The Escape
I spent 20 years of my life in a dark depression. I always held hope that the light I saw in distance was only a step away. The darkness was a winding labyrinth of infinite dead ends and my steps were agonizingly slow. Half step here and half step there. But I kept walking and in time, despite my anguish I took even and steady steps. I walked and walked in an endless darkness but I knew there was light somewhere and then finally, without me having realized it, I had found it and I had already escaped. It is possible to escape depression. It is a difficult journey, not because we must do difficult things to escape it, but because there are so many dead ends in an seemingly infinite darkness and our feet are heavy and stiff. But dont give up, keeping walking and dont stop. Because when you escape you won't even realize you already have. So please, keep walking. #writing #depression #hope #philosophy #life #lifeadvice #intp #religion #spiritual #spirituality #philosophical #happy #beauty #languages #poetry (edited)

According to psychology : When someone truly loves you, his biggest fear is not losing you, but hurting you. When someone only loves the way you make them feel, his biggest fear is losing his -access- to you. Know the difference 🌸🌸🌿

Hard pills to swallow : "How did I get played by someone that wanted me first?" What that person DID to you, has absolutely nothing to do with you, or your personality, it wasn't your fault. 🌸🌸🌿

🚩🚩🚩 You'll never find someone like me ✅✅✅ I am replaceable... but confident enough to know you will not find anyone who will accept you for the "real you" the same way I did
--- Different ways will give you different results.

Psychology Says... You Talk to Yourself Because You're Smart
Me: "Where are my keys?" Also me: "If I were keys, where would I hide?" Psychology: Totally normal. High-functioning brain. Possibly genius. Me: "Thank you, brain. Let’s go find snacks

It's sad, and people don't want to admit it but it's absolutely the truth - another song, Bleeding Love (Leona Lewis) tells a similar story. A surprising number of women are receptive to poor treatment from men. It's toxic and unhealthy - but it's truth.
Furthermore, it coincides with a tendency for women to be attracted to men with "Dark-Triad Traits" - a point I've made many times in the past. You see this often with Serial Killers and other criminals, notably Ted Bundy abd Gary Ridgeway. I get immense flak for saying it but no matter how anyone... (edited) read more

Straight to the point .. then
Am very a very direct person and as it says … “straight to the point”.. Why after , do I then go around in circles over and over to explain it, to then finalise with… basically … <Straight to the point> again, going full circular 😂😂😂

Is anyone else dealing with a lot of loneliness and depression?
I'm not sure why but mine has been acting up heavily as of late. Just wishing I had more friends and people to hang out with.

Hello
Hey everyone. Just putting a wee post out because I’m feeling a bit lonely at the minute and could really do with someone to talk to. I’ve never been someone with loads of friends — I tend to hide away when I’m struggling, and right now is one of those times. I was chatting to someone on here and... read more

That I don't accept from men on this app are wild. I rejected a request from a man who asked "will you submit to me?" Submit to what, sir? I'll submit your body to the morgue

is there anything you want to say?
since the highlight of our human lives is feeling, thinking, being. is there anything you want to say? maybe something that resides within due to fear (of multiple factors). a honesty and truth that just hasn’t had its debut. something to scream to the world, even if it doesn’t change how the... read more

What is authenticity?
They say to heal from insecure attachment, one must learn how to feel safe while being authentically themselves in every context. Essentially, stop code switching. Interrupt the hypervigilence. But... The reality is, we legitimately are not safe in every context. How do you feel secure in a world... read more

Emotional responsibility ❤️🩹
Lack of interest is not solved by ignoring the person you don’t want to interact with. There’s a girl (Valeria Wise 👩🏻⚕️) here on Boo who explains it quite well: “Sometimes, people need a clear and direct response to understand there’s no interest. However, it’s also true that we’re not always... read more

Am I overreacting?
One of my female roommates calls me "hunny" in texts and it pisses me off because it sounds condescending. Is this just me? I guess there's the issue that I'm 8 years older than her as well lol

The contraddiction of connections
This is the feeling. The push and pull of wanting connection so badly, but having absolutely zero energy for it. Two things can be true at once, even when they feel like they're at war with each other. I know so many of you get this. We crave deep conversations, genuine friendships, and the...
