We live in a world where most of us hate ourselves. We are told if we donât love ourselves then we wonât be able to love anyone. I think they are wrong. People think that because we donât know what itâs like to love ones self we donât know how to love other people. In reality, we donât love us so we love others way to hard. Thatâs where we fail.
We think that since we canât find anything good about ourselves that no one else will see any good. In fact, itâs because of those people we can slowly see the light. They just had to prey a little more to open your eyes. Our whole lives we spend it trying to fill it with people who love us, because we are afraid to be alone. Thatâs where we fail.
In our lives we meet people, love them, get hurt, and hate ourselves, but we can not change how others feel! We can only change how we react to those feelings. When we decide to make a huge decision in our so called âemotional mindâ we act out. Our emotions cloud out our judgements and we do things we later regret. That is where we go wrong.
Just because someone canât love themselves due to their mental disorder , does not mean that they donât love someone else. I loved someone so much, that I didnât love them right. How is that possible you ask? Well let me just inform you!
I cared and loved for them so much, but since I didnât love myself, I lost sight of what they saw. I began to assume they were using me, that they didnât really love me, and that they were cheating. I was so scared of losing them, because I loved them too much, I started to push away. I was so fucked up in my head, that I couldnât be happy with what was in front of me. I knew that they were such a great person, I knew he didnât deserve my insecurities, and I definitely knew that I was always acting in my âemotional mindâ that I was hurting him. Pushing away what I thought I wanted. Till the day I threw it all away.
Well in my mind, itâs all or nothing. My mood shifts from how I feel about myself and others all the time. I always try to avoid amendment (even when itâs all in my head) so I over react to the situation. I cut off from reality. I was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder, but that does not mean I didnât love him. I knew I had to make myself happy before I could make him happy. So I left. I was cold, I was rude and I made a big mistake, but your mental health is important. I still love him to this very day, and I know Iâll never have that chance with him again, but I have been getting help so things wonât go like that again.
If you ever feel like you are suffering from a mental disorder, please seek help. Your mental health is important.
