Thread: What do you do when you feel up against the wall?

Feeling lonely won't kill me, but I have felt just at the end of my rope more than once. When that happens I try to take a deep breath and reassess the situation. If I can't do that I just go with my gut and do what I think is best for the situation.

Ugh, I hate that! "What's wrong? Are you on drugs? Did somebody do something to you? Are you sick?" It's like being friggin' interrogated!

hmm... i'd reflect... sit down. think back... and if it really hurts... let out a tear but not more than one... i'd like to reserve them for happy moments... i wan't my every tear shed to be woth it...

i'd also stare at the ceiling of my room (well... i'd lock up in my room too...) while playing music at a very stable melancholy (it's supposed to be on speakers and not earphones... it adds an ambience.) that id digs up all the feelings i've held too deep inside for such a long time... i'd think of the most valuable person i have and then find the strength within myself to convince myself to keep on moving for that person...

lie there until the sun sets (if morning) of the sun rises (if evening)... it helps me feel a bit more intune with the natural flow of things that way... and when i see the setting/rising sun... i'd feel better...

i'd wipe off my tear if i've shed one. and stand up saying to myself... "thank you... i needed that."

I try to go into hermit mode. But often people won't let you. So I tend to have a lot of mood swings and lash out. Because I'm trying to maintain a sunny disposition but people are continually puissing me off.

well... i just...smile... ^^ my mood easily change you see... but there's this "dead part" of myself... well he's been gone for a while..

What i do is find something that could make me smile and laugh... and slowly i'll laugh the pain away...

"find positive to overtake negative and find negative to overtake positive... "

What do you do when you get that feeling? How do you handle yourself?

For me, I'll just try to fix the problem as soon as possible. I may talk to close relatives or close friends about it. I'll try to focus on something that suit my interest...etc

hmm when i feel that way i just go out for a walk or go to the park and go on the swings and just think about anything that comes to my mind and i could sit there for about two hours
