Random Sadness

there are many times i feel sad. but for some obvious reason though. i do understand we just get sad and we can't explain why when it seems there is nothing wrong with our lives. but that seldom happens. it is harder to deal with sadness with no apparent reason than those sadness we know the root cause of it. i don't know actually what to do when i am sad. but thankfully at least the internet is there to take away my mind on the problems.

Hi there, whatever you are feeling was not bad. It n happen to anyone. It is a FEELING that intimacy, understanding, friendship, and acceptance are missing from one's life. It is a FEELING of isolation or separation from others, a FEELING of being all alone. We need to realize that loneliness is nothing more than a feeling. After all, you are not your arms or legs, for they are just parts of your body. Similarly, you are not your feelings, which are just parts of your psyche. When I feel like this..I just listen to music, talk to my hubby and then go for a long walk.

Well, i usually am so happy each day , but sure that as you had one, i`m habing bad days too. But i`m the only one that knows that ! As soon as i meet a person, i`m happy immediatly . I don`t like others to see me sad . Even i`m not happy, i`m trying to be . Just if i really have a problem , i can`t be happy, but in all other situations , i really pass on from sadness to hapyness . I think that the secret it`s in you , but you should eat after you wake up some natural juice . A full glass of natural juice ( preferable made by you ) it will make you be happy every single day ! Just try it for a week . the next week , you`ll see the difference !

Are you on your period? lol! i feel bummed every now and again...i'm hormonally challenged so its normal... One of my professors had a trick to deal with this. On a scale from 1-10 how sad are you? Lets say you choose a 3 that means you're sadder than most...Well, go around in a forced smile greeting people around you.. At least the amount of points you care to raise your score...in the case of your sadness being a 3 you should AT LEAST greet, with a smile, 7 people. Say kind words, be encouraging... Well, normally if you smile to someone they will smile back and return the kind words you chose to express. After your greeting fest, rate your sadness again. YOur sadness should have improved. This tends to work well. It demonstrates the power of words and positive affirmations. TRY IT... ITS FUN, to BE FUN!

Yes, it's part of being human. It's probably a good thing that you are forced to be happy because sometimes you have to force things on yourself to improve your mood. Or, at least that's what i've found.

Aw, I hope by the time I write this you are feeling better. Yes, I do sometimes just 'get sad'. I say this, but I suppose I have a few triggers I could identify,for me a very big thing that sets me off is homesickness - I moved from England to America to get married and sometimes it just hits me, or sometimes its around an event, like when my nephew was born, or when my best friend got married and I couldn't be there. But sometimes you don't know why. The thing I have learned is yes, get your practical stuff done, work, kids, whatever, but if you can take some time to just sit and feel it. It DOES pass and I find if I sit down and just let it out or comfort myself somehow, its just a way of taking care of myself and saying its ok to take a little down time. Some things that help me? Well, the bed, choccie and a movie sounds good! Writing is a good one for me, especially if its 'about' something that I am sad, I write down the feelings and it sort of clarifies things and helps me let it go. Or, if its the homesick thing I will watch some English TV (usually Doctor Who or anything involving Christopher Eccleston!) and that cheersme up...lol Its ok to take a sad break! Hope you're feeling better x

Are you feeling lonely? Because that's a factor which has been getting me down lately. All my friends are busy either with their jobs or further studies whereas I'm stuck in my house waiting for my joining date next year. I don't even get a phone call or SMS from any of them. It's like living on an island all alone. I also don't have a girlfriend, which isn't a big issue at all, but you know, when the mind is lonely, it becomes weak, and these odd thoughts also creep in. But what I then do is to crank up my computer, have a good session of playing computer games or watching some movies or I dump all of this and just sit down with a real good BOOK. Believe it or not, a book will keep you absorbed like nothing else does. I do try to keep myself motivated all the time, just blocking all the factors causing my sadness in my mind. Analyse your mind. There must be some subconscious sadness there which keeps popping up now and then. There's always a reason. You'll have to discover that by yourself. And when you've done so, you'll yourself know the remedy to that. Cheers.

Ya I feel that way sometimes too. I asked about the same to a friend of mine, she said thats what the girls call mood swings. I enquired whether it happens in guys' case too and she said "why not ?" Guess maybe you are having these "mood swings" too. Hope you get over them soon. I like to sleep when i feel sad. Ya it does sound funny , but hey, thats what I am ...

Yes, I have had such random sadness and I know what comes upon you when you are in these blues. This is nothing but temporary imbalance of our humour. you are not sure as to what leads you to this seat. But you know you are not happy and going nuts, nothing soothes either. What to do in such situation? Just think not too much and go fora little outing and if possible sit grumpy for sometime and have a nap if possible. and see that is gone.

it happens to me a lot, especially recently. however i don't think there is no reason for the sadness. to myself for now i feel difficult to find a job. so everytime i got refused from my job application i felt down. i know i should be strong but the sad feeling can not be controled. in a couple of days when i was home alone i can feel the sad suddenly,then i felt no interest to anything. I'm luckier than you in that i don't need to hide my sadness. I just need time to recover or forget unhappiness for time being. i don't have very good advice for you, i really feel sorry for it. just want to say be positive, believe in yourself. life would be better. best regards.

It happens to me sometimes. At times, it's a whole lot worse than that. Once there was supposed to be a birthday party of my friend on that day, later at night, and as the evening comes I suddenly had a bad mood even though I was fine earlier that day. My ways are weirder when it comes to dealing with this, though, lol. It's like I had to talk to myself for a while as if vexing myself out of that bad mood and to convince myself that things will feel better again later on. Somehow it usually just does. As I met up with friends later on at the party, we all had fun (though in the beginning I wasn't), in the end I had to think that this stuff happens sometimes. But that's just me, though. :P

Hi, I am sorry that you are so down. There is so much to be happy about, starting with the fact that you are alive and have a chance to fix whatever is ailing you. To answer your question, no I don't ever just feel sad for no reason. However, I do feel sad sometime, but I know what has caused the feelings. Sometimes it takes awhile to let go of the sadness, so I fake the entire day if need be. I work at an elementary school with K-5th graders and they think I am really cool because I seem happy. Even the staff will say to me, "I have never seen you without a smile on your face." If they only knew what I was really feeling,about personal matters, they would be surprised. I say, if you cannot let it go, then you must cover it up for the children that you are babysitting. Children, sometimes, can detect the true feelings, but you should aleast try to cover and deal with whatever is the problem after you finish babysitting. You may want to talk to someone if this is how you feel (sad, without cause)often. Cheer up! Life is a gift, enjoy it.
