Fighting For Your Own Survival
Potential trigger warning for this post. It might bring up difficult feelings and emotions, thoughts.
My intention for this post is not to make anyone uncomfortable. It is to help someone who is going through something I’ve gone through.
As the title states, I’ve had to fight for my own survival.
Not in the literal sense.
My material needs have always been met.
I went to private schools, I’ve almost always had more than enough material possessions and money.
This is a story of internal struggle, pain and overcoming it slowly.
For anyone reading this and if You are going through something similar, know that it will most likely be a long journey.
Usually, it takes time to move from the darkness to the light.
Throughout my life, I’ve struggled with the meaning of it.
With the way, people treat each other, the way this society and world are.
With my sensitivity to all of the cruelty around.
How I don’t fit in and my way of thinking does not fit in.
I also struggled with the pain this experience entails. I couldn’t make sense of it. I couldn’t handle it.
