Can You Hit a Point You Are Beyond Mental Repair?
Depends I guess, how aware are you?
The minute you decide to stop seeking, asking or getting help you could be in deep trouble. Mental health is no fucking joke.
Generational trauma has a way of sneaking up later in life. It’s very subtle, I guess some would call it a mid-life crisis.
They realize they have been living a life that was not theirs, but of others.
And now just realize they don’t know who they are, or who the fuck it was they married. They’ve spent years holding up this image, fighting back emotions, most likely catering to others (family, kids, friends, social media) etc and ignored their needs.
In my drunken stupors I wanted to pull the plug on life. If there was a painless “off switch” I would have slammed the fucker off 2 years ago.
Unfortunately many aren’t aware enough to see the trauma under all the madness. They blame spouses, situations, life, careers, politicians, choices, etc. but they never look at the common denominator, THEM.
Some may say they see it, but they don’t. It’s what makes them feel better in that moment. They just want relief.
