What do you do when you have a bad day?

i seem too have allot more bad days since I got put on oxygen I have vertigo and something going on with my stomach I wanna see someone but my mom says it’s gastrics and nothing can be done I’m suffering every day I cant stop crying I thought about calling a sucied hotline just for someone too talk too who will listen I don’t wanna be on oxygen anymore and hooked up too these machines just need too vent I started cbd oil it’s helps with my stomach and anxiety but it’s so damn expensive I don’t have the money too do it three times a day

 

When I'm Having A Bad Day I Keep It To Myself.......I Don't Burden Others With My Problems.....



Cheers Glen.

 

I just wish I had someone too talk too I never wanna feel like a burden but I do I guess feel that way at times everyone in my family is busy I feel like I’m fading away

 

I meant like doing exercises or music movies food

 

Things too cheer yourself up

 

If my day is going notably bad, I know it's not going to get better unless I do something to change it. So, I go to the gym, or go walking outside, or at the mall. These are things that generally make me feel like I'm at least under control. From there I try to get into my routine, whatever it may be. I do routines, so if I can see that I'm in my usual pattern of habits it calms me down. If all else fails, I have people I can talk to about it. There's a crisis team a phone call away.

 

I usually try and do something that exhausts me when I have a bad day, and then go to sleep early. Writing can help, too. Maybe you can make a thread on here, or open a blog, where you just vent every day.

 

If I were to write I would probably spew negativity into Microsoft Word. Worst case scenario: it gets sent to someone I'm mad at. lol

 

That works, too. But some people like a broader audience when they vent: and it seems like Jen is one of those people (just given her threads here).

 

I've thought about doing that for myself. It depends on the audience though. Otherwise i'm better off writing to myself or seeking solitude. Not so much because of having a bad day. More because so much goes on internally and it all gets bottled up inside. Instead i usually find myself throwing hints here and there.

Whenever i feel overwhelmed with thoughts or confusion, or the day isn't going right, i often seek solitude.

Jen, you can pm me. I may read it without responding. But you'll have some way of expression. Just don't depend on a response.

 

Ever try prayer? God is the “hearer of prayer” he is there to comfort us in all our trials. Much love

 

Aerianne did something similar, if my memory serves me. I enjoyed reading it--I would certainly read yours, you seem like a complex and interesting person, and you write well. I would read Jen's thread/blog too.

 

I just Sent you a message

 

For me, sitting in the sun, with some upbeat music, watching and listening to the birds and insects, watching the plants and trees sway in little breezes, etc...mellows me right out.

 

I’ve been using CBD oil too help with the pain anxiety I try and do half on treadmill watch a tv show I like too pass the time keep up with my nebs and breathing stuff too stay healthy play casino games too keep busy

 

I look at the positive things in life, and think of people who are a lot worse off than me. Good music helps. Lately been a lot of Wagon Wheel, by Darius Rutger.

 

I like to go for a long run

 

punch boxing bag

 

Does this really help you? I find that it tends to push me deeper into the hole, probably because it makes me feel foolish for being sad when there are so many people who have real, Earth-shattering problems.

I can relate to jimandjans mindset. It's not my go to tactic though, after a bad day. But yes, I find it does put things in a slightly comfortable perspective.
I think the also focussing on positive things in life may be a key part. Otherwise one could indeed wallow in not only the shitty feeling of the bad day/circumstances but also some serious self pity (like, look at everything i got compared to others, but i still feel so bad boohoo... i must be utterly worthless!)
