Connections here on The Mighty

My thoughts make a lot of stories against the ones here to whom I connected and sent messages.
Here, my misleading mind stupidly forces to make me romanticize the struggling females here.
Thankfully, I don't.
No attacks please.
Read my phrase carefully before attacking me—"misleading mind". There's obviously a reason why I used this phrase.
My mind now tells me that the sexually traumatized woman, with whom I politely connected, is thinking negatively about me just because I'm a male and that I'm a red flag in her eyes because of my gender.
In short, my mind keeps telling me unreasonable lies in a harmfully convincing manner. As a person who feels alone but still keeps hoping to see his sweet imaginations become the reality, I always keep hoping that I get a reply from someone on my The Mighty inbox.
To that, my mind tells me this convincing lie—"Waiting for a reply from a woman, huh? You're clearly a jerk, a red flag. That woman still didn't reply because she knows you're out there to ruin her life. Don't you have any care for the other humans who are born in this world? You're shameful for having romantic thoughts. You're worthless. You're better off being alone."

Clinging to small, powerful habits 🌱❤️‍🩹

One of my daily habits is listening to soft music.... And yeah, spending some time here in this app. Soft music rituals save me... I still wish to vividly feel their effect on my body and on my brain. Maybe, headphones are invented for this reason. I'll get to know some info about 🎧.
What about you? Do you have any habits you love?

I am not finding the type of mental help that I want that can help change my life

There was one time I was hospitalized in a residential treatment center in Florida and one of the female mental health techs that I kept talking to and opening up to told me to make a wish and it will come true. I feel like the wish is coming true but it wasn’t even like a big wish. I wish I made a better wish. I wish that I can have 100 more wishes come true because honestly right now my life sucks and I am barely living. I hope I can get my 100 wishes one day soon. It would mean the world to me if I do.

Recently, I have been going through a lot... After a very long time, my suicidal thoughts are bothering me.. Suddenly, life left very much melancholy and I felt I don’t wanna live anymore... It’s concerning for me... Actually, I am going through a lot.. It’s getting overwhelming for me.. Life has been very much stressful these days... I don’t know.. I had to come back to my home for that cause I felt I wasn’t safe alone.. So, I did.. I shared with my mother.. She is the only one I trust to share.. We had a long comforting talk.. It feels good... It’s not easy but I am trying my best... #Depression #MentalHealth #Anxiety #SuicidalThoughts #CheckInWithMe

What is something you do for comfort when you have a tiring, stressful, or overwhelming day?

Let’s talk positive coping strategies and self-soothing techniques today!

When we’ve had a tiring, stressful, or overwhelming day, knowing how to best practice self-care and comfort ourselves can make all the difference —especially when figuring out the ways that effectively help us unwind and recharge.

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks likes to lay in silence in her dim-lit room, with all of her pillows surrounding her for comfort. It helps her to reground and re-energize.

How do you comfort yourself at the end of an exhausting day?

How can you prioritize your mental health today?

Happy Friday! 🌟

As the week winds down, let’s take a moment to pause and take three deep breaths. With each breath, think about what you need from yourself today. How can you prioritize your mental health right now, throughout the day, and into the weekend?

Today, I need to spend some time by myself reconnecting, reflecting, and restoring my energy after a really long and rough couple of months. I also need to write some affirmations to remind myself that I’m worthy of connection, that I have good ideas, and that I’m doing a great job navigating adulthood and life overall.

Feel free to share yours below! ✨
