But here’s the good news: you don’t have to have it all…

Coping with Uncertainty: Youth Mental Health in a Changing World | Solh Wellness
Young people nowadays experience unprecedented amounts of uncertainty as a result of our society's fast and continual transformation. Young people today struggle with a never-ending list of concerns, from technical breakthroughs to political and social upheavals. This article examines how uncertainty affects young people's mental health and offers some recommendations for overcoming these difficulties.

Understanding the Impact of Uncertainty on Youth Mental Health
1. Increased Stress: Young individuals typically experience higher levels of stress due to uncertainty. Concern, tension, or trouble concentrating are symptoms of an extreme dread of the unknown.
2. Poor Self-Image: Uncertainty can encourage self-doubt and a poor view of oneself. Young people may feel inferior to their classmates, which lowers self-esteem and raises the likelihood that they may experience mental health problems.
3. Loss of Control: Young people may experience a loss of control over their lives when faced with uncertainty. The probability of developing mental health conditions like depression is increased by this loss of control, which can further heighten feelings of powerlessness.
Tips for Coping with Uncertainty
1. Keep a Support System in Place: Surround oneself with sympathetic friends, relatives, or mentors who can offer a different viewpoint. Speaking your feelings and thoughts to close friends and family members can be calming and consoling.
2. Seek Professional Assistance: Don't be hesitant to seek professional assistance if uncertainty begins to negatively affect your mental health. To assist people cope with uncertainty and the difficulties that come with it, mental health professionals can offer advice, support, and coping mechanisms.
3. Put Yourself First: Give priority to your own wellness. Engage in relaxing and enjoyable hobbies for a while. This can mean learning a new activity, becoming active, reading, or engaging in mindfulness and meditation exercises.
4. Concentrate on What You Can Control: Pay attention to the areas of your life that you can control rather than dwelling over the parts you cannot. Setting and reaching personal goals or trying to hone abilities that will enable you to successfully handle uncertain situations could be examples of this.
5. Educate Yourself: To help you understand how your environment is changing, keep up with news, trends, and culture. If you are well-informed, you can make decisions with confidence and adjust to changing conditions.
6. Set Realistic Goals: Steer clear of peer comparison and harbouring exaggerated aspirations for the future. Keep in mind that everyone's life journey is different, so it's crucial to concentrate on your own individual development.
7. Develop Resilience: Increasing your capacity to recover from setbacks and adjust to change entails developing resilience. Develop a positive outlook, take lessons from your mistakes, and see obstacles as opportunities for growth.
8. Socialise: Join organisations and activities that share your interests and values. Having a strong sense of community and support from people who share your values can be helpful through difficult times.
ConclusionThe capacity to manage uncertainty is a crucial skill that has a substantial impact on young people's mental health. Young people may be better able to flourish in a rapidly changing society if they are aware of the implications of uncertainty and have coping mechanisms at their disposal. Maintain a strong network of friends and family, put yourself first, concentrate on what you can control, educate yourself, make reasonable goals, practise resilience, and maintain your social ties. One can improve their capacity for resilience, happiness, and all-around wellness by viewing uncertainty as a potential for growth.

Holy fucking shit....
That scene between Milchick and Natalie after the board concludes the call.
Speaking a 1000 words just with their expressions. My jaw is literally on the floor.
Using PoC as meager mouthpiece to earn brownie points for being inclusive while giving them no real power. Just to push their agenda so they can cast a wider net.
I'll be watching this scene 187383987 times. THANK YOU.
#severance#severance spoilers#seth milchick#the uncertainty in her eyes#the you SEEING THIS BULLSHIT#and she being like YEAH I KNOW JUST...COPE???#WOW#CINEMA!!!!!!#THEY ABOUT TO CRY#such a fucking offensive 'gesture' they feel will be appreciated....

cult leader sunday come back i miss you
#half joking#i miss sunday having his personality but i don’t want him to suffer :((#his interactions with herta give me tentative hope that he is Still In There#obviously he can become better and grow into a better version of himself and i LOVE that idea#but his traumatic past doesn’t have to be sanitized#his past doesn’t define him—he can be who he chooses to be—but his past does impact him just as it does with all of us#(as does his mental illness like hi yes ocpd doesn’t just *go away* after you decide to try and deal with uncertainty)#my past doesn’t define me—i don’t have to use those maladaptive coping mechanisms anymore; i can choose not to be an addict like my parents;#i can choose and fight to be the best version of *me*—but that doesn’t mean my past doesn’t inform the way i might react to certain things#etc etc etc#hopefully that makes sense i just woke up hehe#maybe i’m being unfair since there’s obviously still more to his story that we have to see#but i hope that sunday gets to keep certain flaws and quirks that’s all i’m saying :(#clari chatters

tomorrow is babies first pride.... ah im so nervous!
#(baby has been out in some capacity for 12 years at this point)#nyxtalks#im nervous about the whole. deal but also just. some information has been more of a pain to find than it should have been#and i dont know what to expect and i dont even really have full control over my own actions which is usually my coping mechanism#so im starting to get anxiety jitters#itd be way less bad if i knew exactly what my plan was. how i was getting there. where to go. etc but thats not clear#so i cant even comfort myself with that exact plan to deal with crowds and uncertainty about even being there#(and a fresh dose of not NB enough! yay)#the only thing i can genuinely control is what i wear and im not sure ive made good choices with that#i mean its cute but very out of my comfort zone and perhaps. setting myself up to overheat#augh

thought that some of y’all who are constantly trying to find people similar to them would enjoy the fact that you may feel better with finding medical statements of your experience being documented and acknowledged.
sorry if it’s a bit unclear in how I wrote but.. when you’re looking through tags and media and what not,, you’re looking for others to define what you also feel so you can point it out and say “yeah, me too! That’s what I’ve been trying to say and comprehend!” Or what to do about it Or why it happens, but really, looking through certain medical lists and information, such as some app with a bunch of psychological or physical stuff (sites probably do exist but I just don’t know any to point out right now, please reply if you have any) but.. so….
If you’re confused about your mind and want recognition that you’re not making it up, find a medical statement and study on what it is that’s happening in that mind and body of yours. Ya hear!?

do not like having feelings for another person even if it's so completely impossible for us to even meet. I should feel like a person pretending to pray beneath a stained-glass window of an angel representing the men I love, not hoping to ever touch.
#I can see how I used to mistake a less intense feeling for romantic attraction. thankfully I now know better#but this is just. if I could feel nothing at all.#it's not even a matter of the fact that I'm deeply uncomfortable with intimacy thanks to. literally everything#too autistic. sa'd. neglected. did not get socialised enough. just in general being traumatised.#it's just. I don't want to be capable of feeling like this. even if I could be there physically with the person it's directed toward#I don't want it.#I think the distance and the uncertainty of not knowing if they'd even like you. yet alone love you. back worsens it beyond coping

14.25 hours until anaesthesia, not looking forward to it whatsoever. at least still having to do cleaning in preparation is keeping the panic somewhat at bay, but fuck if I'm not anxious as hell
#it's not even the anaesthesia that's the scariest. just the thought of how they're supposed to get to those teeth and get them out#when I can barely reach there with my toothbrush to keep them clean. my jaw is gonna be fucked up after this I just know it#fuck#okay. no use worrying about it. the alternative is calling it off and that's not happening#I know I'll cope with the pain afterwards. I always do. pain is an old friend. and it's not like I eat that much anyway#the before is the issue. the uncertainty and the knowing what's coming#I think it's sth we're not meant to experience as animals. which we still are at our core#nature doesn't hand a tiger or a monkey a date and time when they'll have a part of themselves removed#either it happens slowly or right away or not at all. there's no set date ever#so I doubt our brains are at all equipped to handle that#(or at least that's what I tell myself to make myself feel better)

Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow. Maybe not this week, this month, this season, or this year. Maybe not for a very long time. Maybe it's going to take a lot of work and effort on your part. But eventually, you will be okay.
