 Living with depression, anxiety,  and PTSD can be one big suck fest. You want to be happy and it isn't easy. You have people who say get over it or you are lazy. Not what you want to hear. It just makes it worse.  They say they understand and tell you what to do which upsets you even more.  It can be overwhelming. Sometimes people hear us but don't actually listen. Healing isn't easy and doesn't happen at the snap of fingers. Sometimes having depression or anxiety or any form of mental illness sometimes makes us sound like a broken record.  Many don't call or text first because they feel like a burden or they are bothering people.  Some days we like people and other days we don't like people at all. Every person handles things differently and sometimes we fall back down the dark tunnel and can't see the light.  We criticize ourselves. Don't think we deserve the best even though everyone deserves the best just like everyone deserves love.  It is hard to

 We put expectations on people or put them on a pedestal when we shouldn't.  When you have expectations and expect things of others you will always be left disappointed.  Putting people on a pedestal like they don't do wrong and like they are perfect isn't right.  No one is perfect we all make mistakes. Not everyone is going to be there.  Plans will be broken.  Life happens. Don't expect people to support you the same. Don't expect people to like the same things or people you don't.  Don't expect them to think the same way you do. Don't put people on a shelf and take them down when you want them.  People aren't puppets or toys that you can play with. People fail. People get lost. They make mistakes. No one is perfect.  It is about looking at the flaws and loving them anyway. Stop setting yourself up for disappointment with your expectations.

 Here lately I have been questioning who my real friends are in real life and online.  So many times I have heard people say I will come hang out with you,  but they don't make the time to. Many times I have called or text first. When it comes to calling or texting me most don't check on me first.  So many use the excuse of I am bad about calling or texting first. The phone works both ways just like going to visit people. If you have time to post on social media or play games on phone then take a break and check on your family and friends. Check on people who do take the effort to take time out of their lives to see how you are doing. People need to learn how to stop being busy and take a breath. Enjoy the people who love and care about you.  Stop making excuses not to be there for each other.  It's hurtful when you text people and they leave you on read for days. It's hurtful when people say they will be there and they aren't there. It hurts when you support people

People are so full of hate which is down right sad. If someone doesn't think the same way they make them feel bad. Stop doing that. People are aloud to have a different opinion and you not hate them for it. It is okay to agree to disagree.  STOP HATING PEOPLE FOR BEING DIFFERENT THAN YOU.  You can dislike it or dislike their actions.  Hate takes to much energy. Stop being jealous and petty. You don't have to like the same things or have the same opinion as everyone else.  STOP SHAMING PEOPLE. Spread love and light.  STOP TEARING PEOPLE DOWN. Stop being ugly to people.  You have the choice to put a stop to hate. You're in control of you and no one else.  Use your words and you can do so in such a way that it doesn't have to come out hateful.  Be that light and shine for others. Set a better example for a better future. 

 People need to learn to be there for each other more. They need to call, text, and go visit those they love and care about.  Stop making excuses.  It doesn't take much time to ask how are you doing,  telling people you care about them,  and you love them.  Tomorrow isn't here and the present is now. Stop putting it off. The ones we care about and love matter. Make them feel it. We need to remember that the people in our lives are just as important as we are.  We need to take time and listen.  Quality time is important.
