Wow! Do you really feel bad or you are just a curious cat?
Well, you're here now, right? Let's get to it.
People get sad everyday and feel bad and frustrated. Many of these people just wallow in their sadness without even bothering to know why. Next thing you know, they're depressed. That's another game altogether. So these could be some of the reasons why you feel bad all the time.
1. You're broke. Smile or laugh. Say "duuhh" if you want but it's true. When you don't have money to get the things you need and want, you'll feel very bad. Happiness is tied to material things (joy isn't though). Material things are necessary for comfort and these things are gotten with money. So check your pocket. Your sadness and could be because the bills are missing from your wallet.
2. You have dysfunctional relationships: This is the big apple. You may want to live in denial and act like nothing ruffles your clothes. But you know the truth. Humans are social animals. When the relationships you have suck or let's say, things aren't going between you and your family or your bestie or even a colleague at work, it would make you feel bad. Many times, it may start as a small disagreement with grudges that are swept under the carpet. If it goes on without being resolved, you'll have a big bulge of restlessness. Should we talk about a couple going through rough times? It's so not happy-ish. So, ask yourself if you've had a fall-out with anyone at all, even if it's the lady that cleans your office.
3. You are at a crossroad of sorts concerning something important: Okay. Let me explain. Sometime back, I had to make a big decision. It involved my course of study in the University. Being very analytic, I was confused and torn on what to do because the course I was offered admission to study was not in any way appealing. Anyway, long story short, I didn't know what to do and it made me sad almost all the time. So, again, think and know if there's any decision you need to make that you're confused about. At least, counsel and advice could help in this case.
4. LOW SELF ESTEEM: Yes. This is a major cause of sadness. Seeing as I don't have a degree in Behavioural/Clinical psychology, I can't really explain the dynamics. I just know that when you feel and think less of yourself, it makes you very sad. You feel like you're not important and not needed or wanted by people around. Everything and everyone makes you feel like toilet paper. Trust me guys, it's a bad place to be in. People who have this problem often need professional help. And it doesn't mean that any other thing is surely wrong with this person. It just means they've been exposed to a lot of unhealthy situations and people and information. Do you have low self esteem? You're prone to severe depression if you do.
Well, I hope this has helped you put a finger on why you feel bad all the time or what may be dragging you by the feet into depression. If there's anything I've left out, I'll talk about it in the next post.

ReplyDeleteThank you, Favour.
DeleteThank you so much, Ada. I found mine.
ReplyDeleteI think another reason we could feel bad all the time is because we think too much of ourselves. We expect perfection, cos we think we are. I hope we all eventually find our way back.
Thank you for being a blessing.❤️
Thank you so much for reading through. You're so right. We think too much. We expect too much from ourselves and set unrealistic standards. This is definitely a route to depression.
DeleteI must say, you were spot on with the reasons. The emotions tied to money and the lack of it can be nerve-racking. Especially when you can't bank on the bank leaving that last set of cash, that they would still use bank charges to ensure you cant withdraw. At the days end its important to know exactly what has you down so you can decide to not have it keep you sad forever.
