So this came up while i'm on my way back to college,while it rains alot the whole journey. Before i start, this gonna be an entry based on my experiences only, not a research or experiment. If you want one, read journal. On psychology or anything.
I was so down today up to point that i feel sick physically (milk-consumed contributed to that alot though. I dunno why i CAN'T with milk) BUT importantly,my mind was in mess. My emotion was not stable. 1st thing: pray. That helps ALOT. Both mentally & physically. Concentrate on your pray. You'll find peace.
Second: find time to reflect. On your daily activities. While you go through what you did that day/yesterday, you'll somehow find the thing that makes you feel bad/down. Succeed in that, FLIP the negative tone of that bad thing to positive one. That's what I always do, once.
I'll give one example. Yesterday i made my friend angry. Not totally my fault. Feeling bad until today & whole week. Take some time to walk & observe other people. THINK. FLIP. Maybe it happens as to make you realized what your friend didn't like. Fix it, apologized, appreciate friendship more. ASSUME all the good possibilities.
You may be tired from all the busy schedule, human characters that didn't spend their time trying to understand you,,so you told yourself "I'm tired of this. I'm sick of people & world. Let me just sleep.." It works, sleep DOES works. BUT i find it temporary. The problems will come back to you in any times. Try reflect before sleeping. Forgive others. You'll be sleeping in much better state InsyaAllah.
I speak based on experiences. I just passed a phase of my life of being so down until I asked myself "where did your positiveness went? It used to be one of my strongest point" So Allah gave me this realization,Alhamdulillah. I lacked REFLECTION these days. So I feel this should be shared with others. Many times Allah said in Quran
"..don't you think?" (..Tidakkah kamu berfikir?)
PRAY. REFLECT. FLIP. BE POSITIVE.
Love: yanaliyana~
