Are you okay??
ARE YOU OKAY DAY..
Let’s have those difficult conversations..
to all my beautiful family and friends it’s okay, you have been strong enough for soo long it’s now time to lean on someone let someone else share the weight of your world.. it’s okay to cry and meltdown it’s not a sign of weakness.. not just today but everyday check in on YOUR STRONGEST FRIEND.. even the strongest of ppl needs ears to listen and shoulders to cry on..
TO ALL MY GRIEVING PARENTS OUT THERE.. please take extra care of yourselves I know you may be in a dark time but every lil step is still a step.. just take one minute at a time and accept any help.. GRIEF HAS NO TIME LIMITS.. today could be hard for anyone for any given reason not just today but everyday.. please be kind because YOU NEVER KNOW when someone needed that smile or just to feel like they’ve been seen or heard..
THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING HERE NO MATTER YOUR STRUGGLES YOURE STILL HERE AND FOR THAT YOU SHOULD BE PROUD OF YOURSELF FOR HOW FAR YOUVE COME..
Warmest of hugs to anyone needing one..
@ghettosmurf I am okay and nice to read your thread.
How are you?
Today I’m feeling unstoppable and very good about myself..
@ghettosmurf I used to love that feeling, but when I learned that it is also a sign of mania, then I am a little hesitant to get too excited about that.
Also it keeps changing.
yeha that’s probably why I go days feeling this and then dip.. I was diagnosed with complex ptsd but I haven’t been back to a psych in a few years I only do counselling nowadays
@ghettosmurf my friend has bipolar and goes through mood swings. since they started on medications , they are more stable.
Your words are a touching reminder of the importance of emotional support and understanding. It's vital to remember that everyone, no matter how strong they appear, might be fighting battles we're unaware of. Thank you for emphasizing the significance of compassion and reaching out. Your encouragement and warmth are deeply appreciated by many, I'm sure. Let's all continue to support each other, not just on "Are You Okay Day," but every day. 🌟🤗
@ghettosmurf
Thank you for this beautiful and compassionate post! 💙 I am okay, there might be times I feel sadness but I never loose sight of the light - so I am okay!
That can be hard trying to always see the light.. I struggle a lot and am still learning to manage emotions and learning to be a new me since I lost my 20yr old son in 2021..
but majority of the time I remind myself of how far I’ve come considering I’ve crumbled over smaller issues before I discovered this new “me”
@ghettosmurf my son would of turned 12 at the end of August
@ghettosmurf
I believe there is nothing harder for a parent than to loose their child. I'm very sorry for the loss of your son 💙. There is no time limit to grieving, there will always be good and bad days. I hope that you will reach out on those hard days if you feel it helps to talk.
@ghettosmurf yeah I have cptsd too😥 I try to be positive and ignore all my emotions and feelings, cause I don't really understand them.But I dip very low. It's really hard some days
I’m sorry you’re feeling this way.. one day you shall find some peace just have faith… I’ve ignored all my emotions for my yrs cos I’m damaged but I’m still here after all I’ve been through.. I’m trying to change my thoughts to “it’s happening for me” rather than “it’s happening to me” cos I’m trying to learn the “new me”..
