What Do You Do To Overcome Sadness?

[MR_BIG18]

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

keto..sino kaya yun..haha

Maybe I should go out more so I won't feel so sad anymore. Be more spontaneous. The upcoming holidays are a chance for me to go out.

Watch silly cartoons.

To try to tell or show someone more knowledgeable or experienced than oneself how to do something.

Drink a cocktail of antihistamines to knock you out for 18 hrs.

I'm thinking of taking uppers so I can function in the day. I cannot be like this forever. I don't want to disappoint my boss at work.

Dont do drugs cathy. Thats not the answer. Dont justify it. Dont try it. This is the beginning of a very slippery slope.

i'll let all of you in on a lil secret about sadness and depression. you know why you feel it, coz you are a coward. you are afraid to push thru with what's whispering inside of you. you let your intelllect justify your not doing or pursuing it.

for example, a guy saw another friend who just bought a porsche, most people would let it pass away but not you, coz somehow, tinamaan ka eh, you need to have it, but you're not willing to take the sacrifice to get it. so sadness and depression comes in. it's settling for 2nd best or doing nothing with what God is forcing you to do.


Yes, at times God will want you to buy a porsche, not because you will look good with it but because you're struggle in the next months or years to come to get the porsche is what he's interested in. He knows na dun lang ma-rerelease ang potential mo.

with *cath, she's so intellectual, iniisip pa lang nya ayaw na nya gawin but sometimes you have to do stupid things to make you happy. hope this helps you *cath

btw, that life idea na we should all work hard now to prepare for that good retirement. that's the main source of depression and sadness for most people nowadays. Pay yourself first, bankrupt yourself if you must to pursue that purpose. ganun talaga eh, if not kuta-takot na delays lang lalo aabutin nyo with the pursuit of your true purpose in this world. so there you go, when you're depressed and sad, you're just too logical. God is not logical.

I only want prescription drugs but I definitely won't do recreational drugs. I can't describe how it is but I want to feel numb because it's too painful when I'm conscious.

I know this will all pass over time but until then I don't wanna feel.

But really I appreciate your concern and your posts (among some other people) that keep me from quitting the board.
