Lost and depressed
by: Anonymous

I am NS and over the last ten years I have not been myself. Finding help from my Doctor and other practioners has not helped, I have become a binge drinker, drinking for several consecutive days trying to lift my spirits up when nothing else works.

I come from afamily that does not support sobriety. My father is a drug addict my mother is an inabler. My son was incarcerated for theft and possessing a weapon at the time of his arrest. He was accompanied by three of his cousins. He is now going on 23 years has a child of his own, and is back on the streets selling weed.

I am in a relationship with a man that is very confusing to me. He does not beat me, he works and we live in a nicely furnished home. We dont have a healthy relationship. He ignores me, we dont go out. We dont have children together. I dont have any money of my own and cant leave. For the first time in my life I feel completely lost and hopeless.

Any help out there from someone who has experienced my issues?

Thank you and God Bless

Very good

Despairing thoughts
by: Kay

Thank you for contacting Positive Personal Growth. When we reach rock bottom there can be only one way to go, and this is up. How is this done? By going within. Although you may not realize it, there is inside you an amazing, worthwhile part of you that has to be found and brought back into existence.

This is not going to be an easy journey for you, and you will have to draw on all the inner resources you have let lie dormant as you went on your spiralling journey into despair.

All is not lost because you are now seeking help and this is the major hurdle gone. The rest is still up to you and how you place your thoughts.

Meditation can be a marvellous healing agency that allows you to go within. You might not like the idea of meditation, perhaps you have not done it before. However it is easy and harmless and does not cost anything. It allows you to solve problems on a different level from your normal thinking mind. It will enable you to connect with your inner being, the one that is crying out to be helped.

Sitting quietly is meditating, listening to your favourite music and just letting your mind go wherever it needs to is meditating. Listening with headphones on is also good.

You can if you want, repeat words to yourself, such as, I am worthwhile, I am strong, I love myself, as you meditate. Any positive words that you feel will help to make you how you want to be.

Once you find this lost part of you and bring him back into being a part of you again your life will start to change, because how you feel inside draws into your life the same energies. Despairing thoughts brings despair, hopeful thoughts brings hope, joyful thoughts brings joy, successful thoughts bring success.

Form the thoughts you have throughout your day to be become how you want to be. Say them as though you already are this way. You will get through this. Take one small step at a time, stay positive, determined and true to yourself, and you can, and will, improve your life.

Trust.

Love
Kay
