LOH #235 || Daring emotional pain in spite of fears.
Hola amigas de la comunidad de Ladies Of Hive, espero se encuentren bien ❤️🩹. El día de hoy quise participar en el nuevo concurso #235 para responder a una de las preguntas de esta semana propuesta por @ifarmgirl. Me gustaría poder ser lo más sincera posible con este tema que me lleva a pensar en las veces que he creído que mostrar vulnerabilidad me hacía ser una persona débil cuando es totalmente lo contrario. Quisiera invitar a @iamsaray para que se una al concurso y también pueda responder las preguntas que ella desee. ☺️
Hello friends of the Ladies Of Hive community, I hope you are well ❤️🩹. Today I wanted to participate in the new contest #235 to answer one of this week's questions proposed by @ifarmgirl. I would like to be as honest as possible with this topic that leads me to think about the times I thought that showing vulnerability made me a weak person when it's totally the opposite. I'd like to invite @iamsaray to join the contest so she can also answer any questions she wants. ☺️
¿Cómo se recupera del dolor emocional o la pena? // How do you recover from emotional pain or grief?
¿El dolor emocional es signo de debilidad? Es algo que siempre he tratado de comprender sobre todo porque soy una persona muy auténtica, me cuesta mucho no demostrar cuando algo me hace sentir mal o desmotivada. Desde pequeña recuerdo a personas de mi familia diciendo que lloraba mucho, que literalmente lloraba por todo. Y eso quedó grabado en mi mente como una forma de decir que yo era una persona débil solo por mostrarme vulnerable. Es normal que llorara por tantas situaciones que no entendía en su momento a través de mi vida, pero eso no era lo normal para algunos adultos que conforman mi familia.
Is emotional pain a sign of weakness? It's something I've always tried to understand, especially because I'm a very authentic person, it's hard for me not to show when something makes me feel bad or unmotivated. Since I was little I remember people in my family saying that I cried a lot, that I literally cried for everything. And that was engraved in my mind as a way of saying that I was a weak person just for being vulnerable. It's normal for me to cry over so many situations that I didn't understand at the time throughout my life, but that was not normal for some adults in my family.
Recuerdo que sentía que llorar era algo que estaba mal pero cuando lo hacía me sentía liberada. Siempre he pensado que me he logrado recuperar de muchas cosas llorando, aunque dicen que llorar no resuelve nada, para mí era volver a conectar con mi lado más humano y sentir que me permitía reflejar el dolor por el que estuviera pasando. De mi familia soy la que más llora aunque últimamente no lo hago tanto ya que no he sentido la necesidad, pero cuando estoy muy presionada por circunstancias difíciles siento la necesidad tan humana de llorar para liberarme de la carga y el estrés que generan los procesos complejos de la vida.
I remember feeling that crying was wrong but when I did it I felt liberated. I have always thought that I have been able to recover from many things by crying, although they say that crying does not solve anything, for me it was to reconnect with my human side and feel that it allowed me to reflect the pain I was going through. In my family I am the one who cries the most, although lately I don't cry so much because I have not felt the need, but when I am under a lot of pressure due to difficult circumstances I feel the very human need to cry to free myself from the burden and stress generated by the complex processes of life.
Nunca he pasado por una situación que sea tan dura cómo para decir que tuve que sobrevivir, pero si vivi una época en la que un familiar cercano y que quería con el alma estaba muy enfermo y paso por momentos dónde perdió todo el control de su mente y su cuerpo y verlo en este estado me derrumbó, tanto que baje mucho de peso, tenía problemas para dormir, hasta que caí en depresión que fue debido a un conjunto de situaciones externas más la situación con este familiar que luego de un ano muy difícil falleció. No puedo olvidar el sentir que estaba sola a pesar de estar acompañada, ese sentimiento es algo que no le deseo a nadie.
I have never gone through a situation that is so hard as to say that I had to survive, but I did live a time when a close relative that I loved with my soul was very sick and went through moments where he lost all control of his mind and body and seeing him in this state brought me down, so much so that I lost a lot of weight, had trouble sleeping, until I fell into depression which was due to a set of external situations plus the situation with this relative that after a very difficult year he passed away. I cannot forget the feeling that I was alone even though I was in company, that feeling is something that I do not wish to anyone.
Realmente después de esta situación tuve que volver a encontrarme con la persona que soy y recobrar el sentido de mi vida, no veía la manera de que fuera posible que tantas cosas difíciles pudieran sucederme en tan poco tiempo. Habían noches en las que sentía que ya no podía más y mi mayor decisión fue buscar ayuda con un profesional de la salud mental para poder reponerme de todo esto. Para muchos fue difícil entender mi decisión, tal vez aún sigan sin entenderlo, pero ellos no estuvieron en mis zapatos para saber lo que se sintió.
After this situation I really had to get back to the person I am and recover the meaning of my life, I did not see how it was possible that so many difficult things could happen to me in such a short time. There were nights when I felt I could not take it anymore and my biggest decision was to seek help from a mental health professional in order to recover from all of this. It was hard for many to understand my decision, maybe they still don't, but they were not in my shoes to know what it felt like.
No me avergüenza decir que tengo un tratamiento con el que he conseguido sentirme mejor y mejorar en muchos aspectos de mi vida, tal vez me falta mucho por aprender y por aceptar de la vida que me tocó, pero tener ayuda y una persona que realmente sabe escuchar y que puede comprender por lo que estaba pasando me salvó de muchas maneras. Además del apoyo de mi mamá, mi papá y mis hermanos, sin ellos nada hubiera sido igual, ellos me salvan día a día con cada gesto que tienen hacia mi y me siento muy agradecida con Dios por tenerlos y por su amor.
I am not ashamed to say that I have a treatment with which I have managed to feel better and improve in many aspects of my life, maybe I still have a lot to learn and to accept the life that I had, but having help and a person who really knows how to listen and who can understand what I was going through saved me in many ways. Besides the support of my mom, my dad and my siblings, without them nothing would have been the same, they save me day by day with every gesture they have towards me and I feel very grateful to God for having them and for their love.
El primer paso es reconocer que es lo que nos hace sentir mal emocionalmente, después podemos buscar en alguien de confianza el soporte para empezar a dar pequeños pasos para nuestra recuperación del dolor emocional, que puede ser producto de un duelo, una perdida, un rompimiento de algo en nuestra vida que hace que sintamos que no podemos más, pero que si ponemos nuestra confianza y fortaleza en Dios que es el ser que más nos ama antes que nada y nos dejamos guiar por el apoyo de nuestros seres queridos podremos aprender a vivir a través del dolor, que muchas veces tal vez no se vaya del todo pero si podemos aliviar nuestras cargas.
The first step is to recognize what makes us feel bad emotionally, then we can look to someone we trust for support to start taking small steps for our recovery from emotional pain, which may be the result of a grief, a loss, a breakup of something in our life that makes us feel that we can no longer, but if we put our trust and strength in God who is the one who loves us more than anything and let us be guided by the support of our loved ones we can learn to live through the pain, which often may not go away completely but if we can relieve our burdens.

Crying is not a weakness, but for whatever reason, society thinks it is. Hope such a notion will change with time. Seeking professional help is a sign of strength. It means we recognize that we are going through a challenging phase in life and need help. I'm glad to read you have taken the initiative. And indeed, putting our faith in God is also the way to go.
Hello, thank you very much for your words. Hopefully someday things will be better, that people can change their way of thinking or at least respect the other. It is necessary to break us in some moments to realize what is really valuable in our lives. Thanks for reading my post, best regards 🤗
