Going through a hard time. Confidence? Help?

Question

It feels like everything is falling apart. I feel really stressed out and upset, Its like every time things seem to get better another thing just hits you like a train. Family problems, Friends..life..all of it. And my best friend Recently leaving for the Navy just kind of topped it all.

Ive been having a lot of bad dreams latly too, I sometimes wake up shaking or something.

What Im getting at though, is does anyone else feel like this? What do you do to get your mind off it.

and Any ideas to help my nightmares going away?

Some words of confidence and good vibes would really help right now, Im going through a really hard time, and I just wanted to hear some kind words.

Answer 1

Although youre goin thru a rough time, remember that someone else out there is goin thru worse.  I dealt w/ worse than what youre goin thru back in h.s. and I learned why.  I dealt w/ crazy family problems, parents goin to jail, parents physically fighting, I even fist fought my own dad.  Each one of my good friends back-stabbed me and 2 of my friends died (1 in an accident and 1 was stabbed to death).  Yah pretty horrific.  Just understand that you are going thru this because you are destined for happiness.  People who experience a true low point in life, experience a way more higher happier point that those that go thru no bull**** in life.

Answer 2

i truly am sorry for you, but you just have to move on with everything and i'm sure you already know that

to get my mind off things like that, i call for arrangements and get-togethers with friends and talk to people

i play ping-pong, pool, basketball, tennis, baseball, football, swim, and chill with anybody- i watch tv and play videogames or just sleep

and with your sleeping problem, everybody gets it

there probably are dream experts who know why bad dreams happen constantly even when you are having a pleasant life

but i suggest you think of good things before falling asleep, or watching your favorite tv show like i do before falling asleep

and if they continue, just convince yourself that everything is fake and a dream- simply just lie down on the floor while in the dream and close your eyes

makes me wake up all the time- and when you're awake have a cold cup of water downstairs :) good luck baby
