Answer 1

Sweetheart,

You're gonna be fine. I was there back '83. I had no idea what I was going to do. I finally had the realization that this life is too short to waste away not being happy. What do YOU like to do? You have to figure these things out and do them. Get away, I repeat get away from people that bring you down. Honey, there is always someone out there to love you and make you happy. Find this person. All I can say is that you will have to find happiness from within. It's there, and it's not that far away.

Best wishes. You can do it.

Answer 2

There are a few things you can do to make yourself feel better. It looks to me like you are already taking one important step by posting here. You need to talk to someone about your negative feelings - a friend or family member that you can really open up to, or a counsellor. You'll feel a lot better if you can talk openly about what's bothering you.

Maybe you're just not happy with the way that your life is going and you need a change. Think about what you really want to do with your life, and ask yourself if that's what you're doing right now. If it's not, make a plan to get yourself there. Take classes part-time outside of work, or start looking for a new job.

Perhaps you don't have enough interests outside of work/school. These can help you to de-stress on a regular basis and keep you from dwelling on the things that make you anxious. You should try persuing something that you've always wanted to try. Take up a sport, or a musical instrument. Take up yoga or kickboxing. Join a bookclub.

It's also possible that what you really need isn't a vacation, but just some time off to do absolutely nothing. Vacations can actually be stressful in themselves. The most stress-free time off is the time you take off to do whatever you feel like. Take a few days off of work and just relax around home. Take long, hot baths. Read a book. Go for walks in you local parks.

All that being said, your sadness may be a medical problem, and you may need to seek some outside help to get it to go away. How long have these feelings lasted? If you've felt like this consistently for more than two weeks, you may have clinical depression. This is caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain, and a doctor can prescribe medication that will fix the imbalance and make you feel a lot better.

Answer 3

Well, the reason might be purely physiological. Some say that the imbalance of serotonin and norepenephrin can cause depression. In that case, you just have to stick it out, until the doctor presribes you a good pill, and there are relatively good pills.
It might be that the reason is psychological though. Some people might feel empty when they don't see their place in life. The failure to answer an existential question(such as "why was I born?") can suffice to trigger melancholic moods. The practical answer is: seek. If you want to look inside of you (and you are the best expert on yourself) you can purchase some books that teach you simple techniques of meditation adopted to the demands of Western life. Proper meditation will give you all the answers you need.
If you want to look outside of you, trying new things to which you have paid no attention previously could do the trick. Are you interested to travel, do you feel lacking for not having a boyfriend?
Do you feel drawn to any field in particular, and are afraid to investigate it? Would you be willing to learn new hobbies having to do with history or literature, philosophy or psychology, technology or math? You might find satisfaction in finding yourself some creative hobby.
Sometimes the solution is less trivial than meets the eye. So don't be alarmed If neither of those options speak to you, you might need the help of a therapist who generally has the tools to establish exactly what you are lacking and point you in the right direction. I hope at least one of the answers will give you some clue. Happiness is probably our greatest right in life, and it is sad when we cannot exercise it. Good Luck.

Answer 4

I have the same problem sometimes. The best thing I've found is to be sure I'm up and dressed by 10am each morning, whether or not I have anything planned. The other thing that is hard sometimes but that really works is to go to the gym or do anything aerobic, every day if possible. Try to really get your heart rate up. i like the elliptical trainer, since it is not hard on my joints, but gets my heart rate up. Look on-line to find your ideal heart rate zones: mine are between 135 and 148. Or just walk briskly for at least 20-30 minutes, more if possible. I find that after several days of this, my mood is much better and I am able to have energy to do the other things that make me happy, like playing music or drawing or meeting new people. They say regular excercise is almost as effective as antidepressant therapy.

That said, I am also on antidepressants, and have responded well to them. They have really improved my life. If you are still feeling sad after trying out an excercise routine, or if you feel really hopeless, then please find a therapist to get the help you need. Think of them like a coach, training you to be happy. I hope you feel happier soon. Sometimes you just get the blues, but things will get better.

Go to a counselor and tell him/her everything. You could be depressed or maybe just going through a down time.
The point is...Make sure that you take care of yourself.
Make yourself a priority and do what you need to get better.

Answer 9

This is the condition of being a human being. You can't change species in this lifetime, so suck it up and get on with it.

If happiness were as common as you'd like it to be, it wouldn't even have a name.

Answer 10

Pray, if you believe in God
Write in a journal
Exercise
Stay busy with things you enjoy, I know when you're depressed it is hard to find things you enjoy, but try to find something.
