:(

The feeling of having a giant rock ripping your heart to shit as the weight crushes you into the water. You are drowning while being crushed at the same time. You are helpless and the more you struggle the more it hurts. This is what it feels like to never feel good enough. This is what it feels like when nothing you ever, ever do is right. This is what it feels like... Impending death.

Hey Daughter,

I wrote a poem once that reflects how I think you are feeling lately. Tell if this fits, oh, and I offer the solution at the end that has so far worked for me....

"No Other Way"

No Other Way

I’ve been so lost and wandering
Blinded by a pitch black pollution
I’d try every path I could find
But never seemed to find a solution

I was blind for not seeking the light
So stumbling along I would feel
The pain in my heart felt so heavy
That I missed taking hold of the steel

I looked for the hand that I wanted
But that wouldn’t happen I could tell
For I should have been looking to God
And the healing waters of his well

For straight is the path and the way
And the rod, it is truth to hang on
But if you let go in the storms
Then soon all you hoped may be gone

Hold tight to the iron rod of truth
Letting go can cost you your soul
And if you withstand Satan’s fury
With the Lord your joy can be full

There is no other way…….
