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.

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.
Feeling sad after sex?
Well this is a normal feeling for 2 reasons. Number one, it's a release of hormones which can often affect how a person feels. Completely normal. It gets better when you have sex with someone you truly love and when it feels right. Number two, there may be something subconscious going on. Perhaps you believe sex before marriage is wrong and you don't realize you think it is wrong because it is burried too deep. This can often come from the belief you grew up with. Perhaps the sex reminds you of an old girl friend or someone you miss. Perhaps you feel vulnerable of being hurt. Perhaps there was some kind of traumatic experience. the best thing to do is to not think about it.

Why do I feel bad after sex?
Normal is an interesting word. It tends to mean usual or common. It is pretty common, yes. But not healthy. If you feel guilty, it is because you are engaging in sex that goes against your heart and soul’s desires? In that case, if you are harming yourself or others, it’s a sign you need to change your sexual activities.But I think you just mean you're not doing anything wrong but you still feel guilty afterwards. A couple of things are likely going on. One is that the rush of neurochemicals released with orgasm wear off, and you feel lower than before. Like a spike and crash sort or thing.But what is quite common from an energy perspective, is that people have been “feeding” their sex chakra (desires) with negative emotions. This could be anger, guilt, shame, aggression, humiliation or even grief. So basically you condition your sexual response to happen from whatever is the negative emotion. In the future, you don't need much to reinforce that loop. All you need is a reminder of that emotion, and you feel turned on, which feels good, reinforcing the negative emotion loop. After orgasm, you have the refractive period of no desire, when you are left with only the negative emotion, which alone doesn't feel good at all. This can be difficult to correct. It is a problem for so many people. But conditioned responses can be unconditioned. It takes times and effort on your part, and would likely require Pranic psychotherapy and hypnotherapy. With all of these combined, though, you can enjoy sex free of negative feelings.
Always feel bad/sad after sex?
So I've only had sex with someone I've dated for a long time, and someone who i would hook up with occasionally ( not when i was dating the guy tho) but i always get excited for sex and i enjoy it and have a lot of fun but afterwards i just feel wrong and sad, idk how to explain the feeling in detail but its kinda like a numb feeling? I'm not religious and my family isn't either and theres no one in my life telling my i shouldn't have sex because I'm in my 20's and sex isn't a bad thing…
Why do people feel sadness after a death?
It is very understandable for people to feel sadness after a death. And this is because there is a termination of a situation that used to be our reality. If someone close to us dies, then we remember all the times we spend together and its natural to want to grieve. Grieving is a part of life and in fact there are some very distinct phases we go through before we reach acceptance. This is how the human psyche works and it is the same to all of us. Sometimes people grieve because there are some unresolved issues. For instance somebody that hurt us dies before the conflict is solved. They die and in a way take with them the strife and you cannot do anything about that. Imagine an abused child that the parent dies and didnt have the time to get an apology. Death also makes us comprehend our own mortality and this is scary. It causes sadness. It is also a wake up call not to be complacent. We see someone we know die and we realise that we spend our life here doing meaningful things and so we mourn the life that we could have had. I hope this helped a little!
Why do I feel sad after smoking marijuana?
As a former marijuana smoker, I will tell you that it's a sign you should probably stop. Many people don't believe this, but THC, the drug in marijuana, is a downer. Even though you will feel pretty happy and high, it brings you down pretty bad in some cases when the effects wear off. Similar to a hangover from alcohol. I honestly say you should stop. There's no point in smoking it if you feel that way after you smoke.
I feel sad after sex/making out with my girlfriend?
After every time I have sex with my girlfriend - I get unbelievably sad. Like, I get the feeling of wanting my space and not being around her, at the the same time, though, I simply wanna talk to her. Just talk about our families, days, or just random stuff, but that never happens. Her words are just "why are you so cute?" and/or "I want you." This usually ends up in us making out or having sex. I don't mind her saying that - I care about her and like her a lot- but it gets...redundant after a while and I wanna have a regular conservation with her. It was never like this when we were best friends - she has also liked me for over a year. I felt like we could be friends forever. We would have talks of our future, we made a deal we'd get married if we were still single when we were older, and just of so many things, but now it's just smalltalk with no meaning behind it. And when I do talk to her, it seems to me, she doesn't listen. Her responses are usually the giveaway to me. I really like and enjoy her company; as i enjoy her family's company too. All-in-all how can I fix this? I need help!
