Everyone knows that life can be a rollercoaster—one minute you might be having the time of your life but the next moment, everything just isn't as wonderful as it seems. Maybe something happens unexpectedly or maybe things just aren't going your way and you feel as if the whole world is just crumbling around you. So here are five things to remember when you are feeling blue:
1. It's not the end of the world.
Yeah, it might really suck right now, but you have to remember it's not going to last forever. Don’t let it get the best of you. Try to keep striving on. It is easier said than done, but just remember in time it will get better. I promise.
2. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
I know you just secretly sang that to yourself.
Maybe you are going through a breakup, mourning a death of a loved one or just flat out having a bad day. The pain you feel might feel like someone is just ripping you apart, but there is always something that comes out of experiences, sometimes it can be lesson or just what to expect. Next time you'll be ready, more prepared at what life swings your way and maybe it just won't hurt as much.
3. It is OK to cry.
Life is hard, I won't argue with that. Sometimes a good cry or even letting yourself feel the way you're feeling strangely makes you feel better, so go on and let it out.
4. Have a dance party.
Sometimes being alone is what you might need—a little free time for yourself, without having to feel like anyone is watching or breathing down your neck for once. Crank up some music and have a dance party. Dance all the bad away, it sure helps when I feel like I am on the edge.
5. You are a badass
That's right, you are a badass and don't let anyone tell you anything otherwise.The feeling will pass so keep going. Life goes on and there are many different things to experience, so don’t let anything slow you down.
You might be having a bad day or a bad week or even a bad month, but in time things will get better, I promise. Just remember you are a survivor. If life wants to swing anything your way, just remember you will get through it.
