Feeling Lousy...

ummmmm...... I have not felt that lousy in years. I remember those times and they are not something i would ever want to go through ever again. what i do to not feel that way, is not to focus on the past or the future. I live in the moment of every day. when something happens i do my best to address it right then and there. not allowing it to become a part of my thought process all day long. I don't worry about the future because it is not here yet. i just try my best to focus on there here and right now

The time i will feel lousy is when everything is against me, like waiting very long for bus, wrong order for my food when it's already taking so long to be served, late for appointments and yet all sorts of things crops up.. ALL these can easily make me feel lousy, and i will always try to make myself feel better by going running.. But that's not the solution, because everything is like pre planned to make me feel lousy for the whole day.. Even while running, there will be predestarians on the pavements walking as if they own the whole pavement, refusing to move aside when i'm already on the side.. Or those who are in a group, that will be the worse, as they will pretend not to see me, and so i have no choice but to slow down for them instead.. Though my whole day is being spoil, but still i will feel good after my runs, because it sort of clear my mind, and think that i actually face all those scenarios very often, so why am i so bothered about it today.. MOst of the time, i will cool down and forget about everything ^_^

yes i believe all of us have felt lousy at some point of time. i think the last time i felt at my lousiest was when my mother was hospitalised. it was really worrying and there was nothing i could do. i felt so helpless and angry with myself. she has done so much for me and yet i couldn't do anything when she needs help the most. it was also draining as my job happened to be really demanding at that time. i had to go to work at 11pm, finish at 10am and go straight to the hospital to visit her. it took a lot out of me but thankfully my mother recovered. that in itself is enough to chase the feeling away. other times, i'll just go for a really good meal. by good i mean the food taste really good. my partner and i will drive 30 min just to have the meal we are craving for. it really work wonders at lifting my spirits. cheers ;p

I felt terribly lous a couple of months back. There was something I was not happy about in the home front. As such I kept a lot of things to myself. I may have confided here at myLot, but that did not make me feel much better since there were decisions to be made and it was all up to me. I really felt like running away but I have responsibilities. I was forced to explain myself and felt a little better but there are still things I want changed. I don't think you can understand what I'm saying though. When I think about the problem I have, I feel a little lousy but life has to go on...

I have been going through a really tough time in my personal life this past month alot of things had gone wrong and I just felt like the bad would never stop coming! Things have gotten tremendously better I still have my days where I get overwhelmed with it all but I try to just breathe and tell myself to take one thing at a time. I try to keep myself busy so I don't just sit and dwell on things that are bad or go wrong. A positivve attitude and thoughts really help. Also having amazing friends and family there for you 110%

when im feeling bad theres usually nothing that i can do that will satisfy me. But i guess taking a walk, listening to music could make me feel better in some way

Oh, man! My life has had some really, REALLY bad periods. I'm usually a very optimistic person but have had some horrible things happen to me that I just couldn't find anything to be optimistic about. I couldn't possibly pinpoint the lousiest time in my life. When this has happened to me I've always handled it the same way. I like to be by myself, like a wounded animal. I'll go off and not answer my phone and try to avoid people for awhile. Once I've been 'down' long enough (which is typically not very long at all), I'll start to think of ways to overcome whatever it is that has made me lose my optimism. I'll start to do things that make me happy, even if I'm not too happy when I start doing them. After awhile, I really do start to feel better. Usually, it begins with going outside and just being with nature for awhile. I've actually learned quite a few lessons by watching nature and how it overcomes obstacles. Sometimes nature will bore right through obstacles and other times it goes around them. I'll start to think, can I avoid this problem by going around it or should I deal with it head-on? Once I have my answer, I feel better immediately and begin to pull myself up and deal with the situation.
