When someone feels powerless in a world of chaos
When a person feels there is no
voice of reason present
When a person feels overwhelmed and
ready to self-combust…
A person will try to do something POWERFUL
to compensate for the feeling of POWERLESSNESS
the problem is that when you make an
impulsive and emotional attempt to change
the energy and odds stacked against you, unfortunately
you tend to make a powerful act of self-sabotage
When I was 17, as I was attempting to drop out of HS and run away for the first time, I stood in front of a bathroom mirror at my friend’s house, pounding my chest with my fist in tears screaming “this is MY life!” It was a desperate act of defiance in order to escape an impossible situation. I did end up returning to finish school, but there would be plenty of other acts of self sabotage 🙃
