“I don’t know what’s wrong with me that I feel so…depressed/anxious/sad/jealous/triggered/your-favorite-neurosis-goes-here.”
Have you ever felt that way?
Years and years ago we lived in smaller cities, and before that, smaller towns, smaller villages, smaller communities. And for better or for worse, everyone was always up in everyone’s business.
The “for better” part meant that people knew that other people went through hard times and watched them go through it. And it wasn’t such a unique and lonely experience.
Nowadays, we don’t talk so much. Many of us may not know our neighbors; we get off the metro during rush hour and see throngs of other humans – and yet we suspect that we are the only ones who feel this way. Surely, nobody else goes through this!
Which leads to: “What’s wrong with me that I feel this way?”
This question, however, is to pile suffering upon suffering. First, broken hearts hurt. Depression hurts. Anxiety hurts. To approach this pain with “What’s wrong with me that I’m feeling this pain?” is a way to add a little self aggression to the equation: “Something is wrong with me that I’m feeling this hurt” which just entangles things and complicates them. – and deverts the needed energy for healing.
What if there was nothing wrong with you for having a broken heart?
What if you could hold your heart, without the complication of thinking that there’s something fundamentally broken, something fundamentally wrong with you? What if you could hold your broken heart or depression or anxiety with a sense of kindness, and simply say “How can I heal my broken heart/depression/anxiety?”
That’s much more straightforward, and you’ll have much more energy to do that. It’s because you’re a human being that you feel this hurt; and it’s also because you’re a human being, that you can bring healing to that hurt.
