Being idle will force you to our brain's default mode, which in turn will sway you to 'default mood' or negativity, as humans are negatively biased.

The Drawbacks of Mind Wandering

Apart from the fact that mind wandering keeps you from being fully present in what you’re doing, there are some other downsides to our brain’s default mode. When we let our minds wander, we typically drift towards negative thoughts and emotions. We’re focused on unresolved problems, conflicts with co-workers and girlfriends, unfulfilled goals, bills to be paid, even an embarrassing moment from ten years ago. Research has shown that even neutral thoughts that arise when our mind wanders tend to be shaded with a negative emotional tone. What’s more, once the negative thought/emotion stream gets going during mind wandering, we tend to fixate and ruminate on those thoughts (like a cow chewing its cud), which pulls us deeper and deeper into a funk.

Not only do we tend to focus on the negative when our minds wander, that stream of negativity is typically directed at ourselves, because we’re the most common subject of our musings. Mind wandering’s negativity bias and self-focus turns us all into daydreaming Eeyores (“Nobody cares. I’m so sad.”). What’s interesting is that once we start to ramp up our voluntary attention again and shift out of the mind wandering zone, the regions involved with emotional and self-referential preoccupations quiet and we start to feel better. Whenever you’re feeling in the dumps, Grandpa’s admonition to get over yourself and get to work is actually incredibly sound advice.

You remind me of me 16 years ago. Sad and alone in a place that is not home. The first step to happiness is to ask yourself what makes you sad.

Sabi mo your friends left manila, so wala ka nang barkada dyan. Di mo naman sila pwede sundan, magmumukha ka namang kawawa, orphaned. Simple lang yan miss Cathy, find new friends. Alam mo ba that as people grow older their friends also dwindle. And the reason is that people become so attached to old friends, like you are, and become so very afraid to make new ones. Guilty ako dyan. I used to have many, now i can count my friends i see regularly with 1 hand. I don't even make friends at work now, with only few exceptions and they come far in between. Nagsawa na kasi, one build up a relationship then one or the other gets transferred. And i don't see them again. Pero even if i can count my real true friends with one hand, and i can be so aloof when new prospective friends come, i still allow myself that one far in between new friend. But i am old and consider it my earned right to be aloof and grumpy when i choose to be. I am also terribly unforgiving of other people's BS. It comes with the territory i work in kasi. It also comes with age siguro. But you are not me. You are young, and you can choose to have more friends than your number of fingers and toes. Don't wait until you become 50 and wake up one day with only 2 or 1 or none. Find yourself a window shopping buddy. Rollercoaster buddy. Restaurant buddy. Book buddy. Boy watching buddy. Pwede din buddies, mas masaya. And don't worry about your old friends. They will not accuse you of treason if you find new ones.

This made me cry But I really appreciate all that you said. I made a lot of new friends (mostly colleagues) and I go out with them regularly. It's just different spending time with people you grew up with and shared a lot of milestones with. I realised that as I grow older, it is harder to make friends, nung bata kasi ako basta magkasundo kayo, friends na. Sometimes I just want to let loose and get drunk but this is a side of me that I would only let my closest friends see. I go out with my new friends a lot but I feel like the bond is very shallow, I don't get the comfort that I find from friends that I grew up with. I still email with my close friends every now and then and we'd always say that when we are older (retired etc) magkakasama sama ulit kami

Still, I don't know if that is the only reason why I am sad.
