Standing Up Again After The Moment Of Despair

By Sharon Richardson


Living means you also have to face those sufferings and challenges in life. However, some trials can seriously damage the person emotionally. For example, you lost a person that is very close to your heart. That incident would emotionally scar you and lead you to desolation. When severe loneliness attacks you, battling that is definitely hard. However, hope can still be found after waking up from a morning of despair.

Tragedies could really affect the life of person. It is somehow like a huge storm suddenly changing everything around your and leaving you broken into pieces. As a result, fixing those broken pieces is difficult and it would take long for it to be fully recovered. Experiencing some tragic incidents has emotional impacts to people.

Even the society itself can turn into a toxic for you. Nowadays, people are attacking each other through social media. One fault then everybody starts to hate you for what you did and verbally assaults you with their online posts. As a result, you could not face the outside world you anymore.

Not only losing someone can put you to despair. Even a society can kill you. One accidental mistake then everyone started to bully and discriminate you. That is what happening in reality now especially in social media. When the whole world started to hate you for just one mistake, probably you will totally shut down from your surroundings because of it.

Sometimes comforting words from people may not help you to become even better. Probably you are not even listening to what they were saying at you. Most likely because you feel that they do not understand anything at all for they have not experienced what you were experiencing at the moment. You tend to avoid others and you cannot be blamed for it. However, you still need to help yourself. You cannot just stay inside your room forever and let yourself being devoured by the despair haunting you. Doing nothing will just make your situation even worse.

For some, the best way to make yourself better is distractions. Unfortunately, that method is not somewhat effective. You are just likely escaping yourself from what you truly feel. If you tend to distract yourself, it would just prolong the pain inside you. Might as well face it and accept that you are in pain.

If your partner broke up with you and your heart ache so much, then feel the pain or perhaps let it out through crying. Accept the fact that you are hurt and do not hold back. Face it and switch your mindset saying you will be okay after this, not on giving up. Feeling it can really help but feeling it more by inflicting yourself with physical pain or doing drugs is not the proper and best thing to do.

Afterwards, you also have to stop and move forward. But that would really take time to happen. Just remember not to rush yourself on healing that wound. Like they said, time heals wounds. When you feel like you are not hurting anymore, that would be the moment for you to make decisions.

Life gives you disheartening events. Nonetheless, you still have to face and fight it. Always remember you also cannot win it by yourself alone. You still need others and your willingness.
