previously dark place. apply within.

don't get trapped in your own brain. it's easy to get stuck there, looping around, feeding it like a dark force over you. like you have to be controlled by it. that it is right and you are wrong. that your self worth is in some way questioned. you will be made to reflect on this many times and it will be overwhelming. you will question everything. what you are doing, where you are going, why you, why is this happening to me, frustration and anxiety coming in waves, retreating further inside, away from the problem, allowing it gather more fuel in the process.

we run and hide because we believe in it's constant verses and mummerings. but you have to rise above that white noise. you have to find and established a safe mental zone to break things down and process things one by one. you can't give in to cycles otherwise you will be lost and won't be able to find the safety of a thoughtful time to process. don't allow others to force their will on you either, don't allow yourself to be broken by words, build up that bs firewall.

december is a very tough month for a lot of people. don't forget to ask people how they are and lend a hand or offer some help, even a hot drink or some food, buy two things in the shop and give one away. connect at eye level. make them understand you care, compassion can mean everything to someone with nothing.
