What strategies do you use to cope with negative feelings?

Daily writing prompt
What strategies do you use to cope with negative feelings?

When I am in a down or negative mood, I play music. I try to get myself out of my funk by dancing and singing. I also try to write out my feelings or watch TV shows to take my mind off of things.

A nice hot shower helps, of course, with music! Just some simple things to get me through those bad days. It can be peaceful at times.

Blessings and Love!

Hiding..

In the faint shadows, where the sun’s rays fade

I hide my struggles, my pains, and my tears

In the twilight’s shade

Beneath the surface, where no light can seep

Lies a world of secrets. In silence, they creep

By day, I wear a mask of calm and grace

A smile so bright, no trace of inner space

But within my heart, a tempest swirls and roars

A storm is unseen behind closed doors

Each step I take, a dance upon the wire

Balancing my fears, a tightrope of desire

In the mirror’s gaze, I see a face so strong

Yet profound inside, I know where I belong

In the night, when stars begin to gleam

I find solace in my hidden dream

In the darkness, my soul can be

A whispered truth, a silent plea

I carry on, with courage undefined

Hiding my struggles in the corners of my mind

In this journey, I will find my way

And in the light, I’ll stand one day

-Hiding-

I Admit!

I Admit that I am a person who is so stuck in my ways

I Admit that my attitude is not the best, I rage from time to time (SIGH)

I Admit that I can be a little hard to deal with and sometimes need reassurance that I’m still wanted and loved

I Admit that I have a tough time letting go

I Admit that it is hard to let my guard down and for me to fully be open

I Admit that I am afraid to love, to be vulnerable with someone

I Admit that it will be hard to not be in control all the time, when I feel the need to want to control everything

I Admit that I can be toxic in a way when I shut down and shut off from the world. I do not want to be bothered with anything or anybody. I really would not talk to anyone for days. I feel its toxic because I should just address shit instead of running a away and shutting down my emotions (BIG TRUTH)

I Admit that I have major trust issues and sometimes I just don’t believe what a person says sometimes

I Admit that it would be hard to let a man come into my life and take lead, also ADMIT this is something I will definitely work on

I Admit that when I do love someone, I LOVE HARD and care way too much

I Admit that when I find REAL LOVE I would be willing to make changes that I need to make for that right one

I Admit that I do not have all my shit together

I Admit that I feel like grief has taking over my life

I Admit that I get lost in my head, replaying a lot from the past

I Admit I am trying and a work in progress, I am healing and indeed working on me

I Admit that I am willing to change things that serve no good in my life

I Admit guilt to things I cannot change

I Admit I am always me

I Admit my truths here and now, BARE it ALL

My truths are here, LAID OUT

How about you???? What do you ADMIT?

-I ADMIT-

Conflict.

In a town where whispers fueled the air

Lived a soul, both fair and rare

A heart that sought to evade the fray

Choosing instead a peaceful way

This soul, amidst clamor and din

Found strength in silence, power within

Conflict arose, as it always will

Yet, they chose a path, steady and still

“Let’s talk,” they’d say with a gentle smile

“Find common ground, walk the extra mile.”

Their words, like seeds in fertile ground

Grew into solutions, profound

Enemies turned allies in their wake

Realizing there’s more at stake

In a world eager to divide and fight

They stood as a beacon of conciliating light

The tale of their journey, far and wide

Becomes a guide, a peaceful tide

For in avoiding conflict, they did not flee

But faced it with grace for all to see!

-Conflict-

Slipping

S-Struggle, Spiteful, Stuck
L- Lousy, Losing
I-Impatient
P- Paranoid
P- Poisonous, Pain
I-Incomplete, Imperfect, Insane
N- Numb
G- Gone, Grumpy

Feeling stuck in life, times I want to be spiteful due to my struggles
Slipping
Sometimes I feel like a lousy person who is losing at life
Slipping
So impatient with myself, with everything
Slipping
I’m on edge, constant guard up, and paranoid
Slipping
Been poisoned with hate, hurt, grief, and pain, sometimes the pain is too much to deal with
Slipping
This imperfect self, feeling lost and incomplete. Insane with my thoughts
Slipping
She is numb to it all. It is what it is
Slipping
Lately been grumpy, with no feelings. Drugging and drinking, I’m gone
Damn
I’m
Slipping…..

Blessings and Love!
