When tense and confused, I need to realize I cannot force-feed thoughts, positive or negative, to my hurting emotions. It only serves to cause more anxiety and depression. I must be accepting of my thoughts and feelings - be able to admit being unable to change them all at once or on my own. They may not make sense at the time and may contradict what I believe. I need to accept them with gentleness and compassion.
Help me accept that I am hurting. Help me to be gentle with myself and to reach out.
Part of growth is realizing that hurt people, hurt people. I will apply this to myself.
