want to be unstoppable,

To roar to the world,

To show the world

Who I am.

But,

Depression has stopped me

From being me.

But,

I knowDepression,

Not unstoppable,

Not uncontrollable.

Stop, #DE .

You are loved

Think of someone you adore,
Their presence and problems are never a chore.
You want to protect them and see them smile,
Everything about them makes living worthwhile.
What if this person was actually you?
Would you give yourself a hug when you are feeling blue?
Would you care for yourself when you are physically frail ?
and be kind and encouraging when you fail?
Love yourself and you won’t feel so alone,
You will also be braver when you step out into the unknown. #Love #beyondworth #MightyPoets #Poem #Poetry #Selflove #Kindness #worth #Anorexia #Health #Suicide #illness #MentalIllness #help #Inspiration #AnorexiaNervosa #Anxiety #Depression #MentalHealth #ObsessiveCompulsiveDisorder #Recovery

When positive is negative

For someone with low self esteem, positive thinking can often have the opposite effect. A lot of self help books out there and inspirational quotes that get you to repeat positive affirmations like ‘I am powerful,’ I am strong,’ I am worthy,’ ‘I am beautiful,’ ‘I am loved’ blah blah may be helpful for those who already believe these things but the further something is from ones own view the more likely it is the brain will just dismiss it. In some cases it doesn’t just dismiss the statement but even draw further attention to how un all of these things they actually are. So basically those who are most in need of a more positive outlook gain an even more negative outlook by trying to force the unnatural. I am now about to veer away from actual facts to my opinion so be mindful of that with the rest of this post. Obviously dwelling on the negative is probably not going to be helpful either so the best course of action is probably to give less weight to the value of all of these things. It is probably also good to remind yourself that even though you and some other people might not think much of you, this does not mean everyone does. All these views are so subjective. A better way to think might be something along the line of ‘I don’t feel that I am beautiful, powerful, worthy or even loved’ but that is ok. I am also aware that these are my feelings and not necessarily the truth. They are also not permanent states and may change through the course of one’s lifetime. Maybe I don’t have any friends or loved ones right now but this does not mean I never will. Maybe everyone else seems to say I am disgusting too but there might me someone out there who one day will find me beautiful. Maybe I am not very powerful but I am kind. #positive #Depression #Selfesteem #think #Suicide #Life #MentalHealth #MentalIllness #Recovery #psychology #Anxiety #ObsessiveCompulsiveDisorder #worth #beyondworth #EatingDisorder #Confidence #help
