Do Something
Lately, I have been feeling down. I am still scared for my future yet I know that I will make it through this. I have learned the power of my thoughts and letting darkness in. I was so caught up in my future that I let it take over my life with anxiety and worry. What if I made the wrong decision? What if my life turned out that I would be miserable? What if I was going to be the single the rest of my life? What if I didn't get into graduate school? My life is full of options and at first that was a positive thing. I could do whatever I wanted with all of my open doors.
A turn came when open doors scared me. Open doors became closed doors. Faith became fear. Light became darkness. I felt a contrast in my life as my thoughts were changing. I started closing up and not letting other people know until one day I felt like I couldn't function when I was alone. In public, I was happy but then when I was alone I felt this empty void where I felt my future was full of blackness. It was a horrible feeling of blackness. I have never felt fear at this capacity before.
This is my advice for people who have fear and anxiety in the future. I still have some fear but somehow I know everything will work out in the end. I still need to develop more faith yet I feel like there is more light in my life.
1. Pray. Even if you feel like nothing is happening, keep praying.
2. Exercise.
3. Talk to People. Tell them your feelings. Don't let them build up inside as you feel worse and worse.
4. Serve. Do something for someone else. You will find joy and answers through others. Although you may just want to cry and dig your own hole, get outside of your house.
5. Cry when you want. Cry and get it out until you feel like you will be fine.
6. Write. Write in your Journal.
7. Read your scriptures. There are answers waiting for you to find them. Just look and search around.
8. Sleep Well. Get your body's rest so you will be refreshed each morning.
9. If you need a break from people to just clam yourself down. Take a break.
10. Recognize that fear is normal. I felt like I was the only one who was fearful for my future. You are not abnormal. Just know that you can control your capacity of fear. Write down your thoughts and then write down thoughts you want to have. When a bad thoughts come, then change them to the positive ones you want to have.
These are my suggestions. I don't know if it will help anyone. But, all of these helped me in someway. I know that everything will work out for now. My objective today and until I find out If I am accepted to transfer is just to enjoy life. Wait until the moment where I have to make the decision instead of fretting around like a sad girl. It is not the funnest thing to do. Trust me from my experience.
