The weird thing about feeling over-whelmed is, just rush to the bathroom and take a soothing shower to wash off the fatigue and hug yourself.

After the shower, close your eyes and go to sleep. but make sure that when you wake up, you’re again focused on your life goal and where you are heading.

If you don’t have a goal yet, then simply do something that you want to do or you love to do and solely and solely focus on that.

And if you still can’t forget about it, then close all the doors of your room, curl up on your bed and start talking to yourself.

Start telling yourself all the things you’re feeling currently. let it all out. Say it as if you’re telling someone what you’re really feeling without feeling judged.

Talk to yourself. I know this sounds crazy, but trust me, this helps a great deal.

Tell yourself all the things that you’re feeling and speak openly.

somewhere along the lines, you will find the answers you’re looking for and would also maybe realize that the situation is not as worse as you made up in your head to be.

yesterday, I put a story on my Instagram hinting this method and one of my friends DM’d me saying, “doesn’t this sound like you’re just too lonely?”

Well, it definitely sounds lonely, but isn’t as lonely as we think it is.

And besides we all need to be lonely to actually be able to solve some mental strains. Because at the end of the day, we all go to sleep alone, all by ourselves.

I’ve thought of other ways as well, but this always works the best. when you’re all by yourself and listen to yourself like how you would listen to your friend telling their side of the story.

Be your own listener as well as the person who shares her deepest thoughts.

I’ve tried talking to my friends when I really want to let things out in the past. And it did really make me feel good, but only for the time I was talking to them. after we kept the call or after I came back home, I started feeling like I still hadn’t moved on from those feelings, even if my friends gave me the best of advice. the soothing feeling only lasted till I had my friends company, and when I came back home it was still only me struggling all by myself all over again.

So, as I observed this situation, I realized that I need to fix things with myself first and talking to my friends would only help me temporarily and not really heal me.

So, to heal myself , I had to get alone with myself.

I deserve better. I deserve to treat myself better and only I can make myself really feel at ease.

It may sound hyper-independent but as we grow older, we eventually realize that we only have ourselves to soothe us at the end of the day.

If whatever I said above sounds confusing, then I’m really sorry. I didn’t know how to word all of this properly as this really sounds confusing and also something that makes sense altogether.

But if you understood, what I’m trying to say then please do share your side of what you think of my approach.

Does it sound too hyper-independent issues or loneliness?

Yours truly,
