how do you do it?

I have been through that stage and for sure it ain't easy. I surrendered everything to God. I have faith in Him that He works in mysterious ways and will never leave me when things don't work out right. Condition your heart and mind that nothing in this world can let you down. Keep yourself busy with work so you will forget of other people who has put you down. Appreciate quiet moments and look at the beautiful things in life. Good luck.;-)

It's not easy when you're young... you care very much about what your friends say and seek and desire others' approval. I've been finding that its getting easier, now that I'm 34, to not give naysayers very much thought. You can be called names, told that you're not good at something and that you will never have this or that... but the only person's opinion that really matters is your own.

unfortunately there are many people that will kick you when your down....i have been through this many times in my 36 years, and have adopted the simple philosophy in life, and that philosophy is F**K IT! Dont let any one tell you anything that will get you down tell them to shove it and go on with life. Your life is what you make it

i normally tell myself that people who puts you down - are the ones who have issues with themselves.. i try to listen to what they say.. see if it carries any truth.. if too many people say the same thing, then i seriously need to do some improvements, but if only a particular group of people have that opinion.. i try to just 'learn from it'..

There are people who never able to pick themselves up once you knock 'em down. Some people are able to get up but then you say boo!, and they get back down. But there are people who can easily stand up, as fast as you knock 'em down, that you can hardly notice they were down. The way i see it, you belong to the second group of people. Bear in mind that there are many bullies in life. They are here for a purpose. And that is to make you stronger. Just learn to form the habit - to pick yourself up everytime someone puts you down. You will notice, after several ups and downs, that you are becoming stronger. And you will be amazed to find yourself that you have become one of those people in the third group. A Fighter!
