When you sink to the bottom, you will not be understood by those who have not been there.

Problems in human life They don't just show up. Deciding and living them, you get invaluable life experience. Except it's so simple in words. And when it comes to practice, sometimes you have to sink to the bottom, mired in the abyss of difficulties.



Not all people can easily overcome them, and this is absolutely normal. Psychologist and writer from the network Vasilisa Savitskaya wrote touching lines on this occasion, which found a response in our editorial office. We invite you to speculate on this topic!

When you sink to the bottom, those who have not been there can not understand you. You're just like them. Your hands move, your legs walk, your head talks. You do something: go to work or go to the store. Outwardly, you're not damaged, so it's all humming. But you're down! And you're sick.

You say it to someone standing next to you, but they don't understand you. In response, you hear different things: delusional and real, funny and sad, invigorating and not very, but it all goes by. Because you know everything you said! There's nothing you can do. Yesterday I could, but today I can't!



You feel bad, and you choke on this state, piled on you out of nowhere, floundering and drowning in it more and more. It consumes you, covering your head. Sometimes you don’t have enough strength to take a single breath. It seems that the world around you has frozen, faded, lost all shades, highlights and shadows.

You are like a shadow, shuffling from side to side. You shy away from yourself. You never knew yourself that way. The reality you are filled with is empty! Your soul is clutched in the grip of torments that plague it, twisting, tearing, not hearing groans and requests.

Yes, this condition is absorbing. It envelops, extending its ugly twisted fingers to you, which catch your nerves. Holds tight. The worst part is that it takes away all your desires. Clean up. And you don't want anything, nothing turns you on, doesn't turn you on.



You rush in search of a way out, but the body is a closed object from which there is no way out. And then you start wanting to disappear with your body. You cannot tolerate this pain and think about it more often, driving away thoughts from the last strength. But it's getting less and less...

Those who haven't been to the bottom won't understand you. They'll keep saying things, but you're not you anymore, and you can't hear them from your closed body, which has only pain. It's exhausting. It's useless to explain. You can endlessly scream, cry, denounce, but you will hear the most banal phrase: “Everything will be fine!”



And this is the most cruel, impregnated phrase! When will it be? Tomorrow at five o'clock in the evening or in the year of the thirty-second of July? Maybe in the next life? You feel bad right now. Right now, you're missing the oxygen you need. But none of them understand when you say you have nothing to breathe with your mouth. Watching, crumpling, stewing. Someone spreads his hands, and someone twists his temple.



But you have a way out! Having gathered all the strength, tied nerves into knots, clutched teeth to grind, set yourself a goal. Anybody! Small or big, real and not very, delusional or absurd, but a goal. Somewhere in front of you, on your way, make yourself want what you can go for, crawl, limp to get out of the shackles of apathy. Let's go!

Sometimes problems in life lead to serious disorders and mental illnesses. Not everyone can cope with them alone. In such moments, it is very important to enlist the support of family and friends and move to your recovery in small steps.



If you see that something is wrong with someone close to you, never question the difficulties they have faced. Yeah, you might think they're nothing. However, each of us perceives reality differently. Let’s take a closer look at other people’s problems!
