the number 42 said:Can you tell me what you mean by "look[ing] at the whole scenerio from the point of view of conditionality"? Do you mean not putting conditions on things e.g. 'I'll be happy when Saturday comes' etc?
If sadness lasts long, all people should have died...:tongue2:merak said:I just wait.I know... that it will not last.
Polly said:I was talking with my mom about this concept and she stoutly said, "A mother's love for her child is unconditional and will never change." To that I said "What if you are being told today that babies were switched in the hospital and I am not your daughter?" She looked at me flabbergasted .
Polly said:Better not go on here, Moonbear will get worried about my mental well being :tongue2: .
Deniel said:Moonbear, you writing style is really the same as a computer proffessor I used to know...Really, exactly (100%) the same but that is Canadian English and yours is American.
By the way, If Moonbear can write me school reports, i am sure I will get to the top of elitest students soon. Perhaps I will be better than even my school proffesors () You sound so technical and persuasive...
Sadness is a natural emotion that humans experience in response to a variety of situations, such as loss, disappointment, or stress. It is a complex emotion that involves both psychological and physiological changes in the body. We experience sadness as a way to process and cope with difficult events and situations in our lives.
Some common coping strategies for dealing with sadness include talking to a trusted friend or family member, engaging in self-care activities such as exercise or meditation, seeking professional therapy or counseling, and finding healthy ways to express and process emotions.
It is normal to experience sadness in response to difficult events in our lives. However, if the sadness persists for an extended period of time and interferes with daily functioning, it may be a sign of a more serious mental health issue such as depression. If you are concerned about your level of sadness, it is important to seek help from a mental health professional.
Some ways to support a loved one who is experiencing sadness include listening without judgement, offering a shoulder to cry on, encouraging them to seek professional help if needed, and engaging in activities together that they enjoy. It is also important to respect their boundaries and give them space if needed.
There is no quick fix for managing sadness, but there are long-term solutions that can help. These include building a strong support system, developing healthy coping mechanisms, practicing self-care, and seeking professional help if needed. It is important to remember that managing sadness is an ongoing process and it is okay to seek help when needed.
