Things to Do When You Feel Sad Hopeless and Defeated
Call a friend. While this almost sounds too plain, most don’t even think about doing this either as they don’t want to burden their buddies, or because they’re too stuck on their issues to consider talking about something else. Pick one human you absolutely like chatting to and just talk your sweet little face off. You can chat about your issue if you think it will support it, or you can utilize this as a chance to get your brain off of things. Just talk!! About everything, anything, silly matters, and nothing.
Pen up yourself a love letter. I’ll be honest, I haven’t written once in a while, but I think it’s time. A love letter to yourself is so therapeutic and powerful. In this letter, you tell yourself all the awesome and amazing matters about yourself. You list out all the reasons you must not emotional like a loser. You can go on and on about how amazingly wonderful you are. Pen out all the matters you like about yourself and all your redeeming and radiant qualities.
Put on some music and dance and sing. Oh yeah. Select the thrashiest, loudest music you have (and love) and crank up the stereo. Or maybe you love jazz or country or whatever! Turn it up and rip off the knob. Dance, sing, listen to music around your sweet home like a silly fool. Some days when you are feeling defeated, you put on the saddest music with the roughest hitting lyrics, sing loud, cry your heart out, and remarkably afterward you feel a zillion times better!!
Watch funny movies and eat junk meals. Yes, I said it. Eat junk meal, aka comfort food. Everyone calls it a comfort meal for a reason. Because that’s exactly what it does. And yes, I get that we might have a teeny sore belly in the evening, all depending on how much comfort meal you swallowed the night before, but really, chocolate ice cream and burger and pizza and shake really do the soul good.
Write a truth letter. Yes, I like writing letters. It’s the good therapy out there, I swear! Much like a love letter to yourself, a truth letter is a message you will pen up to someone or something that is causing you sorrow and grief.
Set a timer. We already identify we can’t stay in this dark sad place for too long, or it will consume us. After a few months of feeling like this set a timer for twenty minutes, twice a day. In this time slot, feel angry, scream, sad, weep, or do whatever else you have to do, but when the timer is up attempt to compose yourself and shift your focus elsewhere—on your hobby, work, helping a buddy, anything other than your own issues.
