Wake up on the wrong side of the bed?
Some days I think there is no right side of the bed. Heck, I’d even climb over the headboard if it would help, but there’s just no shaking that mood sometimes.
Being in a bit of a funk lately reminded me of some thoughts about moods and emotions.
Advice I tell myself and others when going through a rough time is to allow yourself to feel what you’re feeling. Be honest about how the situation makes you feel and feel it. Don’t disallow yourself an emotion because it’s not an ideal one. But then, do NOT dwell there. Feel the emotion and move on. Dwelling is where we get unhealthy and stuck in the mood, I think.
You don’t have to be on all the time because chances are it’d be 1) dishonest and 2) annoying, frankly.
Just make sure you remember the important part: getting back up. :)
