Halima MahmudPublished 4 months ago in PsycheHow to stop being lazy and pathetic
Hey, I totally get it! Sometimes it feels like nobody cares if we're lazy or not. But you know what? We can't let that hold us back. Life keeps moving, and we gotta keep up with it. It's true that everyone has their own problems and struggles, so we can't expect others to pity us for too long. We gotta take charge and make things happen for ourselves.I remember this neighbor I had back in my hometown. She was always complaining and being negative. It seemed like she was stuck in a cycle of unhappiness. But you know what? My mom, who's an immigrant and has been through so much, never let herself fall into that trap. She had no choice but to keep pushing forward and taking care of our family. She didn't have the luxury of being lazy or playing the victim.Sometimes, when we're in survival mode, we don't have the option to be lazy. We have to keep going, even when things get tough. It's like those who are struggling to climb up the stairs and catch their breath. They can't give up, because they know they need to lose that weight to feel better. And for those who are vulnerable and need to gain weight for their health, they have no choice but to do what's necessary.So, my friend, let's leave laziness at the door and embrace the mindset of pushing forward and making things happen. We have the power to overcome obstacles and achieve our goals. Let's do this together!

Due to me being a mental health advocate, I feel I need to say something on the subject purely from a trauma informed perspective.

Someone Else is Me
Dear Me, Dear You, I have arrived at the beginning of the end of something negative. Perhaps that’s an odd way of expressing positivity, but if there's one thing that the past few years have taught me, it is that the old, normal way of doing everything should no longer serve as the basis for future plans.
