I am very down. I am really ready for some happiness to come to me and stick around for a good long while. Is there a happiness dance you can do? Some of the deaths in my life seemed to be from natural causes. my mom took poor care of herself and so did my aunt. My Dad's eating habits were just screaming for a stroke. But it might not have happened if it werent for my brothers death. My brother took very poor care of himself too. To be honest my health isn't so great but I have serious pain issues which makes it very hard for me to work out. I try the pool and I'm sore for a week. But I could eat better and stop drinking so much. But when I don't I think about all of this crap. I'm not from N.Y but I have to say it. Whattya gonna do eh? I need a fairy godmother to come and sit on my shoulder. I know I need a more positive outlook on life but COME ON! How? How do I get this sadness and sorrow out of my head? If anybody has any tidbits of advice please send them my way .

I hit flat spot, recently, and had to go back to Sondra Ray's, "The Only Diet There Is." You probably don't have diet trouble like I do, but it doesn't matter--it's a spiritual "diet" book about slimming down on sadness and anger and the things we do to ourselves that hurt us even more, in the long run...the results are that people lose weight/anger/stress and feel better, psychically as well as physically...I know it's not a cure-all, but it had worked really well for me, twice before when things were out of control in my life. Back when I was seeing my psychiatrist, she encouraged me to take the book up, again, and keep reading until I could see some light at the end of the tunnel...I did notice a significant difference.
I had neglected this book for a long while...too many major/minor family emergencies, these last 2 years, and I'm sorry that I lost faith in myself for not returning to it, 'cause it's re-healing me, slowly but surely...and as I can't afford a psychiatrist at the moment, any stopgap is better than nothing!
There are a lot of used copies, out there, on the net, so you could prob. get one for less than $9.00 (not including S&H); or, you could try at your local library...I got mine at a Brentano's, before it closed, and I'm glad to have it, now...hon, if it helps, give it a try! Anything's better than feeling beaten down, like you are, now...esp. when you haven't been well & have been trying so hard!
Take care & God Bless...let us know how things go...

I'm terribly sorry about your aunt and your cat. There is a happiness dance but you first you must allow yourself to grieve and realize that both are in a better place and are no longer suffering.
A loss is never easy but know that you did what you could for those who have passed.

Take a moment and think about what makes you happiest and then do that. Even thinking of something you thought was funny is helpful as laughter releases endorphins and is an emotional healer.
