non-problem

[crazyinca]

So I have this problem. The problem is that I don't have real problems. I don't have real insecurities. I don't have real demons to fight. No depressive tendencies. I am an incredibly balanced person. All the ones that I do have are very anecdotal, meaning they occur in the moment, and I deal with them in that moment, or in that day or in that week

what are you talking about?

if it's the therapist comment, I'm not talking about you

You sound a little in denial, We all have our demons to fight, or problems or insecurites, what makes everyone different is how we deal with them, some people take it a day at a time, others try to escape, some forget about them, or some people stress out so much that they kill themselves. Your problems differ from my problems and we each fight them our own way... But you gotta realize that you can try to be strong for two people but sometimes you can't get that back cuz some people aren't strong enough for one person, like my housemate. The true test of will and spirit is to be strong for everyone and ask for nothing but what they can give from everyone else. Everyone has different demons and are at different levels of fighting them (dog has broken leg, rent, MySpace guys are stalkers, my car is leaking oil, and my cash is running low), but we each deal with them differently, even if it means to stop and ask for help. We walk different paths at our own paces, but we all still reach the end.

See, obviously I've thought about whether or not I'm in denial, and I don't think I am. I mean, sure ok, then place me in the "day at a time" category. I just feel like a lot of people have trouble doing that and gaining perspective on their life, where I don't. And at the same time I'm not someone who will never ask for help... I dunno, maybe all I'm really trying saying is that I think I know myself and my ways a lot more than many other people, and this wasn't just my decision, many people have told me that.

Knowing who you are, how you think, and ahow you deal with everything is walking the path to enlightenment. Some people let there problems drag them down instead of picking them up and pushing through the hard times. It's great that you can say that you know yourself at that level, but realize that others don't, and sometimes can't. Ohh about the therapist, I thought it wasn't me but nothing is wrong with seeing a therapist, I had to convince myself that.

Of course there's nothing wrong with seeing a therapist, I'm glad he did, and I'm glad you are, I guess I was just surprised that my friend went to one cause he's the last person I would ever expect to do it or feel like he needed it.
