I'm Not Fine.

in SciFi Multiverse2 days ago (edited)

This is a very very deep one, because a lot of us are a victim of this, so I believe not only I will have something to say, but a host of others will. While we pretend to be fine and alright there are whole lot of things that we do, we smile at times when we are weeping inside, w laugh when we are grieving in there, we say it is okay, but deep down.. we know nothing is okay. A lot of us have mastered that act so much, you won't even know we are the opposite of what you're assuming because we don't look like what we are going through.

Sometimes ago, I was being faced with something, ien that rendered me helpless, it was a trying time for me. And most people did not even know. One day, I was having a deep conversation with someone who needed some sort of motivation and encouragement and I decided to share some parts of my life with him. Guess what he said after I was done.. he sighed and said, "you don't look like it, sir."

And that's just the truth. We face things and act like all is well. That night, I couldn't sleep. Because I know deep down in me that I'm not fine.. both physically, mentally and emotionally... it's affecting me all-rounder. I was only trying to cope and look fine to everyone, but deep down I was drowning.

But then, I've been doing my best to talk things out, even though its not that easy, especially for a guy. There's this mentality that men shouldn't act weak, be vulnerable and such, but then we are humans too... I don't just talk anyhow or to anyone, I make sure its someone matured enough to know that regardless of gender and all, I am human.

And in all honesty, I'm not fine. No need to hide or pretend about it, I am not. Aside that the country itself is not encouraging, a lot of things are not falling into place, and its getting to mess with my peace.

So, to everyone who come across this, pretending to be good and alright will only make you look good on the surface and maybe protect your image, but in there it will mess with your peace. Best thing is for us to be honest with ourselves, there's no need covering up what we definitely need help about. If it doesn't look like it, don't say it is....

Honestly, who even start with this word that men shouldn't show weakness? We are all humans and we need to behave as humans. Just because you're a guy doesn't mean you can show your weakness or ask for help. People have this mindset that only women can show weakness but what about men that are facing a lot and need people? Truth is, many people are facing a lot but just using smiles to hide their pains and problem. Because some people are laughing doesn't mean everything is good for the them. Some people doesn't have a choice than to hide their pain because there's no one to run to or share their pain.

But I will say you should take it easy and never overthink because thinking too much can cause another thing in the body which is not a good idea. Just look for someone you trust and comfortable with and share your pain because carrying it alone is not a good thing. And always do something that will bring smiles to your face and make you think less.

Smiles...
That's how most people see it.
They expect that we be strong and take it all in while not showing any form of.. uno weakness.

But we are humans too. It's just the world we live in.
See a man crying and weeping today and the first thing you tell him is.."haba, na man you be o." Meaning he's not expected to cry or feel bad, and even if he will, he shouldn't do so in the open unless he will be see as less of a man... But then, it is well.

It's alright Mama. I will be fine. We will all be fine. Thanks for taking your time to read through and for your understanding too

Very well appreciated.

There are a lot of smiling face out there but many are just faking it, the economy is crumbling and it has great effect of people's finances, but what can we do but to keep hoping things will get better.... Trust in the process... I believe your present is far better than your past..

Yea, what can we do? A very simple but deep question.
We just have to keep hoping, praying and work towards being Better.

Thanks a lot for stopping by.
