Today, a friend of mine, a good friend of mine, told me she was going to the psychologist. It is a thing that normally you do when things are not right. But what is a surprise for me is that she didn't look bad. I know many of you will say that you don't need to be bad to go there, but she really told me that she went because she was not feeling good at all.
That showed me how many people might not be feeling good and how many need the help of a professional without knowing. Even myself. I, for sure, would have gone to the psychologist when I was not good, it is just something that I didn't think about. And that's the scary part. Many people go to therapy when they feel overpassed by their thoughts and the world around them.
That brings me to the problem that the world is currently suffering, and how many people would benefit from a phycologist. Interesting enough, here in Spain, there is no plan to help people reach for help, not even a mention. Government says they are giving money to hospital, but nothing else. They might not be considering it because they do not know the issue, as I did not imagine my friend would be in the limit of seeking for help. Or they just do not care, but I prefer to think that is the first option that is happening.
We all have ups and downs, it is part of our nature, nature gave us the opportunity of having a conscious mind and that came for a cost. Watching the starry night and think of our own existence is a pleasure only given to us, and for many people that isn't a pleasure, as thinking about the meaning of life makes us see life with a perspective far away from our own, I don't mean a group perspective, I mean a perspective of ourselves with the universe. I am sure many people might think that their existence has no meaning, or things like these. For me this is like the feeling I talked about watching the stars but all the time. Of course this is just what I think and I am sure this might be totally wrong, but I want to help these people if I can, because we all have to enjoy this world.
I might have stept in very muddy waters in the previous paragraph, and I am not talking about that anymore because of that, but I want to leave it there, as it is my opinion and I am trying to put myself in other people's place.
As I said, many people need help, and not many people are getting that help they need, that is why I am offering myself to talk if someone needs to talk. This is a very anonimus place, you do not need to show your fave or say anything about you, so if you want to talk I think the comments section is good enough. You just can tell something good that happens to you or the first thing that comes to your mind. I will read all and answer the best way I can.
Thanks for coming here to read my little story, and if you have the chance to help someone, do it, even if it is just to recommend them to get professional help. We can try to make our world a little better.
