What do you do when everything is going so wrong!?

Question

heartbroken, unhappy at work, struggling with postgrad studies!

Answer 1

I find that watching the movie swingers helps.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117802

We've all been where Jon Favreaus been, that feeling that we're the bottom of the barrel.  But like they say in that movie, everyday the pain goes away little by little until one day you wake up and its gone.

Just know that there are a million of people in the world with the same plight, but its just a transient condition.  The highest highs, the lowest lows and we'll live through them all.  Someday you'll look back and smile at how hard things were and how great things will one day be.

Answer 2

I think this is the one greatest thing of human. We can adapt ourselves to any situation.

Here are the things that I did.

1. find the reasons why everything to be this way.

2. find the way out, if you can find, it's good but if not.....

3. Accepted what you have and look at it in the different way.

Answer 3

you rock out to some five finger death punch and smoke a few bowls  :]

Answer 4

I take a walk. I know it sounds simple but it can really put things in perspective. The exercise relieves stress and the solitude and quiet and/or nature sounds will soothe your mind and make you feel better. And with it being summer right now, you'll soak up Vitamin D from the sun (the only way to naturally get it!) and feel better. I usually don't have a plan as to where I'm going to walk or how long I'm going to be gone, but I do take a notebook because it can also sometimes help to write things down, like to make a list of goals that you feel are attainable and make a plan to reach them. Or you can walk to somewhere private and comfortable and write down all your feelings to help calm your nerves.

Answer 5

Don't dwell on the fact that things are so screwed up.

Find out how it got that way.

Being a victim is bad enough, being an unhappy one makes it worse.

Find a way to laugh at your situation and then get over it.

Look for the silver lining.

Envision how it would be better and plan ahead to follow that route.

Understand that you are able to change the situation and do it, really, just let go of the bad stuffs and move on.

Answer 8

I usually look carefully where this guides me to. I often experienced when everything seemed to grumble down in the past it showed me that a new chapter in my life was about to start.

Just survive through this stage and prepare.

Answer 9

O.K....

get on my knees, and pray....

I have found that it not only brings me peace, but I know Jesus   will hear my prayer.

Next day! 100% things get better, answers come, help sometimes...but also...I know I have somewhere to turn too.

But thats what I do......      :)

Answer 10

go out and take a break

Answer 11

I remember that everything is just the way it should be, right now.

Answer 12

First pray, then look at everything you have to deal with.

Try to keep in mind, the things you have no control over should be set aside. You can't do anything about things that are out of your control so, deal with these issue a day at a time.

Next don't sweat the little things. If you look at all of your problems, some may be smaller then you might take them so, if you can shove them aside then do so.

It sounds like you have a lot of studying to do so, If I were you, I would look at the importance of my studying so I could pass the grade. This in return will keep you from feeling so sad over losing your friend. Relationships can end as fast as they started sometimes when you are young. I am quite sure you will bounce back quickly. Maybe this person didn't really deserve you in the first place so, you can look at the breakup as their loss.

Good luck and I hope you bounce back quickly. Remember many many many good people have gone through this experience. With this being said, that's exactly what you should chalk this up as. EXPERIENCE. This is how we learn good and or bad.

Answer 13

This will not last forever. Happy becomes sad and sad becomes happy. Ride the storm.

Answer 14

Accept it. Get over it. Live.

Answer 15

Yes, When I had reached that point in my life. I had remained silent but concentrated working hard after figuring out the best solution to work for. I may double or even tripple the effort, as far as I can, to put things back on their right track again. The best thing I did was I remained silent and ignored all the unpleasant things that could have made me possibly insane. Then do something about to improve my present situation. During those times everything may seemed to be thwarted, maybe even most of your treasured friends won't be able to understand your downfall, or it is even maybe some of those you have trusted had all turned their back against you. So I may just have one option. To drop all the negative influences in life and connect with those people or things that you know will throw a better solution for help in such delicate and trying disposition in that particular time of life.

Sometimes we just have to pause too, For much deeper reflection, to find within ourselves the better way we can elevate ourselves from such difficult matters in time.

Answer 16

Heart broken - find a new love

Unhappy at work - find a new job

There is a solution for every problem.

Find it and get over the problem.

Answer 17

If Go, Go, Go does not work,

try "Stop."

Socrates said it like this: "Know Thyself." And know thyself is the art of stop.

Google "Gospel Enigma". That e-book will explain the art of stop in Western terms.

Answer 18

If it is really bad i try to reread a book i found a few years ago by Richard Carson called Taming Your Gremlin.

Inside you will find a little mantra that i try to repeat every day.

I change, not by trying to become something that I'm not.

I change, by becoming fully aware of how i am.
