Thank You

I realized I have small communities that help me. Today and for a few days I've been in a very dark place and thought about ending my life to stop all the negative things from repeating yelling at me on loop. But I reached out and I was reeled back onto my path. I am fine for the most part. I'm stable enough to know that I'm cared for and loved. I just need to hold onto these things. I do fear the darkness within me and though I feel like I'm flying this plane solo because I dont have a therapist nor do I take meds I do know I am strong enough to get through it one day at a time. My home environment doesn't help me it makes it worse but I still keep fighting. #strengthforever #Depression #SuicidalThoughts #holdingstrong

How do you handle situations where people call you 'selfish'?

When you react to something simple that you know will cause you more pain or suffering and someone calls you selfish, ornery, or overreacting, how do you respond to diffuse the tension, and yet still properly inform that person about how your bad health makes you look at things differently?

Examples?
