Thanks so much for this post. I always think it was best to write down my thoughts and changes to be made, that way it registers in my mind. I’m still trying to figure out how to stick to my rules though, or a better way to perceive it so I can stick to it.

Good Day! I just wanted to ask a question of my own. Last year I decided to change my perspective on life simply by trying to enjoy certain things which intersected my path in life. In attempting to become a person I tried looking at bad situations differently as I contemplated the benefits rather than the bad outcomes. In doing this I woke up daily with a boastful attitude for another day in life, but it seemed that the more I wanted this change in me to flourish in order to make me a better person, the less respect from others I was beginning to get. I have obtained anger and stress from the times I refused to emotionally or physically express them, and now, a year later I am beginning to feel to worse in me as these emotional pains haunt me through day and night. When I wake up I feel contempt at what I see or whoever I hear in the kitchen. When no one is around I throw things and punch furniture that is on my way, and it is not until the night when everyone is asleep and everything is dark that I actually feel bad for these feelings of sorrow and actions of hatred which I have never experienced, only just recently. I don’t know if this attempt to better my life has helped me and I am coming to think that maybe not caring anymore will make matters better, I only wanted to change for the best and this side effect has changed me for the worse and this has led me to hate myself and feel left out. I wanted to gain suggestions as for what I should do from here on; I am currently struggling mentally as my loved ones remain unaware. I don’t want to change being the good person I have tried to be. I only want to know if this is a beginning stage of disruption towards becoming a better being, or in other words, is this normal, given my nature? If anyone can give advice as to what I should try to perfect, that would be great since obviously going through my routine has only been disastrous. Thanks to those who consider this.

I like these but there is a few things that u can’t forget like: never give up, listen to the critics they only make u better, avoid negative opions about yourself and around you, and don’t complain people have it worse then you. not saying you haven’t had it bad but there is worse.
