Kind Of Down

Hi ! You maybe too exhausted with so many responsibilities and issues in family . Sometimes also we felt some sadness where i we can not even tell as to where it came from , Science can explain this , accordingly this is due to some hormonal imbalance. Don't worry too much for that , it happens to everybody such as me sometimes even in whole week i am also so sad. Remedy for that is to go out and have some shopping or eating session. It will divert your sad emotion or you can do aslo things which will make you easily smile.

Pick yourself up girl. I get that way sometimes here as well. Guess its part of life.

I would say that life is a series of ups and downs. Happiness has to have sadness or it would not exist, and we would all become neutral and life then would be unbearable. As a therapist and Zen practitioner, throughout my career I have supported my clients in connecting totally with the down times, as an attempt to resist by distraction or "trying to cheer up", will only cause more stress, especially when the mind has not resolved the issues involved in feeling down. We do not resit happiness, so therefore it tends to fade away, but it is because we resist our sadder moments, they get to hang around a lot longer. Things change in life and changes can feel somewhat scary at times, so our mind ends up resisting change of all sorts, even the positive changes sometimes. _Derek

It's very understandable to feel depressed when things aren't going exactly how we want. I'm so sorry to hear about your dog and your daughter's horse. We all need a grieving period to put things back into perspective. I hope you start feeling better soon. ?

It's understandable that you are down with what you have been through lately. Who wouldn't? Let's pray for better days!

Hey Now!!! Cheer up. I think those two things are whats making you feel down. It makes sense. But it will get better. And now that the summer is coming your mood should get much better.

Hi velvet, I think that this is a result of what you have been experiencing lately and you will be back to your old self soon.Your daughter-in-law's accident must have been a big worry and having to put a pet to sleep is never easy. We miss them for a long time. Blessings.

Life certainly has a way of getting you down. I struggle with depression and with staying positive on a daily basis. Keep your chin up. Things will work out. Remember that God is in control...

What is good here is that you have recognised the reasons while you feeel down in the dumps. many others would not know and then perhaps would be depressed for a longer period. Putting a dog down is a traumatic experience as you miss him/her and then your DIL being sick. Don't be hard on yourself and you will soon be all right again

I am so sorry you are feeling down. I know what it is to lose a dog, as almost a year ago, on April 16th, my dog passed away, but she had b een sick, and was hospitalized overnight one night because he has real high blood suger which was over 1000. They did manage to get it down to under 300, but by then, the damage was already done, as i brought her back home on a Friday, and on Sunday night during the night, she passed away. I heard her take her make a sound that I never heard before, and I didn't know that it was her last breath, and when I got up in the morning to take care of her, she was gone. I grieved for the longest time, but I did finally get another dog, that I rescued from the pund, and she is a sweet heart, and very loving, along with my other dog, that I already had. I am sorry to hear about your daughter- in-law too, and I hope that everything is o9kay with her as well. I also hope you get to feeling better soon. Just keep your mind occupied with other things, and you will feel better in not time. Take care, and have a very good day.

It happens to everyone I guess. There are times we feel low inside. Just eat chocolates when this happens. Chocolates have a way of lifting your spirits.

Try to cheer up,my friend.Life is beautiful and sometimes it's even a small thing that can make you feel warm and happy.So it's you who can decide how's your day.So good luck to you.

Hi Velvet! At some points in our lives we all experience that. Don't worry much, it will soon pass. Just always stay strong till that storm passes through. God bless you, my friend.

I hope you will try to look at the brighter side of your life that at least your daughter-in-law is recuperating and it is a good news. Do not let the stress overtaken you but overcome it instead. Everyday there is darkness and day eventually will come . Life is such, ups and downs. So, when we are down we should try to overcome it with gladness and hope...then a brighter days will be awaiting us !

You have had some stress lately so I can understand why your feeling this way. Anyone would in your situation. Having to put your dog down must have been so hard and then your daughter in law's accident too, I'm sorry. I really hope you feel more like yourself again soon!

Hi velvet, I am sorry you are not feeling yourself these past few days,,,but it seems like you have some issues going in your life now so you are entitled to have a few days of feeling down. for I am sure your dog meant a lot to you...But just remember that there are many others who have a lot worst problem than you..there was some one here on mylot this past week who was talking about cutting their wrist ending their life..So do your greiveing and know that you are somebody and that your life is worth living to the fullest extent... We all get in a funk sometimes and there is not always a justifiable reason....but I am hoping that you will feel better real soon....God Bless !!!!
