Reaching out

[MissAnna]

Good morning all you amazing wonderful beautiful people on here!

How have you all been? Has anyone had any new adventures lately?

I wanted to come on here and make a topic  about reaching out for help.

So many times in our lives we have came to a place where we wish we could really say what was on our mind, but instead we just agree with the other person to pacify them.

Yes there are times where we have not so nice thoughts about a person and it's a good thing we keep those comments to ourselves (well sometimes).

But when someone is belittling you, calling you names, pulling you down, making you feel bad then those are the times where it's okay to say please stop.

It's okay to say you're being hurtful, that hurts my feelings, please don't talk to me that way. All of these sayings are still kind and respectful without having to be hateful (like I am to people who call others names).

You don't have to take their cruelty, you don't have to take their bitterness, you don't have to take their hatred towards you. 

You are allowed to stand up for yourself, yes I do realize this takes time to do, and sometimes they can make us feel so small where we feel powerless.

It's only an act remember that, it's all an act to keep you in that mind frame, because you have so much power within yourself. They know this, they see this and they fear this. Because you can say no, you can tell them enough is enough. 

So please if feel trapped or someone is hurting you please reach out to someone. Remember it's okay to reach for help and have someone help you. 

And please if you are being hurt physically please reach out to someone. I promise there are so many people all around you who are willing to help you. 

If  you are on this forum and someone is hurting you in anyway, report them to @shadowrider or @PigtailPrincess both of these people are phenomenal and will listen to you. 

You are all so wonderful and I'm so extremely proud of you all 

Until we meet again remember you matter, you are loved and you are worthy of being loved ❤️

It's incredibly heartening to see someone proactively reaching out and reminding everyone that they are not alone.

Your words are a powerful reminder that it's okay to set boundaries and to ask for help when we need it.
