I am struggling with an addiction of sorts to suicidal thoughts. I want in part to run away from my stress, trauma, and suffering in a very literal way. But what I want more is to be full of self-love, peace, and true freedom. I am walking this path of love to the best of my ability. I am grateful for this talk that is full of compassion. I send love and blessings to everyone in the sangha who is walking the path of love right along with me. ❤💐🌈
❤I cannot find the right words to express the gratitude I have in my heart n soul. Your genuine compassion for those of us that were born with addictive personalities has given me hope that thecycle of addiction that plagued my family for generations can be broken by me. Just yesterday I was telling my dear husband that I feel like I was doomed from the start. When I was just a girl of 8 or 9 years old I heard there was stuff that could make me feel different from the way I felt inside full of fear and rage. By 12 I stsrted a 30 year journey of using anything that would numb my pain. A few years ago I started to listen to the stories of The Buddha and how he taught me about the 1st noble truth of Dukka. But it was hearing you say that I too can find the end of my suffering. May your life be full of love and happiness 🌻
Dearest Sister D, Blessings and Gratitude for all you are sharing via your books and videos to bring healing, comfort and peace to so many. After many years of trauma, addictions and CPTSD I feel blessed to have recently found the Plum Village videos and app. Thanks to dear Beloved Thay, the Sangha and extended community for the gift of collective healing.🙏💞
Dear Sister Bohdisatva This message is Exactly what I was looking for! Tonight I dedicate the Evening Bell chant to your words. Hapchang Hapchang Hapchang!
Thank you Sister Dang Nghiem ❤ This really helps me understand myself and others. Addiction truly is a coping mechanism, it helps to survive an unbearable situation. Just trying to survive. We should not judge but try to understand and create a better society, in the present moment and from now on. It is a very courageous deed to stop and just be 🌺🌸🌼
Gratefulness alongside forgiveness through medical guidance healed me. Mindfulness and love are tools to heal. Use them with love for all creation.😂❤❤❤🙏
Thanks for sharing. I gave up alcohol when I realized nothing is solved or things get worse by drinking 🍺🍷

Fear or love. There is always a choice. Therein lays our freedom. It may not feel easy. It may feel impossible. Yet, choice is available.
Absolutely 😢 perfectly spoken ❤ every human can relate….. 🙏🏽 thank you Sister
Shedding tears of joy because of your wonderful darma.😂
Thank you ❤️
Some people are more their addictions than themselves
It can be an addiction when we help others to deny ourselves.
Brilliant
I am still here…
