There are many reasons for sadness in the world. But succumbing to it, a person closes in himself, ceases to notice the good, is disappointed in people. To get rid of sadness and overcome loneliness, you will have to reconsider your views on the world, those around you and yourself. After all, the reasons for loneliness always lie in yourself.
Instructions
Step 1
Understand yourself. Negative emotions should not be suppressed in all possible ways as soon as they arise. Physical pain indicates that something is wrong with the body. Sadness is a spiritual pain, an urge to internal changes. Try to understand what is causing the decrease in mood and influence the situation.
Step 2
You can start with external changes. Take care of yourself. Go to the hairdresser, indulge in a spa massage, buy something you've been looking at for a long time. After that, do a general cleaning, move furniture, throw out old trash. Add something new and cheerful to the interior. For example, orange curtains. For all these things, you will not even notice how sadness has been forced out somewhere in the backyard of the soul.
Step 3
Stop feeling sorry for yourself. As Dostoevsky noted, man is full of contradictions. Some people find some special pleasure in thinking for a long time about their loneliness and "needlessness." And they do not cease to suffer from this. If you really want to stop being sad, the world will provide you with tons of opportunities to be happy.
Step 4
Exercising and eating well is a great way to relieve sadness. After all, depressive states are often the result of "stagnation" of the body, or a lack of certain substances in the diet. In addition, classes in the gym, morning jogging or even rafting on a mountain river are a good opportunity to meet new people.
Step 5
Come out into the light. There is an anecdote about a man who dreamed of winning the lottery, but … never bought a ticket. To get rid of loneliness, do not withdraw into yourself. Sign up for a club, for a foreign language course, go to a club. Look for more opportunities to communicate with people, flirt actively, do not be afraid to openly express emotions.
Step 6
Be interesting as a person. A person who leads a passive lifestyle, not interested in anything, soon ceases to be interesting to himself, not to those around him. Travel the world, learn foreign languages, be creative, read different books. People are drawn to diversified people, interesting interlocutors themselves.
Step 7
Don't judge others too harshly. Not having met a worthy one - go alone? A wise decision, but if you wish, you can find a lot of flaws in every person. And as a result, be left alone with yourself (and, moreover, also imperfect). Appreciate people for who they are, be able to forgive. Be kind to others, and in gratitude they will reveal their best sides for you.
Step 8
See the world cheerfully. Even if cats scratch their souls, smiling will not be hypocrisy towards yourself. A good mood brings a smile to your face, but this rule also works in the opposite direction. Making facial expressions more cheerful, you will feel how your inner state improves, and you will see how many interesting people are around.
