You ask is knowing whats inside myself give me peace and rest?
Well....Put it this way.If I don~t know what I`m dealing
with(issues,emotions)how can I find relief for them?I can`t.Finding out how to
resolve them and letting them go,along with faith relationship to my God,support
from others(therapy)does provide me with solutions,and gives me all the things I
am really seeking.Purpose,hope,significance,serenity.I don`t feel centered
everyday,especially lately,as I have been in + out of the hospital due to bad
reactions to new medicines.That`s another story.
When I have no sense of me,I am whirling ,reacting to a-lot of other
things.So...to me it does matter.Being centered,ACCEPTING myself is very
powerful.And it takes a-lot of work.Other wise I stay in my illness,DIS-EASE.I
have been struggling.But that`s o.k.;I`m willing to keep striving for mental
health,reclaiming.Can`t reclaim what I don`t know.Hope this makes sense.
Take care
