[_Cathy_]

How do you deal with sadness?

[viper888]

Get drunk, very drunk

[monkeybone1k]

This what I am now..

I drink but not to be get drunk. Invite some fellas. Talk. Pero kapag masarap ang kwentuhan dumadami ang naiinom hanggang malasing pero di tulog dahil magda-drive pa ako pauwi.

I've been wanting to do that but I only let loose (drunk) with few close friends. I think that is another reason why I am depressed because they have all left Manila

Getting drunk doesn't cure it though... it's just a temporary measure to forget for time being.

^agree! Been there many times (and you all as well). I only ended up empty pocket.

there's a part of me that's sad from a breakup months ago but i hardly notice because i keep myself busy like clean/pimp my room, have more time with my dogs, long drives, think about new projects and have a drink on weekends.

drive around, do some work, listen to dark or aggressive tunes, or car detailing usually works for me.

that's not a problem....

Drive to anywhere. Eat whatever I want. And sometimes I just tear-eye myself to sleep. Wala naman akong bisyo. I don't drink din. Effective naman, the next day most of the time I feel a lot better.

Divert attention. Yan ang isang reason bakit ako nahilig sa photography, to overcome sadness.

Keep yourself busy and productive. Think what will happen to you in the future or near future if you just let yourself be drowned with that emotion. Sayang oras.

I observed some acquaintances who always seemed to be sad (walang gana sa buhay) and the more they drown themselves on it, the more people walk away. It's some sort of baggage that you can live without but insist on dragging on. I think it's more on their outlook or perspective on life that they let circumstances control them instead of taking control of the situation.

pray.. and concentrate on work.. smile life is beautiful

I always smile

get busy. do something that you'll use your mind so you wouldn't have a chance to think of the things that make you sad.
a long drive is good, pero magsama ka ng kausap. kapag mag isa ka lang, mapapa isip ka lang ulit.
cry. just let it out, once. wag na paulit uilt.
drink. I drink but i am not a drunk. it helps me sleep at night, tipong paghiga, tulog agad wala ng papasok pa sa isip.
enjoy the company of your friends, family o kahit strangers. wag nyo lang pag uusapan ang dahilan ng sadness mo.

temporary solution

I wish I could do the long driving but there were several instances when I almost had an accident because my mind was drifting off and there are days when I feel like a zombie. Sometimes I wish I were a guy so I would be less emotional.

alcohol and drugs cover up sadness but the effect wears off so you'll be dependent on those things to cope with sadness

so now you got a new problem on top of your sadness --- addiction
