This reminds me of the movie "They live"

8 hours of work. 8 hours of play. 8 hours of sleep.

Tbh no matter how bad I've might have it at any point in time they will be brighter days ahead. Might be a day, week, month, year or God forbid longer but they will come just as the bad. Can always count on that but the bright days need a little prodding sometimes

I mean, there’s no guarantee better days are coming.

Like the people who live behind this add must be positive they will get their view back at some point.

The root of the problem is the judgment of events as positive or negative. Events are events. Worse days implies better days but this also works in reverse. Accept everything the way it is and be free of duality

"When people see some things as beautiful, other things become ugly. When people see some things as good, other things become bad.

Being and non-being create each other. Difficult and easy support each other. Long and short define each other. High and low depend on each other. Before and after follow each other.

Therefore the Master acts without doing anything and teaches without saying anything. Things arise and she lets them come; things disappear and she lets them go. She has but doesn't possess, acts but doesn't expect. When her work is done, she forgets it. That is why it lasts forever."

Thinking positive, but it's been quite some time (around 7 months) since my mental health has seen better days. It would be really great if it was right around the corner... 😔

I love this. I love the comments.

Merry Christmas, everyone. Or whatever winter holiday (or none) you may be celebrating.

Comparing the days to 7 months ago, then yes it has been a while. But has each day the past 7 months been progressively worse than the previous? If so, I apologize as that must be rough.

But if today is a 0 on a scale of 0-10 and tomorrow is a .1 , it will be a better day than today if only slightly.

I hope your road to better days has some big leaps forward but if it’s a longer path of incrementally better days, just know it eventually will get from ‘better than yesterday’ to a good day(s).

Since 7 months ago, each day has been progressively bad. With a dip in September-November, where I've cried silently almost every day. >!It's been a mix of terrible social anxiety, imposter syndrome, feeling completely lonely and left out all the time, and the worst of all: developing feelings for a close work friend (whom I just cannot get out of my mind), all of which has been haunting me throughout the day because I think and overthink about it, and there is no one I can share with.!< As a very shy introvert coming out of the lockdown into RTO, this has all taken me by surprise, and I've never felt worse.

Work is the only thing currently keeping me sane, honestly. And I'm working over 16 hours a day just to distract me from my own mind. My life is blessed and I'm not suffering in life otherwise, so I have hope that this too shall pass. I just need the courage to make it through this.

Thank you so much for listening, and for the motivation.

Yeah no shit. No need to play Pollyanna. If your time is ticking like you have cancer or other trouble coming your way and practically no way to avoid... Sorry but fuck this.
