What do you do when you feel sad?
If I am sad, I write. If that doesn't work, I read. If that doesn't work either, I go for a walk. If even that fails to ameliorate my state, I talk to one of five best friends.If even that fails to disperse my sadness, I sing and dance on my favourite songs. And, as a last resort when nothing works, I go out for a movie, or for food or for both.But, whatever I do, I don't sit idle, doing nothing. And, sadly, that is what most people do when they are sad. And, that is a blunder. That never helps.When we are doing something, our mind too is engaged into that activity. But, when a person does nothing, their mind is all freed up, thus unoccupied.Ergo, it keeps repeating the same thoughts that made the person sad in the first place. The mind plays those thoughts again and again and again in a loop.And, this further reinforces the sadness into the depths of our head and heart. And, this only exacerbates the condition. It turns us more and more sad and anxious.It captivates and fetters the person in a murky and shady condition which doesn't allow the person to get over the tension. And, that further amplifies sadness.Thus, the key to trash off those sad thoughts is to keep your mind occupied with something.Or anything, but not nothing. Bliss!Edit: Fellow Quoran Rhishita Jha raised a really good point in the comments section. Here is that, and my response to the same just for more clarity:Love,Shilanjan
I am alone and sad. What can I do?
Please do not do anything. Please be with them. Those feelings are helpful in bringing change within you. So better welcome them with open hands. In fact, they are the indicator that through them improvement can be brought about. They are just silver lining in dark sky. I suggest please feel aloneness, sadness. Be with them. After all, they are indicator of your mind. In fact, they are your energy. So please be associated with them. See yourself their nature,look, appearance, keeping a little distance from them.Aloneness shows that you are missing someone. It says that you are depending on others for your living. Is it not a lesson to learn ? It is possible to remain alone. Then one feels strong, independent. The self-confidence grows, as there is no outside interference.I must say that it is an opportunity to avail. You will be able to see yourself and feel your strength and weakness. Please go ahead. A new morning is arriving.

I am 26 alone and sad. What can I do?
32 and hurt and alone. Thats me right there. So i guess i do have a few things to tell you. I don’t know how many break ups or rejections you have been through but this is your to-do list in general.Develop yourself. Whats the one thing you have always wanted to learn…one skill you have wanted to master. When are alone you are owner and master of your own time. Make use of it. Guitar lessons, a foreign language so on and so forth. Theres no one judge you so let your hobby be as quirky as it can. Who cares right?Hit the gym. And i mean with a vengeance. Being alone and seeing the world as a sum of people who are with someone usually destroys self esteem before anything else. So take it all out at the gym. Get a toned body and admire yourself in the mirror. You are already in the top 1 pctle of people…cheerios!! And on top of that after exhausting yourself at the gym you will barely have any energy to wallow in self pity and stare at the ceiling at night.Don’t hold back. I can say from experience that being alone especially after multiple heartbreaks puts you in a shell. But that does not mean you are incapable of a relationship…let no one tell you that. Always keep yourself in a positive frame of mind in that regard. Bad partners or relationships don’t mean that you should just shut shop forever. It usually just means your time is yet to come.Work harder. This is the time when you can earn your stripes at work. Give it your best shot. Excel.Shine. Work hours that your colleagues can’t. Turn your time into a money minting device.Indulge yourself. Give yourself the things you always wanted. The trinkets and stuff which can be a strain on the wallet when you are not alone. Retails therapy works like a charm.Hope some of this helps.
What should I do if I am very sad and it feels like life is over for me?
I can give you a long and boring speech that I probably won't get right and you probably won't listen to. Because I don't know you. I am not in a position to fully empathize with your situation. But I can and do empathize with the pain you're feeling.I remember the periods of my depression. I remember not being able to get out of bed. I needed people to talk to. But I wished that someone would stop with the holier than thou, self righteous bullshit. I wished people would stop judging me. So I'm going to tell you three things I wish someone told me. Start seeing a therapist. Find yourself a good psychotherapist. That was the turning point for me. I went to see someone after I had hit rock-bottom. Now I wish I had gone to see her sooner. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going and still do are my sessions of therapy. There's a way out that you're not seeing. If you find the right person she will you find a way out. Start documenting things. Depression is the enemy. Know your enemy better. Document your feelings of low and try to analyze what's triggering them. Basically, document your thoughts in a journal. Write down two things you're thankful for everyday. No matter how much you think your life sucks there's always things you're thankful for. I thought my life sucked. But when I forced myself to think of things I have that I couldn't do without and you'll be surprised how many I found. That can be things that are elemental like food or sustenance money. Or things which are abstract or momentary. Document these things. It's a long way to go. And these are just the starting points. Get help, and you can turn this around. Another thing, do not be in denial. I was in a state of denial for a long time. I don't need help. I'm fine! No you're not. And you shouldn't have to go through this alone.

I am sad all the time. How do I cheer up?
You don't say what you are sad about so it is difficult to advise. If you are sad about something that has happened in your life then remember the good times before whatever is making your sad happened. If there is nothing in particular causing this feeling then it sounds like you are clinically depressed. I have been through both. I was sad when my girlfriend died but time healed that. I still feel sad when I think about her, but then happy when I remember what a brilliant person she was and how lucky I was for the time we had together. A few years later I felt down and simply could not be bothered about anything. It had nothing to do with her I just did not know why I felt that way. My family convinced me to see my doctor and he diagnosed me with depression, With the help of the medication he prescribed my mood lifted and now I am fine and no longer need medication. If there is a reason for your feelings it does get better but it takes time. Earlier this year my mum died so the whole family is sad, it is taking time but is gets easier every day. If you don't have an explanation then see your doctor.
What should we do when feeling sad?
Hi my dear. I have empathy with you. For many days and no apparent reason I can feel a deep sadness. It comes when we sense a loss of something that use to be there. Have you lost someone or something?When it is super quiet I sense the feeling deep within and with reflection I realised that it is the soul within that feels abandoned by us. So this is what I do. I reconnect with the child in me. There is an innocent part within that misses our attention just like a child a parent.Please bear with me if I suggest a game you play with yourself:Imagine you are the parent with all the responsibilities. Within you is a child that is shy and hiding but craves your love. What can you do to help it feel save and loved? Then do that for yourself. If you can and you have privacy write down what the child might want to say to you.It might sound out of the box but it helps me to reconnect with the child within and then the sadness goes away.Wishing you a wonderful reconnection so you can feel fulfilled and alive.The soul works in mysterious ways. If you sense the sadness there is hope and you hear the soft voice calling. Don't be scared. Many people are hearing the inner voice calling through sadness. Lots of love.
I turned 18 last week and now I'm sad.?
When you're a kid you always think that adults have everything figured out. That they just coast through life knowing what to do. The thing is, we don't. New things come up all the time and we sit and think, "what am I going to do?" ... "How do I deal with this?" That's part of being an adult. Trying to navigate through life, asking wiser people than you for advice and then putting on your big boy/girl pants and dealing with the situation. You're just afraid of the unknown. You're going into adulthood, having to move out, go to college and now get your life on track without the comfort and security of home. You'll be expected to pay bills, do your taxes, balance a checkbook and take care of yourself. It's normal to freak out at becoming an adult but realize that your parents have done it and their parents before them and so on and if they can do it, so can you. You will have your parents and others in your life to help guide you or answer questions. It's just your next journey. Instead of giving into the fear, you need to grab it by the horns and YOU dictate what happens. If you let those types of feelings consume you, they will eat you up, swallow you whole and your life will crash before your eyes. Besides having to deal with work and bills, you also get perks. Doing what you want, making your place how you want, eat what you want, stay up as late as you want... be excited and think about that.
