in the case of lets say the death of someone close, there will be the 5 stage of grief. and this may take months or even years before a person gets back to his/her normal self. and in certain cases, professional help might be needed to help cope with the lose.
is there something bothering you?
maybe if you could be a little more specific... -
Find a fren to talk to.. or hang out with some frens..
go on a holiday if u can..
eat chocolates.
go shopping..
You have to tell yourself that you MUST get out of this sadness ASAP.
It's all in the mind. -

its also known as the grief cycle.Originally posted by browniebaobao:what do u mean by '5 stage of grief'?
first stage is shock where the person will not be able to accept the fact that the person is dead. their reaction will be 'No, the person isnt dead yet...'
second stage is denial where the person will hope that the person isnt dead yet. they will hope that its all a bad dream and that they will wake up and everythings fine.
third stage is anger. where one will blame themselves/G-d/doctors/the world/etc. for the death of their loved one.
fourth stage is mourning. this is the one which might last for weeks/months/years or in certain cases, forever. this is also the stage where a person might become depressed,feel extremely guilty, get panic attacks...this is the hardest stage.
last stage is recovery. where the person finally can go back to doing their daily whatevers ie work/school. although they will never be fully 'recovered' at least at this stage, they will be able to finally accept the death, and move on. -

I always hang out with friends when I am down, got alot of contacts so when I feeling really down I just call them up and treat them coffee/dinner/movies in return for accompanying me... Other methods include keeping myself busy with work/hobbies... Sometimes so much things to do really no time to think of anything else... Or go library get some books to read. Or rent movies and have a movie marathon. Or make stupid faces in front of the mirror and laugh at yourself. Or take a quiet stroll down the park. Or surf the net. Or play games. Or download stuff to do. Or read up on news. Or check out the latest clothes in town. Or go masturbate and sleep. Or go cheong and dance to your hearts contend. Or go play pool/billiard/bowling and place a wager with your friend. So many things to do, so little time.

Sad time or difficult time, some time let you discover truth and meaning about life.
-
Time will definitely heal.
but I believe by letting go of the past will give you more capacity to accept happiness and appreciate life. -
get used to it.
