Fighting Under Pressure

Submitted on Nov 20, 2025 by  Destiny123

Have you ever felt like screaming and it's like nobody would hear you if you did? Sometimes you're between a rock and a hard place and don't know whether you're coming or going because so much is built up within you. The kids, spouse, bills... the care of this world seems like let down after let down. You give it your all when you yourself feel like your all is not good enough.

Fighting under so much pressure, trying to keep it together when you have so many reasons to break. The question is What do you do when you're fighting under so much pressure? Who do you talk to, because you just can't talk to everyone? Your head feels like it's about to explode because the pressure is so heavy you think you can't bear it any longer, feel like you're about to throw it all away, you know like a balloon ready to pop!

Your life feels like that but you keep going no matter what obstacles you face to still stay in the ring. You may have fell but you get back up. A true friend is not goin to talk about you, they will help you under pressure and lift you up. We have to be careful who we call a "friend" ... they rather see you going through it. Under pressure you just STAND. You may bend but you're not going to break. Life is hard but we keep going.
