Scoldings amplify pain, not make people stronger. by FurryJackman

It's started again. The whole "You're just lazy" arguments that just restart all the pain back into full gear.

Those facilitating the logistics to get me to and from the psychologists that are supposed to help me with therapy now just think I'm lazy, and won't carry through with treatment because I'm "lazy."

When the source of your pain comes from scoldings from people about "You're immature, you're lazy, you're too old to be a child." You just want to give up and just let the world take life and your vital signs away from you. Now when it comes from the people with the logistical powers to help you get better, what's the point in even getting better. I should seriously give up, and seek an assisted suicide if people are just going to keep producing this much pain that can't be cured.

Scoldings amplify pain, not make people stronger.

    The point isn't to do it for them. The point is to do it for YOU. You're not doing this to be less of a burden on the people who ignorantly think you're intentionally being a burden. You're doing it to free yourself from the burden. And if I can give you just one piece of advice on this, bud, it's that the one thing you have to keep most firmly in your mind is that you ARE worth it. YOU are worth putting forth an effort. YOU are worth getting better. YOU are worth overcoming these hurdles. YOU are worth breaking these chains and getting yourself into a head-space where you can actually function and do what you enjoy doing and actually start enjoying life again. The selfless person struggles with doing something for themselves no matter how much they need it. The more you let it be about other people, and the more those other people piss you off or let you down, the less motivated you'll feel to do something that isn't for them to begin with. Self-care is not selfishness, my friend.

      My parents forced me into a habit of thinking hard about what others think because I was incapable of doing it on my own, but nothing good has come of whatever I've done. I don't see the point anymore. With my finances ruined, my friendships ruined and my treatment logistics ruined... I don't see anything other than death.

        The world isn't over just because you've run into a wall. And don't start thinking that just because you've come to a halt it means you've never accomplished anything to get to that point.
