any advice to drive away the craziness? I've just had one of those days you know and I feel like it's just getting to me too much and that I might just freak. I don't want to flip out on the wrong person, any advice for the people who know how this feels?

Listen to Lorrie Morgans song--I need one of those nights tonight maybe it will make you feel better if you like country that is.


I've had one of those days today
I'm in one of those moods
And it's just no good
Nothin' I wanna talk about
I just need for you to take me out
And do the town, turn it upside down.

Chorus: I need one of those nights tonight
Wanna go left where the world goes right
I've lost my appetite for this side of midnight
Wanna burn out those neon lights
Past the point of Fahrenheit
I wanna feel my heart ignite when you hold me tight
I need one of those nights tonight
'Cause I've had one of those days today.

I've got one of those jobs
And I've had enough
You'd better walk me out this door
Before I run to Singapore
Just show me how you love me now

Repeat Chorus

I'm in one of those moods
I'm in one of those moods
I'm in one of those ways
I've had one of those days.

Repeat Chorus

I know how you feel because I've felt like that too. Here are 12 tips that help me:

12 Ways to Lighten Up

Approaching your life with a non-serious attitude gives you a clearheaded view of difficulties and the energy to deal with them. Problems are easier to solve, people are more cooperative and you feel more relaxed. You probably live longer and more successfully as well.

Try these techniques until you find one that lightens you up.

1. Deliberately turn a molehill into a mountain. Make a big deal out of a little problem. "I would feel much better if these papers were stacked exactly like this! Not like that! Like this! Not this! This!"

2. Ask yourself, "Is getting serious about this situation really going to improve it?"

3. Focusing on the positives. Repeat these questions until you feel lighter, "What is right about this picture?" "What else is right?" "What else?"

4. Consider a complete, major change. Why not go back to school? Why not move to Idaho? Why not retire for a few years or start a new career?

5. Ask yourself, "When I’m on my deathbed, will I be glad I was so serious about _______?"

6. A challenging game is much better than no game at all. So consider losing all aspects of the problem. Examples: You feel serious about family problems. You ask yourself, "Well, what if I had no family at all?" You feel serious about your investments. You ask yourself, "What if I had no money to invest?"

7. The size of your problem may match the size of your game. So get a bigger game. For example, if you get uptight about paper clips being in the wrong drawer, your game size is tiny. Double your amount of responsibility. Set some huge goals. Succeed by thinking much, much bigger.

8. Stop trying to solve the problem that is making you so serious. Certain types of problems solve themselves if you leave them alone. Your problem may be one of those.

9. Compare what you are doing to other careers. Imagine being a septic tank drainer or an IRS agent.

10. Make everyone around you lighten up. You will soon feel more cheerful.

11. Look at bizarre solutions. What is the craziest way you could solve your problem? What solution, if it worked, would make you laugh out loud?

12. Act stupid for a minute. Let down your hair. Stop being so darn important for a while. Be a goof!

When you feel that way you should take some time out. Find a nice relaxing spot, like looking out over the mountains, the beach, a river, lake, or whatever you have in your area. Take along some paper and a pen and just write. Write whatever comes to your mind without holding back (its only for you to see, so don't worry about it). You can clear your mind this way, relax, and even come up with some solutions to problems or things that are bothering you. Just spend some time in your own world without the nagging pressure of other people. Take as long as you need and you'll come out more relaxed, with a clear mind and ready to take on those challenges that are making you so stressed.

Besides of all the other people's really good advice: Humor really helps. Get something to laugh about. Quick.

I once felt like you and went a bought 3 Gary Larson books and one of his calendars. After the first one I had laughed off and away all the energy which would have made me explode otherwise.

But....working out real hard in a gym works too, get the boxing gloves on and punch that punching ball, or swim a couple laps more than normal.

Believe it or not, if your stress level reaches the point where it seems you are outside of your body looking in, that is a description of being insane at that moment. However, I'd like to point out that "insane" is a legal term, not a medical term.

I think you need to log off, take a nice long walk, and actually look at the universe from a different perspective ok? Good Luck

Take a walk, breath in, breath out, walk to an ice cream shop, and get something with chocolate. What ever it is making you crazy, its probably not that bad, when you think about it. You got to think to yourself, life is too short to let things get to you and with time, things get better, they always do. And then, get ready, 'cause another crazy day comes. forget about it.....life is too short.
