What Do You Do To Overcome Sadness?

[uls]

sad people like to shop

they keep buying new stuff they don't need

it has to do with the neurotransmitter dopamine

when they buy new stuff they get a dopamine high (it feels good)

then it fades

to get that feeling again they have to buy new stuff again

Parang addict lang. Tapos pataas ng pataas dosage kasi di na kaya isatisfy yung past need.

What I do is I think about the times I have disappointed other people as well. It reaffirms the fact that we are only human and prone to make mistakes. It pays to forgive people quickly. The longer you hang on to your disappointment, the worse off you will be.

I don't know what's wrong with me nga. But that is how I deal with disappointments. I don't want to expose myself from being hurt further that is why I cut people off. The good thing is I know that my friends are my real friends because they are very patient and understanding with me and they don't hurt or disappoint me.

Time for you to move on. Leave your job and work somewhere else. Hinde na healthy yan environment sa work ko for you.

I like my job and my bosses let me get away with a lot of things at work. They don't get mad at me even when my attendance is horrible. They are aware of my issues so my direct boss just tells me to learn to manage my emotions. My German boss is very good to me too. He is very attuned to my feelings. He would ask if he did something wrong or if I am mad at him or why I am not talking to him. I don't think I will find a boss like that pa, minsan nga siya na gumagawa ng work ko. hahaha.

Yung crush ko naman I don't report to him. His work is totally different from mine.

Inaayos pa kasi pero either punta ako Germany or US.

Retail Therapy: One In Three Recently Stressed Americans Shops To Deal With Anxiety | The Huffington Post

Forget meditation and yoga: For many stressed-out Americans, the best remedy for a stressful day at work or the sting of a painful breakup is the smell of brand-new clothing, the feel of a silk dress and the sound of a credit card being swiped. If you turn to retail therapy in times of anxiety, you’re not alone — according to a recent survey, nearly one in three recently stressed Americans (which accounts for 91 percent of the general population) shops to deal with stress.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the survey — an online poll of over 1,000 U.S. adults commissioned by the Huffington Post — found that women were twice as likely as men to use retail therapy as a way to cope with stress (40 percent vs. 19 percent). And in turn, men were more than twice as likely as women (34 percent vs. 16 percent) to say that they had never shopped out of stress and would never consider doing so in the future.

But gender aside, there is one trait many “stress-shoppers” have in common: They tend to seek distracting, temporary fixes to alleviate their stress. HuffPost’s survey found that those who shop to deal with anxiety (versus those who do not) were also...

46 percent more likely to exercise to cope with stress
86 percent more likely to eat to cope with stress
76 percent more likely to worry about their weight

In other words, the stress-shoppers are also “stress-eaters” and “stress-exercisers.” Those who used retail therapy tend toward the “flight” side of fight vs. flight, distancing themselves from the stress with an unrelated activity rather than facing it head-on. In contrast, the respondents who said they never shop to deal with stress were more likely to cope by finding the root of their anxiety and confronting it.

fake friends that sugar coat you with lies than to tell the sad truth and help you improve...

And then there are friends who tell you the harsh truth but further damage your self esteem. I've been convinced in the past by "realistic friends" that once I turn 30 I am EXPIRED = fat, old, ugly and latak. I've been told as much as my value as a woman only comes from my looks/body and that my education and values do not matter to others. Ganyan ba kailangan ko na reality?

Good thing I have new friend now that is such a breath of fresh air for me. He is so positive and does NOT put me down. He motivates me on improving myself and I can really feel his concern.

When shadow posted that pic of Ashley Graham I couldn't really believe that men would find someone with extra weight attractive. And then other guys agreed with shadow. I even asked my new friend to google Ashley Graham and tell me what he thinks and the first thing he said is "wow". So no, I am not looking for friends to tell me lies, I need friends who are positive and who would not destroy further my already damaged self esteem.

Etong text ng new friend ko sakin paulit ulit ko binabasa. Instead of telling me that I am expired he says that anyone can still improve at any age.



He also follows up on my progress and it does make me feel better knowing that someone is pushing me to improve myself. Pero minsan kasi kahit anong push niya malungkot pa rin talaga ako.



Thank you din pala sa isang tsikoteer pushing me to do Keto... And to shadow for letting me know that not all men are shallow

Hala baka maulit yung star lovers drama ko

Ashley graham for the win!
