Skillet. Been years since I've seen them and they were even more amazing than I remember. An amazing thing about them is even if you aren't Christian you can appreciate their music, what they represent and how their songs hit you personally and save you from whatever you are going through. * * 馃幎"If you can hold the stars in place You can hold my heart the same Whenever I fall away Whenever I start to break So here I am, lifting up my heart If you can calm the raging sea You can calm the storm in me You're never too far away You never show up too late So here I am, lifting up my heart To the one who holds the stars..."馃幎 掳 掳 掳 #comatose #monster #stars #rebirth #invincible #sickofit #awakeandalive #resistance #whispersinthedark #backfromthedead #fallinginsidetheblack #rise #life #music #rock #musichelpsmelive #freesom #light #air #youarewithus #amazing #friends #oktosay #alwayskeepfighting #twlohr #skillet #skillet2017 #skilletsummer

FLATLINE: Series // 6. Anxiety by shawn caution
Via Flickr:
Story: "The medical condition, anxiety. My blood pressure rises. I begin to sweat, sometimes excessively. I feel so useless, I can't breath. I begin to panic, i'm scared.. ' Here it comes..a full blown attack. Feels sort of like what I imagine an asthma attack must feel like. I feel like i'm drowning sometimes. The weight of the world on my chest. Light-headedness, dizziness - sometimes debilitating dizziness. Have to pull the car over just to relax. There is no relaxing from this. Even on my best days I sometimes feel it coming. The pangs of shortness of breath, lurking in the background reminding me that at any moment no matter how good things seem an attack can come, out of no where for no reason.. I laughed out loud the first time someone told me 'anxiety' was a medical condition. I was in college when I first heard of the term 'anxiety' used. A friend of mine had it. He was having an anxiety attack before taking a test for finals. I remember laughing out loud "you mean..test-taking anxiety?" I asked. "The medical condition anxiety" he replied. He seemed to be hyperventilating. He was out of medication and his insurance coverage just ended just days before. "Can't you just...take deep breaths?" I asked him, "try a hot bath? Yoga?", "It doesn't work that way" he told me. What a pussy, I remember thinking. "It's all in your head, relax.." I tried to help him man up about it but my suggestions must have seems condescendingly ignorant. I see that now and wish I could go back in time and apologize to him. It's not in your mind, it's a medical condition and I now deal with it..nearly every day." - Anonymous

tumblr seems to be full of people with low self-esteem and people who are secretly hurting. you are all beautiful, your pain is beautiful. the world would not be the same without you. you were born to be you, and no one else could play that part.

All of my lovely followers and聽anyone聽else who happens to聽stumble聽upon this post; I'm here for you and in honor of suicide awareness week I will be writing love on my arm each day, for all of you. 聽This is for anyone out there who has ever struggled with depression. 聽 I'm here for you always. 聽My ask box is open, you can add me on skype, anything you like. 聽 I'm here for you, it all starts with one person willing enough to reach out. 聽Maybe you need to reach out for help, or maybe you need to reach out and help someone else. 聽Either way, I encourage you to write love on your arm to show that you are there for anyone that is struggling. 聽
I have struggled with it myself, so I just wanted to make sure you all know... If ever you need someone to talk to... I'm here for you.
I love you all <3
