      Dr Mel Gill,
      Your inspiring talks will surely bring out many Rain Makers from their old tribes & dense forests to explore new possible deserts, where their dance will succeed to bring much needed rains.
      Many Thanks to You for being there to motivate us with your single-handed Enthusiasm.
      Be Always Happy
      Be Blessed
      Lots LoVE

    Ironically, I lived a life that centered on the feelings of others. Instead of expressing my feelings frankly, I thought I had to live a happy life that would require suppressing my feelings to avoid making problems.
    At the same time, I firmly believed that my inner anxiety or nervousness should not be revealed. I tried to think positively or forced a smile on my face, hiding my unease and pretending not to know.
    Some feelings discomforted me, which I knew I should not be feeling, yet whenever those feelings arose, I would deny myself and suffer.
    I thought this was the right way, but reality told me the contrary. I became more vulnerable. I started to use the "Intended mindfulness playlist' and got much better. It really works 🙂

  • @manifestationwithsami

    You CANNOT solve the problem if you are still fighting against it.
    If you are still struggling with the issue that dejected you or the problem that stuck in your life, let it go. Do not fight against it. Sometimes accepting and letting go can give you the highest peace.
    Isn’t?
    Some problems are not solvable by our power; they are out of our control. Fighting against them destroys our mindset and energy level.
    Let it go and take a breath

      If you learned something from your failures then it wasn't a waste of time - it was an expensive lesson. They taught us in college that the person who fails and stops trying is the only failure.
      Look for the lesson and change your angle of attack.

    Talking about this is extremely important! Schizophrenia and Bipolar disorders are not understood very well by doctors, much less the general public. I congratulate you for having the confidence and determination to inform people of these disorders and the fact that you are functional. Keep it up, and good luck!
