If You Cannot Do Anything About It Then "LET IT GO",Don't Be A Prisoner To Things You Can't Change.









If you can't do anything about it, then let it go.
Don't be a prisoner to the things you can't change.
Let go of the things that are out of your control.


Worrying about them isn't going to impact them, but rather working towards them with hope and good intentions in mind may help to effect what you desire to change.

Don't be a prisoner to your mental health.
You may not be able to change the fact that you struggle with mental illness, but while pain is inevitable, suffering is a choice, and choosing to cling to your illness and allow it to define you is setting yourself to suffer,
LET IT GO !

And NO, it's not easy to let go of the identity your mental health has given you, yet the more you fight it and let it define you, the louder and more stubborn it will get, and choosing and deciding to have a life worth living, even while you still may be struggling, is a sign of true and unmeasurable strength.

You may not be able to do anything about the fact that you struggle, but you can choose to not let your struggle define you, even if they are out of control; accept what you cannot change. don't allow what you cannot change to define you, and don't ever believe that worrying about something enough will impact it- You must be willing to define yourself and your future, rather than letting your worries define you,
So, LET IT GO !
What you can't control rather focus on the things you can control, such as your attitude, your presence, your moral, your beliefs, your optimism, - Everything you can control, work to make a positive impact in those areas, and don't allow your mental health to define you, but rather allow your strengths in the things you can control for the better, let go of the things out of your control, and allow you to define yourself above all else through the things you can control and the person you want to be for yourself.

One day at a time !

As its not always easy to let it go... How much time one should take before letting it go? Or how soon should one decide that it's right time to let it go?

Happiness is Here and Now !

A few ways to practice mindfulness- Choose one of your five senses and focus on it wholly. Perhaps you are slowing down to really taste your food,  observing the smell of many flowers in your garden, or watching the sunrise/set without allowing your mind to wander. Close your eyes (or fix your gaze on an non moving object) and bring your focus to your breath. Inhale and Exhale . Focus on the sensations in your body, and allow wandering thoughts to visit and pass on as you bring your focus back to your breath. If you find it helpful, you can also add a mantra to your breath, such as "Breathe in peace, Exhale chaos." or " breathe in 'I acknowledge' (whatever emotion is at the forefront of your mind), exhale 'I care for' (whatever emotion is on the forefront of your mind.) Run your hands under cold water or hold ice cubes until they melt and focus on the sensation of how it makes your hands feel. One should mindfully participate in an...

Its Okay to cry , the sky does it too !

Its okay to feel sadness and remorse towards the time you've lost to your mental disorder,  and it's okay to be afraid of the fact that you lost time. Yet, one thing rings true : No matter what time you feel you've lost to your mental illness, it was time you spent gaining strength, courage, and wisdom for the road ahead and though you are allowed to feel sadness and mourn that time that mental illness may have taken from your life, also be grateful for that time, in knowing it has brought you to the exact point you need to be at today. You may have missed out on or been overwhelmed by, to feel angry over the cancelled plans and the interruptions of treatment and therapy, to feel remorse towards what your mental disorder has taken from you. AND, you are also allowed to be proud of what the time gave you. You are also allowed to, at the same time as mourning, recognize that your mental illness was just as much as a blessing as it was a curse, as it gave you qualities and ...

If You Are A Little Better Than You Were Yesterday Then That's Enough

Today if you are a little better than you were yesterday, then that's enough. Never believe that you must solve all of your problems at once, that you must be completely recover in a short time or that you are wrong of flawed for continuing to struggle- take small steps each day in the right direction, for the active effort of moving in the right direction is enough to create a gradual impact, one step at a time. Don't hold yourself to the standard that you must take giant steps in order to be successful, take your journey step by step, from going to the grocery by yourself to driving a car after not getting behind the wheel for a couple of years, or even calling a friend you have'nt talked to in a while, it is often the little steps that add up to a great amount in the end, and that ultimately have the most impact upon your journey in the right direction. Don't believe that you have failed or done something wrong if your journey is taking time. Every journey moves a...
