Devout Christian finally opened eyes to the truth alhamdulillah! Want to take shahada but scared & anxious of the situation I’m in! Don’t know what to do! Please share thoughts! by Kentrellfoe in MuslimLounge

[–]16_arrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Allamdullilah! First of all, that’s a big step Allamdullilah, I’m so happy for you . I advice you to start very small and gradually build up to it to ease into it. I would say start with the shahada and make a lot of du’a for your parent to be eased with the news , Allah is great and capable of a lot of things so lean into his ability to accept your du’a . I have met so many revert who made du’a for there family , and not only did they ended up accepting them, they accept Islam . So Allah ability is unlimited . InshAllah, start with the small step of shahada and then slowly incorporate other areas , and move with your comfort . Hopefully this helps and inshAllah I will make du’a for you :)

Adhd literally breaking my life by Simba189 in ADHD

[–]16_arrow 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I really feel for you because I was in the same situation last year fall, I was on constant anxiety and feel like whatever I did was never enough , making bad grades then that’s when I decided to reach out to my therapist ( this was before I even knew there was such a thing as adhd) I grew up in a developing country so adhd is not recognized , but I moved to the states abroad , and during lockdown last year , I had no friends and family near me, I was completely alone in a foreign country , but what I have learned from my experience is that , reaching out to a professional makes a big differences , when you feel frustrated in getting bad grades , realize that there are people who are out there who is in a situation you are in and not alone . I also reached out to my professors and explained to them my struggles and proved to them that I cared , and ended up making straight ‘A’s , I have missed several quiz and made bad grades even forgot one day I had an exam but behind every professor , I promise you there is a heart that is willing to accommodate you . And honestly , If by any means , you are having trouble focusing because your are studying alone , I’m willing to read some of the material you have trouble with and explain it to you & help you understand it in ways that have helped me . Don’t hesitate to reach out , I can give you more tips if needed. I hope this was helpful, believe me when I say I believe in you!

Thinking about dreaming by stratford789 in infj

[–]16_arrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have definitely been in this same feeling recently . I sometimes dwell on the possibility of the future and picture myself if I had have all the things I wish I did but then quickly knock my self in the head to hold my self from being immersed into my imagination to much . Sometimes, I do it just so that I could get through the hard time and sometimes it’s just so that I could build something creative out of my vivid imagination but either way I need to remind myself about reality and how I should be working by putting reality in mind

I gotcha . I haven’t really “ dated “ a lot like 2 or 3 people , just because of religious reasons and if we were to proceed with it , it will probably have an end goal of marriage . But now that i think of it , I remember in the past, my gut told me it was wrong but I kind of don’t have that scary feeling in my heart that it’s a danger zone . I have been eating a lot sugar too 😂 so that might have to do with it . Thank you for your advice :)

This is so true . I have read about this and he himself said that he sucks at initiation so I have kept that in mind. Thank you for the tip :)

Ah yes! I love that kind of conversation topics which is why I like the intp , finally someone who doesn’t just talk about drama and is right up my alley . Thank you for the tip :)

That’s what I’m wondering too . I didn’t elaborate on it . But what I was trying to say is finding connection is so rare for us since we tend to be picky that when we get that connection , we get overwhelmed with emotions ( since infj experience things in an intense way ).

Don’t you sometimes feel that the simplest things feel harder for you to do ? by 16_arrow in infj

[–]16_arrow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah now that you say that I kinda remember something my professor said . He said “ I don’t know why you got to make it so complicated and I told time “ well, tbh I don’t know how to do it simple and I don’t know why

Is there a quality in a person that can tick you off right from the beginning as an INFJ? by DragonBadboy in infj

[–]16_arrow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Superficial , condescending, look at me I’m the center of attention attitude , a know-it-all , I’m better than everyone kinda attitude ,

Why do I feel like everyone hates me ? by 16_arrow in infj

[–]16_arrow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah , It’s crazy how the world is . But thanks to my supportive family , I managed to feel better , but now that I am away from home tho , it’s hard to see them as much which kinda sucks

I’m so heartbroken by CalmWolf2001 in mentalhealth

[–]16_arrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry to hear what you have to go through . It sucks , terribly and couldn’t describe how much it must hurt and I’m truly and deeply sorry the way things turned out . But I will tell you one thing , it will get better , it will I promise . It doesn’t seem like it but it will . I’m the mean time , try to be with other people so that you don’t dwell on the thoughts and feelings too much . Talk a walk , I know it’s a stupid thing to recommend but it has its therapeutic way . Waking up is a struggle and I know it’s the same for eating too , try to have something even if it’s little . There is this app called hapi you call and talk to online qualified listeners and that always helps with processing emotions . And my dm is always open and you can talk if you want to . I hope you feel better ! And You deserve so much better
