Well, even though I’m really into psychology, I’m not an eminent psychologist who is capable of giving others sound advice on how to overcome their sadness. Yet I myself can get over the bitter experience of the past by these following strategies. Some work for me may not work for you and vice versa, but I’m still of the viewpoint that “experience worth sharing”. You can point out several other tactics to deal with everyday problems, therefore, just feel free to comment if you wanna add something :))
Here we go~~~
#1 CLEANING SOMETHING
Sounds a bit weird or even crazy, but believe me, it ranks as my first choice whenever I feel blue. You can choose whatever you wanna clean up: from the kitchen, the windows to the water closet if possible :)) Or you just polish your shoes, and that’s ok. The point is that you can get away from your mental problem temporarily and have some extra time to relax without doing any harm to others or wasting your money. Instead, you can contribute to your hygiene house as well.
#2 WRITING DOWN THE TROUBLES
This is a very common way to reduce stress in this hectic life, so I don’t have much to write about this method. Just one word, I would say it is ULTRA-EFFECTIVE.
#3 MEDITATING
Numerous researches and studies have proven the extraordinary impacts of meditation on both physical and mental health. When we put every effort into keeping peace of mind, calmness is maintained, so the obstacles will definitely fail to drive us insane.
#4 WANDERING OR STRETCHING OR DO SOMETHING SIMILAR
Just even a short walk can do you good. You know, physical movements of the body can accelerate your heartbeats, thereby, you’ll feel much better.
In a nutshell, just do whatever you want :)) It is up to you, ranging from one person to the others. As I had said before, something that works for me might not work for me, so you just need to focus on the things that don’t bother you and keep thinking about something that isn’t related to your pain.
I hope that these silly pieces of advice come in handy :))

UPDATE:
I’m writing these lines on a hot humid day in September 2023, 6 years after such silly words were written. I’ve gained much throughout the years; however, I think the most valuable lesson is how to lead a meaningful life.
Now I’m still depressed af, but maybe there is no one reading these stupid lines. I don’t think there is anyone scrolling down to the very beginning of my stupid web blog and reading these things. That’s why I don’t really mind disclosing the inner sadness that is torturing me every single day.
But should you happen to see any of the stupidity on this website and feel relatable, just direct message me on IG. Maybe we’ll grow better, or at least, less miserable, together. And if we have met in person somewhere else, please don’t hate me. I’ve tried hard to maintain my optimistic facade. Perhaps it’s among some of my biggest achievements.
My birthday is on its way. Next month. This year, I don’t think I would buy anything for myself on my birthday. God, please send me a surprising gift on this occasion only. I wish I’m diagnosed with cancer, so I could go back home to live with my family for a while after a decade =)) Afterward, I would take my own life peacefully before the illness kills me and damages my organs. Then I can donate all the organs that I’ve promised to give in the registration form. I don’t know if I’m qualified to enter heaven or not, but after I die, I will stay home and look after my whole big family until they all pass away.
Am I too pessimistic? Am I too bad? I don’t deserve love and care, and all I can have is just solitude, right?
Nice day, everyone.
