How Get Rid of The Pain

Hi Sid, Thanks, for bringing up a potentially difficult subject. Here, I'm glad to lean on the teachings of Abraham-Hicks. Sorry, I misspelled Hicks, last time. Might've made it hard to look up. :P First, let me congratulate you on your advice. :O) They would say that this is a good approach, because it gives you what you need most in those difficult moments: a sense of relief! It's silly, they've suggested many times, to expect to go from despair to bliss all in one step. And, while you could break down improvement into all the feelings in-between, the easiest way to actually make those shifts is just to ask yourself what thought brings relief just where you are. And a thought like, "Other people are suffering even more than I am now--" if that gives you relief--then milk it for all it's worth. However, Abraham take it further. (I know that sounds like bad English, but Abraham are a group entity.) They say that once you've risen from despair to something a little better, then apply your effort of focus to rise a little bit more--find further relief. Take breaks, as you need. But keep applying that healing attention to yourself. So, after you've gotten that reprieve, you can tell yourself something like, "At least I've made it this far. I'm a survivor." And after that's given you some relief, you can tell yourself, "There are things about this life that are worthwhile." And then, "At least, I'm in no immediate danger. I've got a roof over my head and have food and water." (Obviously, if that's not the case, you'll have to focus on something else.) And then, "There are qualities about myself that I feel proud of," and you can dwell on some. And then, "I know other people admire some of these qualities. In fact, I know some people out there like me & I like them." And then, "This really is a beautiful magical world I live in." And then, "I love this life." And then, "I can feel happy, right now. I can let myself feel happy. No one can stop me." No, that doesn't solve everything forever. But, having more experiences like this teaches us that we DO have some power over our lives. And--with practice--we can shift our view of where power lies in our lives. I definitely suggest looking up Abraham-Hicks on YouTube and checking out some of the videos floating around, there. Some of the stuff is so uplifting! Let your intuition guide you, Sid. :O) Sunshine & Blessings, Giovani

I agree that it's all about pain. Thinking about other people who are suffering helps sometimes but other times it can make you feel worse because you can fear more helpless seeing another person struggling. Sometimes it helps to look at people that are happy and see how they are able to be happy and full of life. But it's true, sometimes it does help to see people who are suffering more than you because it reminds you of what you do have.

i can understand what you mean... pain is a part of our lives and i totally agree with you that the only way to reduce our pain is to always think that there are still lots of unfortunate people out there... that way, we can always count our blessings and be thankful with whatever we have... take care and have a nice day...

thesids as a teen I attempted several times as the life since birth for me was so unbearable that I had no friends and family that could comfort me. But like you I have overcome my desires. Sometimes I feel that God allowed me to have to children so that I could be a stronger person. See I have always felt that I have no right to rid of my life as I have to kids who I need to look after. Absolutely no one that does not walk in my shoes would ever understand/understood my feelings of ending my life, as no words could have ever changed my feelings back then.
