We know the feeling of being sad. It destroys our peace of mind, and we feel bad about ourselves or any circumstances that trigger it.
There are moments when we no longer feel good about the things or activities we used to do. Our energies are drained, and we lack the inspiration and motivation to achieve something worthwhile.
What makes us feel sad? How do we get over it? Life can be a roller coaster of emotions, and we experience all of it, from happiness to sadness.
Feeling sad is just momentary, and the emotion just fades away. We're not supposed to experience it for a long time since that will lead to a more severe consequence, which is depression. It's important to note that while sadness is a normal human emotion, depression is a serious mental health condition that may require professional intervention.
Our feelings, whether positive or negative, are a crucial part of our human experience. When we feel sad, it's often a result of feeling rejected, disappointed, or not getting what we want. In these moments, having our emotions recognized by others can be incredibly comforting and affirming. It's when our feelings are dismissed or ignored that we can feel even sadder and more isolated.
Overcoming sadness is not about waiting for someone to come and rescue us. It's about tapping into our inner strength and resilience. Yes, the support of others can be invaluable, but ultimately, our determination and courage can lift us out of the depths of sadness, even when it feels like no one is there to listen.
A moment of sadness makes our life meaningful when we're back to our best selves. Nobody wouldn't want to be sad. We want to be happy, feel good about our highest self, and just be glad.
