For Headcase

Hi Headcase sorry to hear that you are having such a hard time at the moment! I have never been to this site before and I was strolling through and your heading “ sunshine” stopped me. So here I am about to reach out to you, this person who calls himself headcase and is some where out there, having such a horrible time. I can appreciate were your demons are taking you as I suffered a horrible bout of Depression myself a few years ago! I think that a lot of it came down to social and childhood pressure to be perfect, so I would not have to feel the shame of what I deemed to be my imperfect self. From that " dark night of the soul" I have come some way in learning some self-acceptance and self love! The say to really know a person you must in turn both love and hate them and I think depression, if that is what you are going through, often can lead to more understanding of the self, ultimately. Everyone as a shadow and no one is perfect. Welcome to humanity!! I don't know you and I don't know what you have done or what you think you have done, but it sounds to me like you are hurting yourself far more then you may have hurt anyone else. If we have had to face a lot of criticism and been put down a lot as a child it take time to heal, learning to love yourself.... Well I will own that ...learning to love myself (and am still learning) takes time and practices. I thought my friend that I would leave you with a little affirmation that I found (Its great to be great, but it's greater to be human)... best thoughts Moonie
