Prayer, speaking a prayer aloud. Poor out your fears and concerns in a spoken prayer asking for comfort and clarity. Write down what is bothering you, everything even the things you don’t want others to know, your worse thoughts and fears. Don’t go back and look it, just leave it there or burn it if you must. Talk to someone who won’t judge you, know that even though there is pain now, we only know joy and happiness because we experience sorrow and pain. At my lowest I try to be in the moment, listen for any sounds and understand you are where you are at that moment, you are ok in that moment, just be there. Listen and observe, don’t try to stop yourself from thinking things. If I say, “stop thinking about ice cream”…I’m going to think about ice cream. Acknowledge the thoughts your mind presents and let them be. I had a bad night this week, couldn’t sleep and prayed and sobbed for comfort. The pain in my heart wouldn’t stop so I woke up my husband and asked for help. I talked through my fears and he helped me get a different perspective from my one track mind. This is coming from someone who has struggled with “giving up” for many years. Some of us are more predisposed to that challenge for whatever reason. Don’t give up, pain makes us stronger to help others. You would miss out on so much possible joy in the future. Find one thing that was good today, even a funny meme.
