There are days when we feel like nothing really
matters. We feel like life is meaningless and that there’s nothing worth living
for. We’ve all been through those days. It feels as if there’s no light at the
end of the tunnel.
We feel exhausted and jaded. We feel like there’s no
motivation left in us; no hope. Life looks like an endless cycle of mundane
activities.
But in a world that makes you feel average, YOU are
the one who can make yourself extraordinary. You are the one who can turn the
tables and find your mojo.
Here’s what you should do:
Give Yourself Space
When it feels like everything is happening all at once
and you feel overwhelmed, give yourself some time and space. Give yourself at
least two days to figure things out. Disconnect from the world over the
weekend, cancel all plans, and spend some “me time” in your room. Think about
things, sleep it off, watch a movie, or go on a date with yourself.
That “me time” will do wonders for your mental health.
Set Healthy Boundaries
It’s time to revaluate things, especially our
relationships. If lately you’ve been feeling stressed out because of things
others are expecting from you, it’s time to set healthy boundaries.
For example, you need to communicate with your partner
that you cannot afford to stay up after midnight to watch movies. Let them know
that you’re trying to make changes and need to be in bed by maximum 11pm.
Email your boss and let them know that you cannot entertain
their text messages or work emails after your shift ends. Set an auto text to
remind them.
Seek Support
When it feels like things are going out of hand,
consulting a professional can help. You need an outside opinion to vent,
without the fear of judgment. Bottled up feelings can come out in bad ways.
Letting them out in healthier ways and working with a professional to find
effective solutions will prove to be beneficial.
