"There are no wrong feelings" is a quote from Alan Watts that stuck with me. The idea that our obsession with right and wrong is possibly a fundemental reason for our struggle with mental health issues.
I put my effort in changing perspective on, what we general consider, negative mental states of being to change our perception of them.
I ask the question if it is possible to appreciate and enjoy even our darkest moments in life. I do not believe in running from our feeling for the simple fact that they are meant to be felt.
I write this as a guide for myself as I have found that once in the dark it is easy to lose the light.
Note: This is a work in progress.
A perspective that suck with me was that there are no wrong feelings. Over my lifetime I have struggled alot with mental health. I am a very introspective person and wished to understand what was happening. I believe in changing perspective will change your perception and in the end heal you.
First of I need to establish my perspective on how the human system work and interact with the enviroment. These are things we take for granted and rarely discuss what they actually are. Understanding how it works brings about some level of calmness on its own.
In the body anxiety and excitment are one and the same. They are both emotions of arousal in terms of fight or flight. Their diffrences are mental in terms of viewing the situation as an opportunity or risk, solution or problem. Knowing this we can play with perspectives to chance our perception. Possibly rebrandning anxiety as excitment in our minds.
Watching a sunset with awe and wonder in my eyes, I can find myself close to tears. There is sadness in that moment. I believe there is appreciation in sadness with a loving goodbye. A letting go of what once served you. Sadness without fear is a lovely emotion.
De-press-ion means an action of letting go of pressure. Forcing ourself to be someone whom we are not or being someone we can no longe be are causes of depression. If you no longer can hold on or if it is ripped away from you doesnt really matter. Both are releases of pressure for you to be remolded and reborn.
There is alot of ways to self harm and they all have their niche. The one that intresst me is punching yourself in the head. I have done it myself, seen other adults do it and stoped children form doing it. It is not cutting yourself to release mental with physical pain nor punishment either. I believe it tells the story of how mental states become physical and survival reverse.
I have climbed out of the dark pit of suicide thoughts far to many times. It is a sensitive and quite fearful subject. I would like to share the ways I have survived them and perspectives on the fenomena. I hope to bring about compassion on the matter and helpful thoughts about it. I do believe I have one perspecitve that people with these thoughts would like and accept far more than people whom doesnt.
The emotion I personally struggle with the most. It is truely the pheonix of emotions. Intensly destructive but also holds the energy release needed to transform. It is the emotion of justice. A dangerour power to weild. Easily abused and missused.
The mother of all so called negative emotions and struggle with mental health. We think hate is the enemy but it is allways fear. Everything you ever wanted is on the other side of fear. All fear stem from the fear of death. I believe it will show itself in what way I need to write about it. It has to be adressed but need to me nurtured.
After years of ponder, exploring philosophy, psycology and pedagogy. I cant helpt myself to find Identity as a underlying issue in the ways of thinking mind. Creating issues opon issues and never really solving anything. If you truely want out of the cage. Dance naked in the realm of emotion and thought. This is the subject on need to adress.
