my life is very dark at the moment, I will continue to play the game and move forward

[pavelooo]

Thanks for reminding that. I been having really tough times mentally, physically. And there's no one to go to. Thanks internet, you help me go another day. May you all find peace.

Summary on ways to cope:

1. Shorten the timeframe of your perspective. Instead of thinking "how am I going to survive this for 1 year?", narrow it to just 1 month. If thinking of 1 month is hard, look forward to surviving the day. If the day is hard, look forward to surviving just the next hour. This helps alleviate unnecessary overthinking and suffering in the mind, AKA anxiety. Cut the timeframe until you can cope with it.

2. Be alert to the little beauties in life, the little things to be happy for. Look for glimpse lights, even if the tunnel is long and dark.

3. If it's tragic, at least don't make it hell. Try not make the situation worse than it already is, this helps us tolerate with things needed to be tolerated in the present.

To put it lightly I'm going through some very dark times with a lot of uncertainty on the horizon and I can say first hand this works if put into practice.

Do I really have the honor of being the first to comment?
Wow...
What do I say...?
I love you Dr. Peterson. Thank you.

So true. Sometimes you can only handle the inch in front of you.

My father is on his deathbed.

He has few weeks/months at most, and he is suffering a lot.

He can't walk by himself, he can't eat or drink anything by himself, he can't go to washroom by himself either.

It has been very tough on us, specially my mother, because she's close to 60 as well.

So recently I have started to help around in taking him step by step from here to there.

He let's all of his weight go on the person holding him, so it's very difficult to control him.

My mother was going through sleepless nights and she's also a heart patient, so I realised that if I don't intervene and help, I might just end up losing both of them.

This may sound brutal, but I'd rather have my father pass away after living his last few months and help him around, so my mom can take rest as well.

This is the best decision there is to make.

Life is fucking tough, but as long as I choose to be powerful, I'll come out victorious. Maybe with few scars, but victorious in the end.

Two days ago, I put a really soft blanket on my bed and it made me happy. Just the nice warm color makes me feel better already. I'm glad I atleast have a nice home so while shit is bad, I still have my safe space at home

[natashacorker]

Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. Think about him in all your ways and he will guide you along the right paths

My best friend died suddenly today. It is a dark time. Thankful for his memory and those small things in life.

[louisbisignano]

Ty Jordan immeasurably valuable, I began a very dark journey today but I know have a starting point and
some introspective direction.I hope you realize how important what you do is.

Many years from now, I believe people will look back and reflect on Peterson as our generation once reflected on Marcus Aurelius, Socrates, and many other groundbreaking philosophers.

That’s facts. One gets caught up in these sort of time loops where we think the current circumstance can potentially be forever, but it’s a trap, such loops. If one gets caught up with that sort of thinking, good luck coming out alive.

[clintcalvert]

Thank you for this. I’m very sincere in thanking

[KeepRowing]

Reminds me that it’s okay to shorten my bandwidth for whatever I’m dealing with. It’s okay to take time to walk away, and admire the simple beauties of life, especially during time of tragedy and hell, no matter how large the gap is

Bloody miracles are possible
Just gotta keep rowing

[reciprocalhealing]

Such a wise man, so committed to truth… I appreciate this.

[Fony_turgeson]

I hope God. The lord above sees I'm not lying I'm in I want to end it
