Yes..
I remember clearly and it is difficult to forget, when in my high school stage, I suffered some of the most disastrous moments that a person can experience and above all a boy, the loss of a being that you love.
My father, a young man, lies dead in front of me and I was barely thirteen (13) years old, unable to understand what was happening at that moment. A violent death by a traffic accident, but for me it was perhaps the darkest moment of my life. From that moment I could never be the same, I could not enjoy things as before, I did not feel like doing anything new, I could not find a place to feel comfortable more than in my room amidst tears and loneliness.
A process that would mark my life for a long time ...
But finally I saw the light at the end of the tunnel, a new day and a new life.
I would like to address this issue not only from the spiritual and psychological point of view but also from the experiential point of view.
The light is there
Living moments of sadness in life is not a problem, as long as you only stay in that, moments, short spaces of time.
No doubt sadness will come, for different reasons that will affect our lives, such as the loss of a family member, failure in your work, a disappointment in love or a close friend, the constant guilt for doing something wrong.
The real problem is in making our sadness day by day, and taking this burden as heavy as if it were our eternal companion, and that with the passage of time could end up crushing us by its weight.
Do not carry the heavy load as if it belonged to you.
Have courage There is a path of faith and strength to overcome the sadness and overcome the difficulties, I'm sure they can overcome the darkness of today and get the light of a new day.
You're not alone.
- Approximately eight hundred thousand (800,000) people annually commit suicide for suffering depression according to WHO data. (This is where I ask myself, What are we doing for them? They need us now!).
5% of the world population suffer from this so-called disorder and most do not have enough help to get out of this situation. And very few extend their helping hand to support even their closest environment.
Do not feel the only one. Thousands of people around us are walking (some are running) without realizing direct depression, and it does not pay attention to ages or social status.
- Even the most famous people with "happy" lives suffer it.
How ironic that my favorite comedy actor Jim Carrey, who has made millions laugh (literally) confessed to being in a state of depression and in an identity crisis. It is shown that not having a comfortable life and often not doing what we really like, makes us exempt from the possibility of being attacked by this "demon" called depression.
Loneliness, anxiety, frustration, selfishness, resentment, addictions, are STARTING millions of young people to the community of depression.
Because of our selfishness, many people are dying (literally).
To completely eliminate one tree and plant another in its place you must take it out by the roots. That is why to understand the present it is necessary to discover the origin.
We can not pretend to solve a conflict without first knowing the antecedents, for which I name here only some reasons (so that they can identify) why a depressive stage begins in many:
. Lack of family affection and dysfunction in interpersonal relationships.
This stage covers our whole life and especially childhood. Failure to develop good communication and fraternal affection with our parents, siblings, other people in our family, friends or environment can lead to a future disregard for society or on the contrary can also generate a strong bond of attachment and undue dependency towards a person.
. Death of loved ones.
Either be friends or family. This results in concentrating our thoughts in this situation of sadness and ingraining them in our hearts so that they will always be present and prevent us from moving from one place to another.
. Emotional traumas of the past.
Thousands of people suffer from this point, the traumas of the past as sexual, physical and psychological abuse, generate feelings of rejection, insecurity, shyness, fear, discouragement and even lose the will to live.
. Do not find your place in the world.
Not getting a place to belong brings frustration, sadness, discomfort and makes people further away from being able to establish relationships with others.
. Genetic and physiological factors.
30% of people who have ancestors with some emotional or physical deficiency, are also likely to suffer the same.
URGENT!
These people without being able to say it to 'vox populi' are clamoring for someone to help them, but they do not have enough determination to make this decision on their own. Experts say that many would change their state of depression for any other type of illness.
If you are reading this and you identify somehow with this, let me give you a message. If there is hope! If there is a way to overcome this stage of your life. Because it's just that, a passing stage.
!Take the first step!
You and I must take the first step to go out and help others to be out of the deep pit of despair in which they are, who knows if we somehow save a few.
Fill yourself with Faith!
Value yourself. Be a frank person, you are not less than or greater than any other.
Increase your self-esteem. You trust yourself, do not create mental movies in your head about what others think of you, because in most cases these thoughts are false, created by ourselves.
Work hard and persevere. Do not be afraid, do not lose heart, be strong and be brave that God will be with you at all times.
Do not close yourself, do not isolate yourself. Even if it is a difficult part, open a space in your life for new people, new relationships, walk little by little.
Change your language. Do not talk bad about yourself, do not accept derogatory words against you, just be a person who is safe and has an identity.
Think different. It is not about thinking positive, but about thinking assertively, and firmly about your convictions.
Dare to fail, there will always be a new opportunity, almost nobody wins something at first
Break the barriers of fear. If you can, but if you never try, you will not know what is on the other side of the wall.
Insists, persists, resists, advances.
Take the decision today to live a new life and do not give up until you get it.
People need us.
Convey compassion and hope. Join us in the process. Let us support and provide prompt attention to this matter.
Pd. I leave a video with which I identify Brian Head Welch
Member of the band Korn and how he was able to go through these circumstances. Now he dedicates part of his art to helping many young people with difficulties.
This post is based on my own life and experience to help Youth find their right place in the right environment-
Thank you to the entire steemit community for your attention.
Thanks to Jesus Christ, the author and finisher of my faith.
