How To Deal With Sadness

What should I do to deal with sadness?

First of all do NOT commit suicide. Suicide will not give you the relief you seek. You will not experience the end of your suffering or receive the sentiments of those you leave behind because you will be dead! The last experience of your life will be your misery. Again, you will not find relief from suicide.

It sounds to me as if you are dealing with a serious depression. Depression is a chemical imbalance in your brain that disables you from processing the stress of life in a constructive way. There is NOTHING wrong with you as a person. You just have an illness that can be cured.

Please speak with your parents or an adult at school about the way you feel. They can help you go to a psychologist who will give you the necessary treatment to make the depression go away. You can also see a psychiatrist to talk about your feelings and find solutions to make your life less stressful (and you are allowed to have these meeting without your parents in the room). If you ever feel as though your treatment isn't doing the trick, or you don't feel comfortable with your doctors then speak up and switch. You are an individual and you deserve to have a treatment that caters exactly to your needs.

Please remember that you will not feel this way forever. Being a teenager is extremely difficult. Some of the feelings you are experiencing are part of being the age that you are. I distinctly remember the frustration of being a teen and thinking that I'd carry that confusion and anger and lack of total control for the rest of my life. And I promise you there is an "other side." Someday you will be an adult and it will feel so much better. In the meantime keep in mind that feelings are not facts. You may feel that spending time on friends or hobbies is exhausting or irritating, but consider that it is just your depression manipulating your emotions. It is still more than possible to have fun and make accomplishments, and life still holds opportunity for positive experiences.

How to deal w/ the regret & sadness?

Oh Cat, you sweet thing. This too shall pass.

I have been there. Totally the same situation as you, just 40 years ago and no internet for online sex dating. Just the old go to the bar and pick up a broad dating.

One thing I remember a psychologist said to me during my separation.... Even though my husband wanted the divorce, it was still a "loss" for him. It was a death of a dream for him as well, even though he was the instigator and initiator.

You were right to ask 100% of him. Do not back down from this NEED of yours. Sure it is sad right now as you are lonely and your self esteem in the toilet, but you are not asking too much.

Take this time to build yourself up. Remodel the house, and make it your own. Get a new hair doo, the way YOU want it, and not the way you think your husband liked you. Get some new sexy clothes. Put away the matronly marriage clothes. Smile! A huge weight has been lifted off your shoulders. There is so much that happens to us when our husbands cheat. It hurts us down to the core. That is HIS problem now, not yours. He cheated for his reasons. Chances are you did not do anything to promote it. He just had the wandering eye.

As for being OLD??? 30 is the new 20. This is the time for exploration. Take some night courses. Find a hobby where you can mingle with others with your same interest. Enjoy female friendships. These are all things us women put to the side when we marry thinking we have to devote our whole life. Fact is we need to keep our interests up so that we remain interesting.

I'm 54 now. Married 10 years, and 10 very happy years. I took my time. Built my career, raised my children, and then found Mr. Right after my baby turned 18. He is NOTHING like my first (who by the way is on wife # 5 due to continued infidelity) goes to show you.... it wasn't me man!

SMILE a BIG SMILE,

How can/should I deal with sadness?

Go native & find what in life really matters. Basic laws every human needs or can agree on: don't; lie to me, cheat me, steel from me, rape me, treat me like you wouldn't want, or kill me.Basic laws govern basic needs.Needs: air, water, food, tools, shelter/love, transportation & knowledge.Wants are: assuming & expecting things outside ourselves, will go our way, on our terms.Yet, all that doesn't come from within, but comes from outside ourselves, we have no control over it. Therefore it can't always go our way, & leads to negative thinking. As you're experiencing. If it does go our way that should be a bonus!Actions (or things), make us think, & Usually it's a groomed assumption, or stereotypes taught to us. That thought’s positivity or negativity, is the only thing that can be changed.That -/+ thought evokes an emotional (spiritual/biochemical) response equally positive or negative to our thought. That emotional response, comes out in physical actions or words without will power, that makes others think & feel... repeat. With will power, & maturity one can learn to control emotional responses.Example: my actions are words, how you interpret my words, is how you "think about" or relate to them. Depending on, if you relate them to a, positive or negative thought, results in a positive or negative feeling or emotion. The emotional response will, create a positive or negative idea, action &/or words based on the preexisting response, or a reaction.Change your view of things, & think about life differently without comparing yourself to others, but instead comparing yourself to your own past.

How do u deal with stress and sadness?

Good question, I am especially sad and stressed tonight. First, if you can identify what is making you sad and so stressed, that can be helpful, second, I find that exercising is very helpful. I need to force myself to do it but when I do everything seems to look a little brighter. I am sorry you feel you are boring your friends, if they are real friends they won't be bored with you. Also, answering others questions about stuff like this actually helps. I know others feel the same way and I am not alone. It helps when I can show some kindness and care to someone else, so I want you to know that I care and I understand how you feel. I know you can make things better. Therapy is not a bad idea, it has helped me in the past. Also, I read some passages out of the Bible everyday, today I read "Do not be afraid, I the Lord your God will hold your right hand, I will be with you"

Someone very dear to me ... and to many of you here ... has suffered the most tragic of loses. "STFU Donnie/Michael Vick" (Darren) lost his 16 year old daughter Thursday night in a car accident. She was an amazing kid with a good heart who was loved by everyone who knew her.

The funeral is tomorrow (12/23) which would have been her 17th birthday. I just wanted you to be able to send Darren some words from the heart to maybe ease his pain and give his heart a lift. So many of you here are SO good at doing just that. I had his blessing to post this Q ... and I will be sure he sees all your responses.
