I am very sad now. can you tell me what do you do to make yourself feel good?

Question

I have reasons to feel bad.

Answer 1

I have been, too, with the holidays. You didn't say why, but you can e-mail me. Do something you enjoy. Exercise is good. Comedy, If you're religious, you can get some comfort there. You're not alone!

Answer 2

Are the reasons valid or imagined? Are the reasons transient or "permanent". The mind - your mind - is the one that can answer the questions I posed. However, try someone sensible that you can confide in e.g. a priest. Usually an impartial view can shed some light into why you are sad in an objective manner. I wish I can help. Unfortunately I cannot, except to say, good luck in whatever you do. There is always light at the end of a tunnel and looked at from a wider perspective, the world is a very nice place. Health, good friends and supportive family will see you through and I hope you have these in abundance. May God give you strength to carry on.

Answer 3

1) Accept your sadness. For the moment (like everything else in your world) it exists.

2) Having accepted it, recognize how yesterday you did not feel this way (last week, whenever) & how tomorrow (next week, etc.) you will also not feel this way. All feelings are temporary & changing.

3) Recognize that because feelings are temporary & changing, there is no reason to feel overly identified with them. In other words, you may feel sad, but you do not have to let the feeling dominate you - there is an element of choice available to you how to act, as some very good answerers have previously pointed out.

4) Focus on someone else, or something else more important than your feeling of the moment. It may not be easy at first but it works.

Peace,

Grieve over what it is that is making u feel so bad put it out of ur mind and sing happy tunes or listen to happy music. The longer u linger in whatever is making u feel so sad the longer for u to start to feel better.

Answer 6

Pray and ask God for his answers. Take a hot bath. Listen to calming music. Let yourself cry if you need to. Surround yourself with only positive people. Don't drink alcohol or take drugs.

Answer 7

Literrally get out of the hell hole and get moving. Go out, walk and enjoy the scenery around you, breathe fresh air, smell the green grass. Or meet up with some close friends to talk it out, having a listening ear helps.

Answer 8

This works: go run 3 miles. Force yourself to finish it without stopping.

Answer 9

Buy a Haagen Dazs, rent a good movie and invite some good friends that can make you laugh.

personally i take the big jump. i stand on a roof (must be at leas 5 stories high) and pretend to jump off by standing very close to the edge, closing my eyes, and visualizing death. This makes me very happy to be alive, and so - i become happy
