Have you ever got feeling that control over your life is slipping out of your hands or it was never in your control but now even crazy shit is happening and you can't do anything abt it. we usually see our life in confined color space, generally black & white. Have you ever consider introducing yourself to new color ? what leads us to go for new colors and what stops ? how was your first time experience of trying something new. Does it excite you or leave you with undying guilt or it just changes you somehow. lets not go way ahead of ourselves and assume worse beacuse we never let ourselves burden with something that we can't bear. so lets just talk about change and how does it affect us in long term. we all have our demons, lurking, hiding inside of us and attacks when we are most vulnerable. we think we can face it when time comes but what if it shatters you even though you calculated risk all along.

So where does all the preparedness go and what made you vulnerable ? Who is to blame and what you should do? basically your own support system is failed and you can't decide how to deal it on your own. you may think i had answers of all your questions but honestly i didn't know how to deal with it.. If i knew all, i wont be puzzling myself with million possibility. Am i loosing my mind ? Will i ever recover from this ? Are these rhetorical questions or i am just lost in thoughts ?
I have decided to deal with it, no matter what.. so does that mean i have made a deal with my demon or there's any alternate way ? I guess we'll find out in a while..
1) Taking help : how many of us are actually comfortable sharing our deepest darkest secrets, with atlest one person on this earth ? My point is telling or sharing stuff helps unburdening the guilt / stress. You may not always get the best help u seek but atlest you'll have someone by your side to deal with the problem and trust me you can find people who can be trusted.
2) Just wait : you are already in an unbalanced state, now best you can do right now is to stick with basic colors rather haze urself to go for new ones frequently.. Give some time to adapt, a change is to be followed with gap to heal the wounds. the best you can do is wait and find out the essence of change.
3) Don't get lost in the thoughts : How many time have we blamed ourselves for mistakes in the past & does it ever help. So just stop thinking for a while & engage yourself in some activities. There should be zero regret for our choices, whats done is done and there no point crying and wasting our life thinking about it. Try to be more positive about your choices. Here onwards be more assertive.
4) Don't haze next tym : we all are curious minded, always chasing something, crossing broundries. Question is how to decide, when you should take a break chasing ? I don't say one should stop at one change but while moving forward with another change, check if your able to handle another one right now.. whenever we are in situations of making decisions, we dont question ourselves even for a second.. so don't commit same mistake, that you can't rectify..
"Mistakes are the building block of wisdom" - castle
5) Don't let one mistake define us : Doing crazier and crazier stuff wont satisfy the quench, so for once be more selfless and try to rectify the root cause of the problem. Also never consider one mistake as life defining experience, coz life is not about just one single moment but chain of moments.
“We don't make mistakes. We just have happy accidents.” - Bob ross
6) Dont resent yourself : Even at times when you think you have lost the battle, never for a second resent yourself. At first, never hate anyone and then never for a second stop loving yourself because no one on the entire planet can love you more than yourself. point is, killing yourself for the things that could have been different won't get you anywhere. so what if it feels like defeat or you have to live with it for your entire life.. Thing is, we dont know million possibilities that future holds for us, so wait till end to find out.
Even if you know somewhere that life can't be unturned, one should never giveup.. So will it ever be normal ? I guess we have to wait as long as possible to find out. For now this is the new normal.
