Anxiety | You know when we used to be so used to something that we're so comfortable already and feels happy about but then suddenly one day everything changes kinda feeling. Everything just sort of change very rapidly. And you didn't even know it until that one particular moment.
My health deteriorate badly for the past few month and the same goes to my mental health accept for it gets even worst day by day without me knowing what actually happen to this body of mine. I sort of having a mental breakdown for quite a while. A major one. That doesn't end there, my face also shows a lot of reversal to how it once was.
Breakout.
That's the word. I knew it at first that it happens due to my unstable hormones even though I thought it was due to allergies. Nope that's not it. It all comes in a package.
What actually happens to my body?
It was definitely fatigue. Fatigue means an extreme tiredness resulting from mental or physical exertion or illness. I feel fatigue all day long even when I'm sleeping. You're supposed to feel refresh and healthy once you've had your sleep as your body rest but it was the total opposite for me. Can you imagine feeling nauseous and extremely tired once you're up from bed each and every morning.
Decisions
There's a lot to do and to think about but my mind and my body are not in sync that everything is kinda messed up on my side without anybody knowing it. How do you imagined I went through everyday with that state I'm in. I looked okay but there's this part of me that keeps me on my two feet, trying my best to stay awake when I can barely holding on.
People surrounding
It took a lot of courage and energy just to even lift my heads up to the people around me. And then I went back home with tears in my eyes until I collapse and later woke up to see another day.
I lost it but I pretend like I had it
One minute I was okay, and a second after I was bawling my eyes out. That's how unstable I was. I was holding my tears through the entire time but when the pail is full it all poured out just like that bammm. I was not okay and I never am. People say to pretend like you're okay. It's easy to say pretending to be okay when you're actually breaking down physically and most importantly my mental is nowhere as good as it was. I am mentally sick and unstable. I was and I am.
Yes blame me for feeling what I'm feeling. People can say that when they're not me and they don't even know the slightest thing about it. That's what make it worst. They're all pretending to know and act like they care when they actually don't. There's a voice inside saying that they are all sick and bored of your act. I am not acting. Neither do I want this. Who wants it? Tell me.
I do know that a lot more people out there felt the same and they are struggling in the outside world when all they want was just to have a simple life. But when it gets out of control all they can do is just sit there at the corner of the room hoping things will get better since no one actually lend them a shoulder to cry or even extend their hand to help them get out of that dark room. Yep it's dark inside where only they can see what they see. A totally different vision.
Have you ever feel the same?
Ray tukar template kah? ke perasaan kc je? hahaha.
ReplyDeletekc tak pernah expereince severe anxiety macam tu kot. cuma kalau nak period or tengah period memang mood tak stabil. kejap emo, kejap ok. cepat sentap, cepat rasa sedih, cepat rasa nak marah orang walhal benda kecik je pun. its such a mix feeling.

ReplyDeleteI'll keep that in mind. thank you again mama dear
DeleteSelalu juga ada kena mcm ni tp rutin akk terlalu sibuk. Adakala, boleh lupakannya
ReplyDeletei tried so hard utk cri things to do and distract this feelings.
Deleteglad i hit on the title. "anxiety" is such an intriguing word. more than just a very short temporary nervous or little joy of excitement. and "square" is such a wonderful figure yet it can be very empty too. i know i'm not in good condition to give words of wisdom or sort of that but just so you know you're not alone though you feel so. i know that feeling. maybe not as similar and difficult as yours but i know. thinking about you're going through it, this could sound bad but it is just me being concern that it kinda of trigger that feeling. let's go through this together. slowly let go the past and who cares about future, what's matter is the present. at least today, let's be happy just once again. all the best to us! love you =)
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOD I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!! I teared up while reading this. I can never explain this feelings but am so thankful for each and every word you wrote here. this means a lot to me. I wish you all the best too. I hope a lot of people are aware of this because it can get severe in no time if it is not treated well. I tried so hard to get out of it and couldn't really do it without the help of other. I'm glad I found the right circle of people to help me out. and you are too included. I love you moreee ^^
Deletecomeback here to read my comment and your reply again and again. i'm thankful that you took my words in a good way =)
DeleteAwww you are most welcome. I was actually thankful to you for giving me such encouraging words. i hope you are doing better now.
DeleteIt's like you're speaking my mind. I'm bad with words. I don't know how to explain what I feel so I often bottled things up.
ReplyDeleteSo this is exactly what I feel about my anxiety, thanks to you.
Ikr. Sometimes we all feel the same but it's hard to actually convey what those feelings are. I bare manage to write it here but I did it anyway. We have to actually support each other. I'm glad I managed to at least be in synced with you.
Deletehidup mmg mcm ni. suka o x kena hadapi jg...kuatkan hati dan trs kn hidup seperti biasa...
ReplyDeletethat is so true. no doubt. it's just sometimes it feels like we're being hit hard by a big rock making it even harder to get back up.
Deletethe struggle is real Ray.. And it happens to me too..
ReplyDeleteApa yang boleh akak cadangkan ialah Ray kena luahkan.. Jangan pendam.. Ambil masa untuk diri sendiri.. menangis, tidur, luahkan pada someone atau blog atau buat apa sahaja untuk lepaskan semua rasa yang tersimpan tu.. Kena, kalau simpan dan pendam it's going to be hell inside your heart.. U just need a shoulder to cry and people to listen whats have been build up inside your heart.. Supaya Ray boleh keluar dari kegelapan itu.. Take your time and dont push to hard to be back on track.. Just keep in yourself that life is always balance with happiness, sadness, angry and other emotions.. welcome them and embraced them..
Sorry kalau english tak okay.. Harap dapat membantu.. Walaupun rasa itu hanya Ray yang faham, akak doakan Ray terus kuat dan berjuang.. Jangan mengalah dan duduk dalam kegelapan.. You can do it..
Awwwwww this means a lotttttttttt. I am so blessed to encounter so many people with beautiful souls. I can't describe it in words but this is beautiful. It doesn't matter how your english was because what's important is the message behind it. May Allah bless you and your family. I'm really thankful for this. I really am.
DeleteIndeed, anxiety not only affecting your mental health, but also your physical health. Your face having breakouts, feeling so tired even you are doing nothing, loosing courage, determination and many more. But dear, sometimes it is okay to cry it out loud, let go of all the burdens, and get help. Let your self to be depressed for a day but stand up strong for the next day and face it bravely. Take your time to reach the top. Good things doesn't come in a day. Stay strong dear :D
ReplyDeleteOkay I wanna cry. hmmm thnk you so so so much. I really appreciate this. Alhamdulillah I am feeling so much better now thanks to the support that I had from you guys. I hope you are doing well too. take care

yep true. i hope we'll both survive and fully recover from it someday. so proud of you.
Deletefighting !
Rabia pernah alami mental exhausted because terlalu letih and penat layan kerenah kwn2 segroup assignment.
ReplyDeleteWell that is normal bila ada group assignment. i know you can handle it. ^^
DeleteOMG, i hv the same situation now. Tak tahu mana nak luahkan, cuba untuk berlagak normal, sembanyang dan berdoa tapi hati dan perasaan hanya Allah yang tahu. Perasaan bercampur baur, nak jumpa orang pun rasa malas, nak duduk rumah rasa sunyi sepi. Rasa semua akan hilang dari hidup ini. Adakah perasaan takut akan kehilangan atau hormon dalam badan yg dah masuk 50 ni berubah..sis pun tak tahu. Moga kita yang alami perasaan sebegini dipermudahkan dan diberi ketenangan
ReplyDeleteاَمِين يَا رَبَّ الْعَالَمِيْن . In shaa Allah.
DeleteI truly understand that and it hurts a lot. It's hard to describe that feeling we're struggling with because sometimes it can't even be explained with words. I hope you'll feel better and be better soon. Keep on fighting okay. May Allah ease everything for you, for me, for us and for everyone who is struggling the same thing.
