been out there and lived in the real world in society, might have more of a valid opinion about life and everything than i have, and will be able to contribute more than me. like their better than me, because i have mental health probs and live a very solitary existance. so they will no more about life than me?.this thought got me really down
Answers:
You may be able to contribute more than they do because you have a mental illness. You are better able to understand chronic illness better than most. You also don't have a preconceived opinion about what people are like who have a mental illness. These two things make you more understanding of others than most of the "real" world. If you get out around people more, you may be able to contribute better but by just using the Internet, you may be reaching more people than you would by going to work every day and working with people directly.
Keep in mind that every person's opinion is based on their experiences. Just because people have had different things happen in their lives doesn't make them smarter, well informed, more creative or better than you. You may live a solitary existence and still excel in many areas. Many famous people have had problems with mental illness. Try doing some research on your computer and you will find out that you are in the company of great minds.
people are just wrapped up in work sex and stuff to care about anything like that.. i think its everyone else that has the problem and not someone like you.. . .
Well don't be too hard on yourself.I too have been very disappointed by finding out that people really don't want to hear about my problems.This is the world we live in.They have got their own problems to deal with.And as stated in a simular question,this is where fellowshipping with others helps so much.You will find that at a church and not on here.Although I am concerned,enough to answer,I am not qualified to be a theropist.You May need to see a good friendly doctor.He may help you find out why you feel this way.Don't sweat the small stuff and get busy doing something you like to do.Make a list of what you like and start doing those things.PEACE AND GOD BLESS YOU!!
Did you have to look hard for this thought to get you down? I own a cactus plant that puts out a flower that only lives for about an hour. That means not very many people get to see it, because it is gone so soon. That does not make it any less beautiful than other flowers, just because they last longer.Some times the greatest thing a person can be is alive, and the best thing they can ever do is to be there in case a friend or loved one needs someone some day. God created all of us. He knew we wouldn't all be perfect, or brilliant, but He made us, anyway. He knew that we would each have one shining moment when our lives were special, would have meaning, even if we were unaware of it ourselves. My cactus doen't know if anyone sees it's lovely, brief bloom. But it grows it anyway.
no one knows what life is all about. you just have a differant version. no less no better. just another view on things. and that aint bad at all.
listen, I too have mental problems and am no better than you. There are alot of people out in the world who probably have more mental problems than we do. Do not put your self down. Just do the best you can. And get out sometime if you get the chance. Go to a park or something.Maybe they just know more about life than you do right now. But you can change that later if you want to.
