Confused - Something Inside SWIM is Changing

[The Doors]

SWIM has been feeling a bit bizzare lately, it is hard to explain what is happening to him. SWIM feels that something inside him is changing, this may sound bizzare but he's been able to feel the energly flow in his body in the past few days.

He's also had a lot things on his mind, his mother is currently fighting a battle against lukemia... SWIM is trying not to think negatively and so is his mother, but it's getting hard.

SWIM is unable to focus on school work, he is completely unmotivated for his program and can't seem to find the effort to do it, and he doesn't feel as though it has to do with laziness. SWIM decided that he is dropping his program and taking some time off to find the right domain for himself. He doesn't really know what to go into, psychology and political science are two subjects that might be worth puising into. He's not just looking for a good financial career, he wants to be able to change things and how society is... Some might say it is the young in me speaking and perhaps that is true, but it is while I think it's worth to act not afterwards right?

Anyways, that's all for now...

if swiy truly feel like this all the time then swim thinks it is a good idea that swiy dropped the program to give your self some time to think and reflect, swim would suggest taking some time to just sit back and think about what really would makes swiy happy in life, what would keep you motivated and interested, if swiy has some internal conflicts that swiy just can't seem to get through on swiy's own then maybe some professional help would be a good option to look into.

these are just some suggestions that came to swims mind after reading the post, swim wishes swiy the best, and hopes swiy can find a way to overcome this rut swiy seems to be stuck in. swim also sends his best wishes and prayers to swiy's mother, because he knows what it is like to have a loved one battling cancer.

Ok, you are asking for psychiatric advice from amateurs, so read everything in that light. I can\'t give any positive advice, but this \"dropping the program\" idea is probably a mistake. SwiMs friend was in a similar scenario and decided to take (his final) year off from school, to repeat it the next year. SwiMs friend, of course, never returned. Long story short, it turned out badly.

SWIM is questionning himself but for the right reasons. His post may have been unclear on a few levels. SWIM feels like there is something waiting him, he just needs to overcome the fear of death. SWIM has accepted the fact that we die, but what if SWIM would be able to accomplish something of big magnitude if he was willing to put his life at stake for the serve of a bigger cause. He just needs to find something/a cause or whatever that he will truly be passionate about(not necessarely having to do with putting his life in danger)

Thanks for the support!

Volunteering will put your own problems into perspective STAT.

Serving food to homeless families, delivering flowers to cancer patients, or doing something at a burn unit makes a person realize that there are others in this world like him in almost every regard except they weren't just quite as lucky.

You'll be motivated and have a new found gratitude to be healthy and among the living.

Try it. What else have you got to lose?
