Posted a new video on YouTube
So I posted a video on YouTube and I want to make sure that I am extremely clear. This isn’t about hate this isn’t about anything other than mental health issues. I hope everyone seeks help. I am just highlighting the fact that changing the definition or changing the meaning doesn’t change the outcome. It doesn’t help to continue perpetrating your own narrative to fit in your box. People need to know to get help for any mental disorder. By changing reality you are not helping the situation, you are making it worse. Please I ask on behalf of the mental health community that we all stop allowing for this narrative to continue. It will only harm the community it keeps “saying” it is trying to save.
To everyone
I am extremely blessed. I am thankful for the struggles that shape me each and every single day. More than anything I thank God for giving me the strength to keep going for without Him I would be nothing. Don’t give up keep fighting. Everyone is facing something so always smile and remember you aren’t alone. Kindness goes very far to someone who is having a really bad day. Make a difference, be the change you want to see. Have a beautiful night/day. ~Emma~
Thoughts at 2am
We are reminded once in a while to take a step back and remember no matter how bad things are for us they could always be worse. We think we suffer but true suffering like being tortured, beaten or even starving exists while we complain about little things that annoy us. In the end we should always be grateful for what we have, not what we don’t. Does it minimize our own pain I don’t believe so. I think by saying life is short just enjoy it, does belittle your own pain. But there is a grain of truth in the statement. Life is short and we don’t get much time here why spend it on things that cannot be changed. I do love with all that I am but sometimes some people and somethings are not worth the pain or even the time to care. Let it go it’s not worth chasing something not worth your time. Don’t waste time on things or people that aren’t worthy of being with you. Let it go. ~Emma~
Words to reflect on
Faithfully
Faithfully- Journey
Highway run into the midnight sun
Wheels go ’round and ’round, you’re on my mind
Restless hearts, sleep alone tonight
Sendin’ all my love along the wire
They say that the road ain’t no place to start a family
Right down the line, it’s been you and me
And lovin’ a music man ain’t always what it’s supposed to be
Oh, girl, you stand by me
I’m forever yours
Faithfully
Circus life under the big-top world
We all need the clowns to make us smile
Through space and time, always another show
Wonderin’ where I am lost without you
And being apart ain’t easy on this love affair
Two strangers learn to fall in love again
I get the joy of rediscovering you
Oh, girl, you stand by me
I’m forever yours
Faithfully
Whoa-oh, oh-oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh, oh
Whoa-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Faithfully
I’m still yours
I’m forever yours
Forever yours
Faithfully
One day at a time
What is one question you hate to be asked? Explain.
Why are you still single, have never been married or had kids? You are too pretty to not be married. Explanation: I became extremely sick around the age of 21. Spent the next 10-15 years fighting a severe depression. Constantly being hospitalized, under lots of medication, and getting treatment with ECT. So yeah I didn’t have time to get married, have kids or enjoy life during the hell I was going through.
Letting go
Describe the last difficult “goodbye” you said.
It was to a friend or someone I thought was a friend. I was there for this person but they turned on me. I tried to save the friendship but it was beyond saving. Because in the end I learned the only one that truly cared about our friendship was me. It was extremely painful and hard to just let go. To think that you gave your all and that person turned so quickly on you made me feel like crap.
I’m done trying to get you
You can’t hide ugly
Always surprised how people act when speaking of my own mental illness. It’s like mentioning you have the plague. It truly shows their true character that they try to hide behind fake smiles. ~Emma~
