I need a feedbak of this
Stress is someone that we cannot escape, and it is always upon us through our lives and it changes as the seasons change. I remember meeting stress for the first time and as far back as I could remember I was very young and had a hard time fitting in with my other peers in school. This was the first time I had met Stress. Stress is an internal manifestation of our doubts that come at any place and anytime to overwhelm us and is always close to us, the shadow to our light and the yang to or yin. Stress just seems to come unexpectedly and sometimes could be just right around corner, the neighbor that we do not want to talk or converse with or next to us when we sleep. We invite stress into our home, life, and world the same way a couple invites a baby into society and with every day that goes by stress grows up as a baby becomes a toddler.
Stress is the friend that I wish I could escape; however, he always seems to find me no matter where I go even if the days are different and the seasons changes Stress always seems to find a way. We know we must escape it and stay strong, but sometimes it seems hopeless because we hear that voice in our minds that makes us feels hopeless. The darkness we are trying to escape from is impossible and sometimes the light at the end of the tunnel seems too far away. Stress followed me around a lot during my teenage years during my school life. He made it even more challenging for me. I was very withdrawn, and I would keep to myself and Stress would try to convince to me that the powers of others accepting me could not be achieved. My mind plunged into the distress of my constant overthinking and I as stood thinking repeatedly I realized that the people who wanted to speak to me decided to distance themselves.
My friend Stress kept me all to himself and I did not realize what could be waiting for me outside the bubble could it be paradise or despair? These are some of the questions I wonder about and do not have answers to. We must find a way to push on in hard times and we have a chance every day in our lives, however our friend Stress will be waiting for us every time we go to school, park, movies, and on vacation. He just seems to invite himself without our consent and does whatever he wants and just gets involve in our lives and is the persistent friend we want to avoid but he speaks to us and confuses our thoughts.
Stress is our never-ending battle that can bring out the best or worst of us sometimes. We overanalyze, overthink, and can easily become worried about things often because it is in our nature and stress knows this. We try to find out how to deal with our problems through asking adults and sometimes they say, “You have to figure it out” or “Do not worry too much” and I feel those are the statements that empower my friend Stress. I noticed that he grows better the more I think and shrinks the clearer my mind is, and I wonder is there way I can unfriend him and escape him? My mind just shifts, and no one can seem to give me an answer.
Stress is aware of how we are affected by the things we see either from television or personally in our everyday experiences. We just thought we got rid of stress and then we witness someone who has passed away on the news or someone who chose to commit suicide and then we start to think in our minds “here we go again” and stress comes back to us like a boomerang that was thrown. We can see stress as a parent we did not ask for and do not want to be around sometimes it is stronger and sometimes he is softer. I do not know if we will ever be free from the wrath of stress. The time will go by and months will change, however the only answer I see is not so simple as right and wrong. Stress can hang out with us too often and I think sometimes we think “Maybe he will go away if I disappear” and we come to find that stress is as close to us as our shadow is connected to us. The battle we have against our unhealthy friend always seems to be a long one. The only answer I can think of how to deal with it is to live and seek out the answers ourselves.
