So often we find out the things people are dealing with after a tragedy. The common remark from people close to a situation is "I had no idea that was going on". It is so sad to realize that with billions of people on this earth that people still suffer in silence. People from youth to seasoned adults choose to keep their pain and sorrow hidden and harbored. There could be several reasons why we suffer in silence. As youth, it is often the belief that no one will believe me. As adults we may feel as though we brought the situation on ourselves due to our choices. The most despairing thought is that no one cares or nothing will change anyway. People subscribe to the belief that what goes on in the house, stays in the house causing those inside the house to suffer in silence, behind closed doors and covered windows. It is human nature to only want people to know the good we do and hide our faults and demons. If your faults are causing physical or emotional harm to others, don't hide them and don't expect others to hide them, GET HELP!
Your happiness matters. Your safety matters. Your life matters. Your well being matters. Your physical well being, your emotional well being, your mental well being....it matters. Don't suffer in silence to protect image, titles, positions, egos, reputations. Not yours and not theirs. If you are hurting, tell someone that you are hurting. If you are being hurt, tell someone. Don't continue to suffer in silence.
Love Y'all!!!
