This is so true! A couple months ago I finally came to terms with the fact that I don't like grapes because I find the way they burst in my mouth to be surprising. Since I can remember, I always assumed I loved grapes as they are juicy, purple, bite-sized, tart morsels of tender fruit that need not be peeled, seeded, or sliced and can be enjoyed by the bunch for a reasonable price. Even though this realization seems a trivial one, it has brought me a lot of peace as I have realized that things that I "should" logically like because of their surface traits aren't necessarily the things that I do, in fact, like. Perhaps I am free to do-- or not do-- as I please even when common sense says that doing something else would make me happier. I can start to declutter my life and learn how to better take care of my human animal by believing my apparent preferences without substituting them with seemingly more sensible narratives.

Because I worked with people in a professional context, I had to teach them the boundries of who you can express those feelings for and when. Honestly, I fell in love with each of them completely each and everyday. I tried to teach each of them that all love is an act of patience, kindness, and service. I hope that now those kids are both middle-aged and young adults who can show their families and caregiverers appreciation and self-help and pride. The love they acknowledged in me was such an unexpected gift that I feel warm when I think of them. They seemed to recognize that I was sincere. Love lasts forever in my heart and mind. I hope they can still feel the love I pray They have.

I miss getting excited over things, being happy, feeling sadness. I am faking my smile, my happiness, even my sadness.

What I miss most about myself is my eyesight. Before I started losing my sight, I had my own place, an amazing job, and freedom. Within a span of a few weeks I went from 20/20 vision to being legally blind and not even able to walk down a sidewalk by myself. I had to leave a job that I wanted to make a career of and retire from, that first week as I had no clue what was going on. By the second week i knew that it was unsafe for me to drive. The third week is when it got to the point where it was hard to walk up and down the stairs to my apartment without tripping and falling. I did everything I could to keep my apartment, but had to give up after two years and move into my parents' house. I had everything that I ever wanted, and lost it all due to an eye disease that can not be corrected. I was a very happy person before this, and it has changed me to the point that I don't recognize myself. It has changed relationships and my viewpoint on the world and life in general. I have become bitter, resentful, and angry as I was always the good guy that did everything for everyone and this happened to me. Whereas people I know screw everyone over, get everything they want, and nothing happens. I mostly miss who I was back then, not necessarily my eyesight. I was 27 when my life changed, back in 2016

All through high school I slowly came out of my shell and started speaking up more and meeting new people and people realizing that I wasn't just "the school weirdo". I was really looking forward to senior year, I got my grades together and finally on track to graduate and be even more social. The pandemic happened and I got shoved back into my shell and didn't get a senior year and all I gained was anxiety and paranoia.

That’s something every parent goes through. Secret is that yes, they will be hurt, inevitably, but they’ll be okay anyways. Being hurt and let down is a part of life and we wouldn’t be as good people without it. There are much worse things than being hurt in the world. Only thing you should really be worrying about is how to raise your kids so that they’ll face whatever it is they go through the best way possible.

Hey, I feel with you so much!! I had this for YEARS, and didn't even realize it... just was feeling depressed, empty, breathing shallow and kind of "holding my breath", waiting for something to happen,...Not daring to let go of worries, let go of the pain and the pressure. At one point I literally started to have unbearable aching pain under my collarbones, you know, round the tip of the lungs.That's when i actually realized that this is what I deperately WANT to and NEED to get back, being able to BREATHE again. And somehow, after a long time of suffering, things started to change. I started to change. Being able to take the first really deep breath again was like surrender and like being born again. This happened only recently. (Btw I'm a fortysomething woman) I still have to pay conscious attention to taking deep breaths, but it comes more easily now. So what I'm trying to tell you is, you should know that you CAN get it back, and you WILL get it back, you are strong enough to process and deal with all the pressure and the pain, things will change eventually! So just keep working on yourself and you'll get there!

I can relate to this so much. I’m 22 years old and I feel like I’m deteriorating so quickly. There’s something wrong with my nose and lungs and it feels like I’m getting half the air I’m supposed to be. It feels like my nasal passages are shrinking or just insanely swollen or something, and even when I try and take a deep breath, it feels like the air doesn’t get to my lungs. Breathing isn’t liberating anymore. It feels like a task that I have to force so hard to do and when I think about it I think about how unfulfilling it is. I can barely smell anything anymore either. I’ll stretch my face and nose to open up my airways and that’s the only time I feel like I am getting enough air. It sounds insane that I’m paying this must attention to my nose and lungs but breathing is something that is so essential to being in the present moment and when I’m outside and trying to focus on the nature around me I feel like I can’t be there with it because it feels like I’m suffocating. I’ve spoken with my doctor about it and they’re not sure what it is so I am seeing an ENT specialist but they said nothing is wrong besides some minor swelling and mucus buildup. Hopefully they listen to me and are able to help me more. Good luck to you and the issue you’re struggling with. I hope one day you are able to breathe the way you used to and find liberation and peace through breathing again❤️

Try journaling daily ! And also read books about people telling their story; it will help you gain knowledge on how to put words and form sentences about what you feel, what you go through etc. Also emotion charts! You just have to choose the word that you’re feeling rn and write it down + the reason why Sometimes we just want someone to listen but because no one does, it’s better to silence ourselves and our emotions. Delete all the words because then we have nothing to say or feel. But emotions are actually here to help us connect with our true selves and others more deeply. Most of the words I know now I learned from reading; books, dictionaries, stories, fictions, articles, etc. Emotional intelligence and verbal communication is like a muscle, work it out and you’ll see how much strength you have! Sorry for so many words, hope this will help you! Take care of yourself :)

For so long I've hated myself. I've despised myself for allowing myself to get abused and hurt by all the aggressors in my life. I've hated myself for still trusting people in general despite all of my pain, for still being kind and compassionate and understanding. I've hated myself for making friends and letting people inside my heart. I miss trusting myself. That's what I miss the most. But hearing all of these brave people talk about how they miss being innocent and naïve and stupid... words I've used to put down myself countless times, brings me to tears. I've always thought myself weak for not changing with my experiences, but I look at their pain and self acceptance, and I realize that I am strong. I realize that I am lucky. I realize that despite my disorders and my neuroticism, I have not yet broken. I am still ready to fight.

I do not at all, actually, feel like I'll ever understand what it's like to miss my "depressed self" when I must try to deal every day, and have for 31 years, with chronic, clinical depression. I think very few people w actual, biochemical, almost lifelong, sometimes incapacitating depression would "miss" the options and joys and freedoms available to a non-depressed person. I think few people could miss being someone who doesn't need to struggle to get out of bed, brush their teeth, bathe, leave the house at all, or attempt to work only to repeatedly fail. I am not saying that it's not possible to miss depression; it must be, if so many people feel this way. But, I just think that surely liberation from the true mood disorder of severe depression---which completely narrows, dwarves, and dehumanizes one's existence---is something far more depressed people long to experience, than anyone who no longer suffers from it could really "miss" the deforming, destructive, life stunting, dream crushing disorder of chronic depression.

wow this question is so deep, yet it’s definitely something we should ask ourselves. it’s a great way of seeing how far you’ve come, & also seeing how you can grow to get where you want to be. such an amazing way to do self reflection.

I miss not being in a perpetual state of worry. I can never just sit down and relax because there's a big uncertainty about my next few years that will determine the rest of my life.

I hope you can quiet your mind. I sit at the opposite side of this, seeing death every week, particularly unexpected death has meant I don't really invest in future planning. Making and worrying about plans that can be snuffed out in a second just seems pointless. It would be nice to feel there are possibilities again.

Being a uni student who is not one of the party ppl, i can go on with the amount of stress burden it added on me.

All of these were great! But also that last one hit me hard. I totally get it, I’m 50 and have the same issues. I had Covid in November 2020 right before the vaccines came out and I suffer debilitating Neurological issues everyday along with some breathing issues. But mainly Neurological. I miss how my brain used to be as well, it is very frustrating when you feel you are losing your whole being. I also have a body that is breaking down way too early for me. I have always been young at heart and was very physical. So I understand the hurt and hopelessness he feels from not physically being able to do the things anymore. Blessings To All 💜 Lisa

@ MILLE🌺FIORI I'm 54 and had covid in October 2020. Experienced it alone, away from 99% of my family. I thought I would die but miraculously had enough sanity to stay alive and keep from being taken/sent to the hospital.. not many were making it out alive then! But I, too, have so many residual and failing health issues from every angle. Battling near debilitating depression, nerve and arthritic pains. Hang in there, Lisa. 💚💙❤🙏

I miss being naive, free, fearless and optimistic about life even when I was going through dark times. When I was younger I was able to be a free spirit, not scared to talk to or be around everyone. I was in theater and I was around people who accepted me for who I was. Now after dealing with loss and abuse, I live in a shell, scared to even go outside to the store. It doesnt help that my family has unrealistic expectations of me. Its really depressing.

It sounds crazy when she says „I miss having depression“ but I kinda understand her. I’m actually with her on that. The years that I’ve been depressed were the years were I did so many things I see as quality time like spending time alone, listening to a shit load of music of all kind, drawing, writing, reading, going on walks and enjoy nature, feeling stuff. Depression felt and feels deeply woven into my personality since I‘ve had it since I was very young, that when I gave depression the space and time in my life that it asked me to it actually felt like I was giving myself the time and space to feel and just be. Now that I’m getting older and healthier I have to take on so much more responsibility and I don’t have (or take, maybe it’s on me…) the time or (head-) space to just be. Feeling a lot of difficult emotions always felt enriching but with the new lifestyle it feels like a burden, like the real me could never fit in the adult world. I don’t know if I’m making sense right now. I miss the depressed me, that’s all I’m saying. I miss feeling a lot, even when it’s complicated, I miss thinking about life, the big stuff.

I wonder if you mean that you miss feeling feelings when you were depressed. Because when you are out of that, you think more about real life and physcial things, rationally. Im currently severely depressed and I always wonder if I'll ever get out of it one day.. alive. I hope I do.

it’s not confusing at all like I get that. there was so much stuff going on in my brain before i was diagnosed and medicated for depression, and now my brain is just kinda empty and all i’m doing is existing, without any meaning or feeling. idk if that’s exactly what you meant but that’s my take on it too

@@bapbirb hey you! I’m rooting for you and I wish you all the best. With what I wrote it’s difficult to argue or make it sound believable that I don’t want to glorify depression. I missed the part where I’m saying I’m grateful for not trying to erase myself from earth anymore and I regret that. I am very fucking grateful that I feel better now, I know it’s a privilege, and I wish that for you too. When I’m rereading what I wrote three weeks ago (feels longer), I see that I’m not “over the hill” myself if you could say so. I’m clearly not giving myself the space to be my authentic self and follow my interests and I can still sense that note of the hopeless perspective on the future, this “I will never fit” mentality. I don’t know if my answer means anything but I’d come to the conclusion that the answers are always inside of you and that brutal honesty with yourself and radical self-acceptance and -love is the key. As shitty as depression is, it brings out the most empathetic, loving and real people. The world needs people like us and I hope you can see more and more how much value you bring to the world. You are important, your perspective matters and it’s not your fault that you suffer from depression. Be good to yourself. If you need someone, I have an open 👂🏻 🧡

People are so... poetic

As someone who struggles with cognitive empathy, this is such a wholesome insight into the internal world of other people.

I miss being emotional - As a teenager all my feelings were so intense. Really sad, angry and happy moments. A certain song, film or experience could be so moving. Now it's so hard to reach a certain state.

i miss being able to trust people, being able to love freely, and letting people in my life without doubting them even though they mean no harm thinking of all the times they've proved themselves. i miss the person i was when i hadn't gone through extremely traumatic experiences that scarred me for life, i miss wanting to wake up everyday.

When he said he missed being naive and young honestly I could relate. I also feel like sometimes not knowing certain things in life can actually be less stressful. The world can be harsh true, but you can choose not to be❤.

We know there’s someone special behind the camera when people open up like this. Thank you, Thoraya.

I personally miss my childhood My smile, when I didn’t know what the world was I miss being naive basically I miss being a little kid Who didn’t know I would go through a lot in the future I miss thinking, well, nothing I miss thinking that one day I’d be the queen,or that one day I’d live in a mansion. I miss loving the little things I miss not knowing I miss me I miss the friends that I used to have at my old school I miss myself I miss when I was trusting I miss when I was caring I miss when I was loving I miss me

Need more older generation interviews.

We’re more common than we think. We must be careful not to trap ourselves in self sabotaging worlds/scenarios that we create as a result of pain and trauma.🙏🏾

Loved seeing the young Father work on being softer for his beloved Daughter. I felt that. My beloved Daughter has done the same. Blessings young Father! ❤

I miss being pure, innocent. Growing up sucks. One day I am going to miss walking. So I will enjoy being able to do it now as much as I can.

I miss The feeling of not being afraid seems like I’m afraid of everything now the future, people, Just life in general.
