Thoughts Overwhelming

 So many thoughts today going on in my head. They are overwhelming at times. I don't know what to do about them. They're just there doing their thing without a reason or response to my query. I wish I had the ability to get rid of these thoughts, feelings, and emotions. But I don't know how to do that. They swarm in without letting me breathe. I can say things would be better, but would they really? I'm not so sure about that. Many times, in this life, I am confused about what to think about it all. I don't think there is an easy answer for any of it though, so I continue onward thinking things will just get better. Call me messed up, call me whatever you will. I know there are problems with me. There's no secret to that. It's not some kind of thing I tend to hide.

Wishing one was dead isn't to be taken lightly. I know that. Yet it doesn't stop me from wishing that were the case. Death sounds like a nice escape from it all. Just to be on the other side with family. I wish I could do something like that. It simply would be nice, I think.

I freeze when thinking sometimes. There doesn't seem to be a point to any of it though. I wish I had an idea of what to do about it. I mean I almost completely shut down when this happens. Not a thought enters my mind about what's going on. Now this can be nice at times, other times it can be downright infuriating. When I want to think about something I need to be able to think about it. Not wait for my mind to play catch up.

I want to die
there's nothing left
for me to realize
it's all a mess
if only I could move on
into that great unknown
to a beyond which is new
to some distant star
everything comes to an end
I would think at some point
nothing lasts forever
and that's a shame

If I had the ability to figure this life out, I would by now. But I can't so I won't even try. There's no point in trying to figure everything that's wrong with me out at this time and point in life. Whatever happens to this life will happen. I have no say in how it will go or end up. Is there a point to any of it? I do not know.

Suicidal Ideation

 Over the years I've had to deal with suicidal ideation. Those are thoughts of being dead, some more extreme than others. It causes issues for me a lot of the time. It's not an easy thing to talk about at all. Here's what it is: Suicidal ideation ( suicidal thoughts )  are thoughts or ideas centered around death or suicide . Experiencing suicidal ideation doesn’t mean you’re going to kill yourself, but it can be a warning sign.

An Opposition In All Things

Long has been the story told about how there must be an opposition in all things. From the pre-existence there was Satan, Lucifer the Son of the Morning. In the beginning we were with God in his presence. We learned all we could while there. Until the moment we couldn’t progress any more, we were unable to become like God. So, we were given the opportunity to come to Earth to gain a body. A Savior would be provided to atone for our sins enabling us to come back to the presence of God. The idea that an opposition must be in all things comes from 2nd Nephi: For it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things. If not so, my firstborn in the wilderness, righteousness could not be brought to pass, neither wickedness, neither holiness nor misery, neither good nor bad. Wherefore, all things must needs be a compound in one; wherefore, if it should be one body it must needs remain as dead, having no life neither death, nor corruption nor incorruption, happiness nor misery, neither...

Temptation Bible vs Book of Mormon

In the Bible in 1 Corinthians 10:13 we find: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able ; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. But what might seem as a contradiction is found in Alma 13:28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear , and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering; So, which is it? Either God tempts you to a point and stops, or you have to actively pray not to be tempted beyond that no return point. Which is it?
