Hi Charmed20
How's things? Your question is very broad yet at the same time, so personal. It is great that you have reached out in this way. This first step of reaching out and asking for help is one of the most difficult, emotional and revealing steps that you can take. Once you have taken this step, you are well on your way to sorting your problems out. Actually, the hardest step, is not admitting to another that you need "help" (in whatever context that may be), but admitting to yourself, that there is actually a problem, and that you need help. In today's world, that is so competitive, demanding, cruel and lonely, giving voice to your need of emotional and psychological guidance, takes a great deal of courage. I salute you for doing so. If I can be of further help.. I am a qualified counselor, specializing in addictions, depression, and self-harm, and have a deep personal knowledge and experience in these, ..and others.. If you would like to chat with me personally, reply to this and we can then exchange email addresses. In the time time being, keep strong, get good sleep, eat well, and when you feel like reaching out when no-one is there for you, write it down, - perhaps in the form of a letter to the person or persons that is connected with your emotions, be them positive or negative. You need not ever post these letters, but I can tell you that this method is a purifying way of expressing your inner emotions. And the best thing, is that you can write exactly what you want to, rant and rave, blame and accuse, forgive and love. Your words are yours, you own them, and no-one can ever take that away from you. When the time is right, and you will know when, take these letters and burn them. Wow, it is just one of the most amazing and liberating ways of ridding yourself of your shadows that have followed you around for far too long....
Anyway, I have gotten carried away here, so please excuse me. All the best and stay strong.

I go read good books with wisdom, like the bible or books by his Holiness the Dali Lama.
I think about the advice my parents would have given me.
I review any life experience I've had with a similar sort of situation and what I did to remediate it .
Then I meditate or pray for guidance.
An idea or some words of wisdom come and usually help me solve my problem.

If there's no one to talk to, my friends wouldnt be real friends. I'd probably find a consellor if its something that bothers me alot or else I'd write in a journal. Writing is a way of expressing yourself. It could be anger or bitterness or heartbreak & so on. It really does help :)
It's good to get it off your chest. Makes u feel so much better. Like a heavy load lifted off :)

Actually guys dont talk about their problem, because when men have a problem or deeply thinking about somthing they tend to sit alone or go to their caves. While women tend to talk if they feel somthing is bothering them. As such habit are part of our human nature. sceintifically proven. Hope i gave u a good answer

Sometimes come on to Y answers. Sometimes write it out, then erase it. It helps. Because if it's something that would be disastrous if it got out, it's better not to tell anyone at all. There's always a chance it could come back on you. On Y answers one is anonymous so it's safer.

Confide in someone you know and trust; a friend,family member or even a rabbi/priest/holy man-woman.
