overwhelmed
Posted 22nd February 2008 by Boysmom
I don't think that I know what is FUN anymore. Everyday seems like the other dragging day and there is no fun. Don't get me wrong. I was funny when I was young. Now some of my friends still think I am funny, but actually I did not feel the way that others felt. Life seems trivia in any perspectives.
I loved to write, but English is not my native language. Whenever I want to say something, it is very difficult for me to find the right words. I loved to read, but I lost the enthusiasm and the joyful feelings to read one (I made an excuse that I did not find a right one).
Now I try to find some good (funny?) things in my daily life. I keep telling myself that tomorrow will be another day and it will become better and better.

When I feel like you do -- and boy, it's often! - I try to get myself to find tiny, little things to make me happy (tiny fun things I call them:) I eat something I really like, I watch a bit of my favorite movie, listen to a favorite song, make a card, something. It helps a bit....

Eventually, I had a near breakdown and sought help. I'm better after some counselling and have finally been able to find joy in the little things in life, in counting my blessings. And yes, it is easier said than done.
Right now, I am facing a crisis at my workplace: plenty of politics at play - but I'm able to keep myself sane thanks to some positive thinking. I would not have been able to do this last year. There's no harm in asking for help. Things get better when you WANT them to get better. The next step is to decide how you're going to do it.
Apologies for the length of the comment. :) Feel free to write to me if you'd like to.
