Unhappy in general

    The last 12 months or so have been challenging for me with bereavement, relationship breakdown, job changes etc. and I find myself feeling unhappy a lot of the time. I know that sad things hapen and sadness is part of that, but this is more of a general unhappiness about my life and where I am in it. This isn't what I planned for myself if you know what I mean?!

    It feels like this is a long period of 'downs' in terms of the life's ups and downs and I feel so stuck. My friends are kind but I would find it hard to disclose the full extent of how thoroughly cr@ppy I feel beyond 'I'm having a bad day'. I don't have a Plan B so even if I could re-design my life tomorrow I wouldn't know what to put in it.

    Do you folks have any ideas of things that might help? Bizarrely my friends would tell you I'm the most positive person they know!

    Hi there
    Sorry to hear what youre going through at the moment. I know life has its ups and downs you can get through the tough times. Remember there is light at the end of the tunnel and things will get better. My advice to you if youre feeling depressed is to go and see your GP and tell him or her how unhappy you are at the moment and ask if he or she can prescribe you with some anti depressants. Also why not consider doing some voulantry work. Even doing some charity work abroad is something to think about. Maybe head off to Africa or even South America to do some charity work helping the poor. Also dont be afraid to ask to help. Even try and get some counselling for all that you have been through lately would also help.
