I want to participate in myLot but most of the time, my negative emotions hinders me to do so. It’s hard to write when you’re feeling down. You feels like your heart is so heavy. You feels like your mind is taking an unending quiz, having question marks all the time. Your body is feeling tired and helpless causes by a stressful work and weather that makes you sweat. I’m just glad that I was able to make this one posted. Have you feel the same before?

Yes, we all feel this way sometimes, it is a part of being human and living life. Another part of living life though is making choices and decisions. You have to decide to be happy and choose not to allow your feelings to dictate your living experience. All those question marks you feel are living in your brain exist because they are allowed to. Make up your mind to do an activity or task that gets you out of this mindset and do all you can to stay focused. At first the focusing aspect will be truly difficult but as they say practice makes perfect! Just don't give up trying to be happy and eventually you'll randomly realize, huh I feel really good today, not at all like last week. Good luck and try to smile, you never know who is looking and may be inspired by your smile.

Hi! It maybe just normally happening in one's life but it will never be forever like this. I know it will get better, in fact I was now feel better, it maybe just a depression that I felt that day. Thank you for helping and lifting up other people's mind and heart. Have a blessed day. I'm now smiling.

Participating in mylot is always at your leisure. If you are not feeling up to it, then save your participation for latter. You want to have discussions, responses, and comments that convey your thoughts and feelings without emotional/physical distractions. I do not always feel like participating in mylot. At times I have felt like you, tired, helpless, and stressed out. When I do, mylot takes a backseat until I can get myself in a state to participate again.

Hi, friend, we all have moments when we are feeling down. Sometimes it's hard to understand why because it may be a combination of different reasons. Anyway, myLot is a place where you can share tour feelings with other users and find friends. If you can say something more specific, you could get useful tips. Keep posting and responding to discussions and just relax.

Aw, I'm sorry that you're feeling down. I believe that there are such topics as Depression, Bipolar, etc. on myLot.
Maybe adding interests such as those would help you find friends who have similar issues. It can really help to chat with others who have certain problems.
In fact, it was on this website several years ago that someone helped me to realize that I was in fact not only bipolar, but also schizoprenic.
Good luck to you! I hope you find happiness. :)

I do the opposite.
When I am feeling down, I come here and mylot.
I want to drain all my emotions responding to topics that I can relate with my emotions.
That helps me a lot and also gives me a little extra earning (not bad)

I actually think the opposite, that negative emotions really cause the best to come out of me when I write. Because I really do in fact hold absolutely nothing back when my emotions are rather turbulent. Whether or not this is a good thing or a bad thing, it really does depend right on the post in question at the post at hand. At least it does for me but it's lead to some interesting work.
I think that a lot of the times, I can see why negative emotions can really hinder a person. But as a writer, any emotions whatsoever can really be something that can spin into something great. Really there are just something about being able to channel each and every emotion into something, stringing the words into something. Still I really can see why people would have a problem.

Hi,
I think you are in the right place where you could share your feelings more openly. Do not le the negative emotions take place but think in the positive lines of making new friends here, posting informative and descriptive responses, try inter commenting on the discussions of your interest – I have tried it and I find most of the veteran mylotters are very friendly as well as encouraging too. May be some hesitations make you hold yourself, relieve yourself from such thinking and just rock on! Happy lotting and happy thinking too.

hi friend,
well i would like you to suggest that you should learn to share your feelings with some one or the other, at least not in public forum if you do not like.
you should learn to make yourself express at its best in order to let your emotions out of your heart and so that you can gain some mental peace.
Make an attempt to share whatever comes to your mind on mylot if you feel so because i have learn if you express in whatever way you like,you can feel relieved some way or the other and can attain some mental peace.if you have problem in expressing on public forum , you can write dairy and can share your thoughts over there. or the best is to make a good trust worthy friend who can understand you and can give you the best of the advice and support.
Everything will be fine.

MyLot should actually lift your spirit rather than bring you down. See how long these negative emotions stay with you. If it is just a day,then it is just part of normal life. If it is ongoing and you feel depressed every day you should consult a doctor. There are many reasons for depression and feeling down. You may need medication or you may just be fatigued and need to exercise and eat properly. Check it out.

i feel same sometime, it is better to not respond than getting negative comeents from mylotters and getting negative marking as well.
why would any fell heavy heart, sweating etc, that is really weird situation, I think you should check out your health and try to reduce work load as well.
