when you feel like your heart is breaking and the world caving in around your head?

I cry, I try to laugh, I tell someone whats bothering me, I try to stay busy, and mostly I keep breathing and going on, each minute, each hour, each day, each week that goes by it gets alittle easier.
I'm sorry that something is troubling you Lady Sam. I know I don't know you, but I will listen if you need someone.
 
Ok, this probally only works for me, but here's what I do.

I pack up the car, go to the airport, pay the ground staff, pay the pilot, get in, go to 30,000 ft. Strap on the oxygen mask, lower the tail ramp, and step out.

As I speed to the ground I pass thru cloud layers of rain, patches of pure open sky and just fall. The only sound I hear is my breathing, the wind dies away, and soon all I hear is my heart beat racing.

At less then a 1000 ft I pull my drone chute, slow down and then pull the main. As I steer my risers and float to the ground I feel totally in control. I feel alive, so completely back to the basics. I realise my heart is still beating, my world didn't end and I am alive. Really really alive.

At that point I realise that my heart will heal, I will go on. And if it happens again, and I feel that badly. I just pack up the car, go to the airport, pay the ground staff.......

Its all just how we learn to take on the things in life that wear us down, and how we conquer them.


Again, this is just me.

Hope you feel better.

Thank you, oddly enough I understood all that. And I must say....you have a very intense stress reliever..

Thank you lilrosie, I appreciate the offer. I've done the crying and a bit of laughing, and I'm trying to keep going. Just posting helped a bit
 
I have a sign on my bedroom door that says :

Warning, adrenaline junkie resides with in.

I had a hundred, oh lets just say, chaotic experiences in the Army and my life has changed a bit high school. I tend to "push the envelope" now and then just to see what happens.

But then, I am a father too, and also just your average neighbor, trying to help raise his kid, working for a living and trying to figure out this great mystery we call life.

And you know what? I hope I never do figure it out. The funs in living, not just existing.

Heh heh, it is kinda intense huh?


And hey, if nothing else works for ya, I got an empty shoulder to lean or cry on, and a pretty good ear for just listening if you need it.
 
I think being a parent is a lot of adrenaline in and of itself. Being responsible for another person. Takes guts.

And most army/air force guys I know are adrenaline junkies too :)

Thanks for the offer of an ear, I may take you up.
 

Hi Lady Sam
is very hard love
you think the tears will never stop
but they do,although the sadness never goes
Laughing helps as you know
also
try to remember the good times
those special moments ,that no one can ever take from you
Talk, as you are now
talking is good
find a friendly ear
pour out your emotion,
yes, it will hurt
but believe me love
it helps
I know
have been there
wishing you well love
((((((((((((((Lady Sam)))))))))))))

roses for you:rose: :rose: :rose: :rose:
 
i write. (that seems to be my answer to everything...writing) but, i do. i write a story. i write in my journal. i just write. and, i turn on music that is the complete opposite of how i'm feeling...that's usually what i do...now last night when i was in near tears from something similar to heartbreak, i didn't do anything but wallow in the pain...and thank goodness i woke up in a whole different mood this morning.

either way, i feel for you Lady, and will keep you in my thoughts...~smile~

I like to crank up my amp plug in my guitar and listen to it gently weep ..Better than listening to myself weep...:)
 
((((Sami girl))))) I know you are hurting and I really am not so good on advice any more. My own life tends to leave me full of stress and craziness. I know how you feel. Been there so many times. And oddly enough, despite the very happy times right now in my life..I am being slammed with more grievences than I care to have (by my soon to be ex).

But for me, I just curl up with a blanket and cry most of the time. Music sometimes helps me escape. But not too much helps when your heart feels so heavy like yours does. Just remember to dream big, hope enough and love deeply. :rose: :rose: :rose:
 
Lady Sam....I'm so sorry the world seems so bleak to you right now. You are always so up. I'm here if you need to talk. Just a PM away....don't forget that.

When my heart is heavy and breaking...I try to sleep my life away. I know that isn't good. But at least I can't feel the pain then. After awhile of that, I find a friend and unload. That really helps me.

Love you girlie....

Thank you all, I talked to a few friends and I'm going to sit back and be there as I always have been. I can't stop loving him just like that. I'll just offer my quiet support and be there when things have settled down for him.
