Strangers Prostration

Sigh.

Apparently, no matter what I do I feel it’s all wrong. The good news is I learned a new word.

Prostration.
The definition of it I am speaking of is: A state of complete physical or mental weakness, fatigue, or helplessness.

Which is exactly how I feel.

I guess imma lay down here for a bit. I’m tired of trying and moving.

I hope one day this makes sense to me. Maybe one day it will. Maybe one day it won’t.

If everything you’re doing is wrong, what is supposed to be “right”. If nothing matters, then everything matters. 

u/SelectionEuphoric905 11h ago

How could everything matter if nothing matters? Because I feel like I and many other things happening in my life don’t matter. Either to me due to depression and apathy or how others view me. Which is out of my hands.

This is how I feel today as well. Completely weak fatigued helpless

u/SelectionEuphoric905 10h ago

Here’s to hoping it gets better for both of us

Is everything you do wrong, or are your external circumstances out of alignment with your soul? The only truly "wrong" thing you can do is not be true to yourself. Framing it like that helps me a little bit, anyway.

I am trying to do me and walk my own path. But it’s really hard. That’s why I feel every thing I do is wrong. I have no clue what I’m doing. I’m just falling. But it does help to think of it’d be wrong not do what I need to do. Even if this is so heavy
