Do not deny everything you have been through and do not be ashamed of the pain you have gone through, remember the suffering you have experienced and you will understand and apply our suggestions better, when you hit rock bottom, remember this:
Let your emotions flow, give yourself the opportunity to feel this frustration, disappointment or even anger. Identifying feelings is the only way to release pain. If you try to get distracted thinking about other things, emotions will continue to develop, struggling to find a place in your mind.
Feel your pain without clinging to it. Just let it sink, don’t look for solutions, don’t look for guilty, don’t think about making decisions, feel, contrary to what it may seem, these emotions won’t devour you, but they will pass and free you. .
Thinking changes everything. You need time to reflect and understand the meaning of everything that has happened and how it has affected your life. Once you’ve released your emotions, it’s time to start alleviating your mind and heart. It’s time to learn a new lesson.
Thinking does not mean “finding the guilty,” but realizing our responsibilities, forgiving ourselves, and making positive decisions that make us stronger. It can take a while, as long as it takes. Only deep thinking that results in learning is what will help you “get out of the hole. “
If your self-esteem has stayed strong during the fall, it’ll be much easier to get up. Consider your fall an opportunity to show your love for yourself. At least give yourself the same affection you give yourself, respect yourself, forgive yourself, give yourself a chance and don’t try to change who you really are.
Many people, when they feel that they have hit rock bottom, are not allowed to disconnect from their problems, they sit down to reflect and reflect on everything that has happened in their lives, but the fact that you encounter an obstacle does not mean you cannot stray and find something even more beautiful on the new path.
