Often in the daily routine of gray everyday life there is a feeling of oppression, causeless longing, increased aggressiveness and irritability. It would seem that groundless symptoms occur out of the blue, without any significant prerequisites. However, there is an explanation for every phenomenon on this planet, and the described signs of moral distress are referred to as nothing but a bad mood.
Poor mood and its causes
So a person is arranged that at the moments of a dejected state or disorder his emotions are not subject to him, and he is not able to think rationally and act towards increasing his own mood. A bad mood is the result of certain events and arises from causal relationships, which, in essence, can be completely insignificant. However, having accumulated like a snowball, one after another the small problematic moments together form one big threat - stress, a breakdown under stress, and a long-term depression behind a nervous breakdown. Therefore, it is important to solve problems as they become available. And even if the mood is very bad, you cannot start the situation and allow the transformation of a depressed state into a depressive one.
The main aspect in counteracting a dull and depressed mood is to identify the root of the problem. After all, after finding out the main cause of sadness, spleen and irritability, you can start from the opposite and act in the opposite direction in order to regain peace of mind and peace as soon as possible.
The following life troubles can serve as reasons for a bad mood:
- conflict situation with one or more people;
- tense work environment;
- problems in personal life;
- misunderstanding or ridicule from others;
- problems with being overweight;
- age-related changes in appearance;
- feeling guilty in front of someone;
- introspection and increased self-criticism;
- feeling of fear;
- a constant lack of time and a breakdown;
- bad state of health.
One or several reasons, merged together, give a powerful impetus to the thought process, due to which a person begins to analyze the situation, dig into himself, blame himself for the incorrectness of one or another act, which ultimately, undoubtedly, leads to frustration and mental imbalance.
But how to cope with a bad mood? What efforts must be made on itself so that it does not develop into a persistent long-term depression? And what if the bad mood does not disappear for a long time? There are several effective ways to resist mental decline and a state of deep depression.
Programming one’s consciousness as a method of dealing with despondency
Feeling an attack of stagnation and spleen, a person must reprogram himself into another stream of thoughts and actions. It is not necessary to contact a specialist in order to set priorities for yourself and not return to a topic that is so worrying and exciting. We are told from childhood that the “witch”, from whom we hide under a blanket at night, exists only in our head, and the reason for its existence there is our fear. Inspired by children's thoughts, the illusion makes us worry and worry that someone is waiting for us in this darkness to arrange reprisal - but this is only a manifestation of our own sense of fear.
So it is with a bad mood: we ourselves give ourselves the intention to think and reflect on the current problem that has become the cause of our emotional imbalance. And, therefore, we ourselves guide our consciousness and ourselves can reprogram our thoughts in a more positive way and alienation from oppressive thoughts.
Revitalization of life positions against the spleen
The second aspect in the fight against melancholy and spleen is the inclusion of particles of active activity in the daily routine. Even if there are a lot of excuses about the lack of time, energy, and the busy work day - you must definitely find a free window for yourself, which will be occupied by the most important occupation for physical and moral self-improvement. It could be:
- visit to the fitness room;
- training in the gym;
- dancing classes;
- Yoga entry
- mastering the art of boxing, kickboxing, martial arts;
- team games;
- swimming in the pool.
In a word, all kinds of active activity that are a powerful assistant in terms of splashing out negative energy and negative thoughts can be attributed here.
A surge of emotions as opposed to apathy
The next point in the fight against bad mood is the search for new sensations. A bright event that happened on an unplanned walk with friends or a spontaneously organized trip to a picnic can easily put problem points in the background. As a heavy artillery it is necessary to use more effective methods: try bungee jumping, parachute jump, master rock climbing - in other words, drown out the negative emotional state with the smell of extreme sports, replacing it with a sense of joy and pride in oneself from a successfully completed extreme task.
Parting With Bad Thoughts And Unnecessary Things
Throw away old trash and unnecessary things, ideally, should be regularly. For some reason, this process is often overlooked by many. It may be hard to believe, but it is the old things that remind you of an event from a past life that draw to the bottom and prevent you from moving on. Photos from past relationships, movie tickets with a longtime friend, an old well-worn dress in which she first kissed her beloved - this is all melancholy nonsense. With such things you need to be able to part. Without catching their eyes, they will not cause that same unfortunate sadness, which inadvertently can develop into a snowball already described earlier.
Rejection of old habits and transition to newly set priorities
The presence in life of a constant bad mood testifies to incorrectly prioritized life priorities and irrational or depressing habits taken as a basis. To change your life for the better, you need to change your usual routine. Drinking a glass of water with lemon instead of poisonous coffee in the morning, jogging in the morning for twenty minutes instead of a couple of cigarettes, having a dog and going out with her for an evening walk - this really helps to slightly adjust your views on problems and overcome your negative thinking.
Experiments with appearance and change of scenery
A powerful tool against a bad mood is to change your appearance. This is especially true of the female sex. You will not be surprised anymore by the fact that shopping, purchasing a new dress, shoes or handbags, as well as visiting the masters of today's beauty service allows you to instantly get rid of oppressive thoughts. A visit to the spa, sauna, massage, solarium, beauty parlor, nail service workshop, hairdresser, makeup artist’s apartments - all this has a beneficial effect on self-awareness and pushes negative energy beyond the walls of the beauty salon.
Self-development and self-improvement
And, finally, the most important thing - you need to understand for yourself that the value of our own life and our own time is determined by us independently. A person himself must realize his significance in this world and not be discouraged by someone else's negative opinion on this matter, thereby exposing himself to a strong upset. Thoughts and conversations about a bad mood should also be eliminated, because if you talk and think about it constantly, it will not go anywhere.
You need to allow yourself to open the way to further self-development and self-improvement: take time to read a new interesting or informative book, enroll in art courses, because it attracted so long ago, but there was no way to take up a favorite thing in which one feels one’s own superiority. And then everything will certainly change for the better.
