DEPRESSED!!!!
FEELING SAD AND GRUMPY!
Time
changes, situations change, our ideas, thoughts and reactions change , and moods
change. We cannot be in same frame of mind all the time . Sometimes we feel jubilant
and at times we feel miserable, down, blue discouraged and depressed.
Are you
feeling sad? It’s natural phenomenon, all of us feel the same at different
times, when things do not work according to our expectations our moods change
and we feel down and it’s normal. Sadness is an emotion as a reaction to some
event or happening around us, and it will not stay forever. You can feel
sadness for long time or short time depending about the situation that you
faced and you ultimately get out of that after some times. It's rampant
in people of all genders and ages around the world.
When we are sad?
Your opinion can be
different, but according to my observation and knowledge we feel sad;
·
When things do not go in our
way and the outcome is not the same as we expected, we feel sad.
·
When we miss someone then we
feel sad.
·
When some very close person
passes away it makes us sad as we know, no matter what we do we cannot meet them again
in our lives.
·
When we have some problem at
our work, we feel sad
·
When we have problem in our
relations, we feel sad.
When we remain alone for long period of time we feel sad.
When we remain alone for long period of time we feel sad.
When we have a lot of
negative thoughts and emotions in our mind as a reaction of any behavior or
event, we feel sad.

Sometimes if we feel we are
not abide by laws of our particular religion , we feel sad
We can
feel sad if we are not allowed to have any right on our life, we are not
allowed to decide anything about our lives.
This normally happens in South Asia, where parents and family have reserved all rights to decide about the fate and life of their children from cradle to grave. Children cannot live as they want, they cannot have a profession of their choice, they are not allowed to choose their life partner. Living in such situation is surely hard and how can we expect that one who is facing a lot of such problems, will not be sad or can be happy in any way. Being chained with invisible strings hurts you, on every try, with every passing moment, you will surely feel sad and down.

Are you interested to know about it and how we can end our sadness!!!!!
Let’s try something else!!!
Can we feel sad normally??
If same
feeling of depression and sadness doesn’t stay for long time, neither comes frequently
or we do not react in a very strange way towards others then it is fine and
normal. Sometimes sadness comes like a rapid mist. I believe humans can easily
take charge of any state of their mind and can learn easily how to overcome
sadness.
It’s
easy!!!! I can bet!!!
Can we control sadness?
We can
easily deal with sadness but before that we have to know, “why are we sad? What
are the factors that stop us from being happy? ” We have to ask this
question from ourselves. When we will identify the root cause then it will be
easy for us to get out of that situation.
If we
feel sad then we must try some of these;
- · Start thinking about something pleasant , it can be anything that can bring a smile on our face, we must think of good things in our lives , it will surely take us out of situation we are in.
- · We must call good friends and have fun with them.
- · We need to share our problem with family and get their help.
- · We must try to look around for some fun and that will distract thoughts.
Can you identify sad people around you???
Many
people around us are sad, all have depression in their lives — the intensity
varies, depending about state of mind and our control over it. Somehow we must
try to give such people a glimmer; it can change their life and make it much
better. They can come out of misery with just a little help and their lives can
be turned from hell to a blessing. Reaction of different people is different
when they are sad, some become very aggressive and some turn their anger and
sadness inward and in this way they are making their life more critical. Some
people are always sad, without realizing the fact that they are actually always
looking at any unhappy event that have occurred in their life.
Can we do something???
In such situation one rarely thinks about doing something
that can calm nerves, give them some relaxation and enjoyment, even if they
only visit a nearby park, they can figure out a remarkable change in their
behavior.
We do
not even think to take time and observe nature; it’s just like, we think, why
we should bother ourselves????? They do not take chance to enjoy any
moment of peace coming their way, they do not feel contentment in their lives,
there is no pleasure at all, they just feel worthy of sitting in front of
television, going and collecting pop corn to eat during programs and prefer
raiding their kitchen and refrigerator, they end up with not only
complaining about sadness but also about over weight, that makes their feeling
more bitter. Their condition gets worse than getting better. They think
something have gone wrong. They are actually leery of trying something new;
they think camping in their TV lounge can reveal them. But the case is not like
that. They need a motivation they must not numb themselves.
'Work together.'"
'Work together.'"
If we are clear about our need and desires then it can give us a clue to
fix things.
Let's be delightful again:
1. We must rediscover the lost Joy in our lives, this is very
important that we change our styles of living. Harmony can spill over our lives
with the help of family and friends. We can be in a place where we always
wanted to be with each other’s support.
2. We must change the way how we think and see the world, it
will certainly not occur over night, this will take time but the moment we will
decide to see world as an optimist we will start getting its fruits.
3. When we are sad, no matter how we feel, we must try to go
somewhere, where we can see people walking, children playing, and
enjoying, we will feel relaxed. It will open a way of joy to life. We will
notice life is going on all around us.
We can
easily take control of our feelings and emotions:
·
Do not feel if you are giving
up, try to stand and fight.
·
Do not feel if you are pushed
with the wall having no way to run or move, remember where there is will there
is a way.
·
Do not feel hopelessness;
figure out for ways to beat sadness.
·
Clearly monitor the thoughts
flooding your mind.
·
Do not think that whatever
you do, nothing will work.
·
Do not feel like if you
cannot be happy again.
·
Do not think about all those
things that you cannot get, try to think about blessings of your life.
·
Do not feel that everybody in
this world is having some conspiracy against you.
·
Do not isolate yourself; try
to seek help from your family and friends that can take you away from
hopelessness.
·
Do not think that you have
tried everything to make you feel better, look around and try to find something
different.
·
Do not feel that you cannot
mend relations; hopelessness will not help you make your relationship better, try
to change something in life.
·
Do not feel that you cannot
live without something or someone; surely you can, were you not living when you
had no introduction to something special you are desperate for.
You can
try any of these to change misery in happiness;
·
Try to be the part of
activities that include helping others.
·
Try to study some
inspirational stuff from great writers, it will affect your thought and give
you a new thought to look in life from a new prospective.
·
Try to learn to appreciate
some good stuff around you.
·
Try to learn to praise and to
love
·
Try to remain out of conflicts and disagreements.
·
Try to appreciate the moment
you are living in.
·
Try to be yourself!!!
Your life will always be like you want
it to be. Sadness, happiness, anger, aggression, excitement these are emotions
and are within us because of a natural phenomena. We must always keep our
hearts and mind open to see a clear picture and discover something new .Try to
make use of every moment and try to live every moment of your life as you never
know, where the journey will end. Life is beautiful do not try to make it
miserable at all.
Live it and Feel
like living!!!!

It is easy to say to make oneself happy in times of sadness and depression but doing it practically is a hard thing. All we can do is to ask from Almighty Allah for help in times of depression.
