I have had ups years ago and they felt great. Now I have been on a down for some years now. How I am dealing with it is going to therapy. I am hoping that therapy will help me with my depression. I is very deep rooted. I do not want to get into the whole thing but believe me I am not having a great time these days.

Right now I think that we are coming out a really down part of my life. Just a month ago, my husband was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma and that is something that has been just as hard on me as it has been on him. At first, I felt like I was going through grief when we got the news. However, I found a community of people that have been through similar in their lives and hearing how they are doing with their lives makes me know that we are finally on our way back up the hill from the bottom.

Hi there, I guess ups and downs have always been part of our lives. No one is excused from experiencing real low times. As for me, I am feeling down and lonely right now. I am 25 years old and already an insulin dependent. I have acquired the illness from my dad who has been an insulin dependent for several years... as we all know, diabetes can be acquired or heridetary. I am injecting 15 units of insulin before breakfast and 5 units before dinner everyday. The insulin injection costs PHP 900 and it is only good for two weeks... Moreover, my family is expecting me to finish school next year. However, I still need to finish two more subjects which are only available on summer. i am scared of telling my parents about it as I know they would feel frustrated... sigh..... :( I hope and pray that God will give the courage and strength to tell them about my problem...

You are asking the wrong person! When I have my downs I am a complainer! I feel I am the only one who goes through what I am at the moment! I get angry! I get extremely frustrated! I sometimes do really stupid stuff! So as you can see I am better when I am on the ups! Lately I am in the downs! I need some ups right now!

This is the reality of human life and I believe there is no such thing smooth sailing in life, one time in life you will be happy and other time you will be sad, one time you will be rich and other time you will be sad, one time you have health and other time you will have sickness and this is life. Without this life, you are in heaven or a dream world.

If there's no downs it shouldn't be called life so I think everyone experienced downs.
I always occupy myself with all kind of activities so I won't constanly think of the things that would upset me.And I think it this way:"Since I'm in the worst situation right now,everything can just be better from now on."
And I will be thankful for all the bad thing I went throught because they made me a more mature and sophisticated person.

Ah, yes the downs! Many of those down through the years. I would usually worry myself sick and figure life was over as I knew it. When in all actuality it doesn't turn out to be as bad as I thought it would be at all. Yes, there have been downs and I feel I have learned quite abit from them.

I guess we face a certain challenge every other day and we have to deal with the downside of life quite often too. If I get into some situation that I don't like at all then I get upset in the beginning and feel really bad and then I try to deal with it by gathering all my strength and saying to my heart that everything will be fine soon. Though these words sound quite small but they have a huge impact on how you handle your stressful situation.

I think everyone of us have a fair share of ups and downs in their life. I can't denied that i don't have my ups and downs as well. But i am always trying my best to cope with the situation. Always patiently finding a way to solve the downs in life and i am sure you will see the brightness of life is coming your way. Have a nice day always...

I do not believe anyone can have full ups all their life. I have had my fair shares with the downs in my life and I have somewhat, I say somewhat because I am not perfect and have a tendency to allow the downs really get to me.
The only way I know how to survive the downs in my life is to take them as they come, grieve them and try my hardest to move forward.
When the ups come, though I do not forget about the downs because to me they are learning experiences, I tend to enjoy and appreciate them for as long as I can.

Yes our life is defined as a string of ups and downs.
I personally had downs and then the other unrequited love without parichie debts and loans but gradually everything was fine and now I can say that my life is a bit neat and beautiful and happy.
The most important thing is not to refuse to fight to the last not to let those downs to beat.
Do you mean to you.And remember one thing that always say is not important how many times you fall but how many times you can become successful again.Have a nice day!
