Life is never as bad as it seems to be

Posted by Ken at 3/29/2006 10:18:00 AM
I've started to think lately that I have depression. I've gone through some really hard times and it has shown in my school work. Today I had two tests that were based upon homework that I didn't do this month. I crammed as much as I could for them and tried my very best. I'm sure that I failed my calculus test, nothing seemed right on there. However, on my computer science test, I actually think that I did halfway decent. I felt like I knew all of the answers. In fact, I think everything that I crammed for in the last hour before the test was exactly what was on the test.

However, even if I did fail both tests completely, so what? I'm still alive. I still love my job. I still have friends. Failing tests is not something I am used to, but I can tell that it is something that can be overcome.

For the past two days or so I was thinking that my life is over and that I have nothing else to live for. Well, it simply isn't true. I have so many people that care about me. I know that life is never as bad as it seems to be. I'm okay.

    The trick is, when things get bad you've got ask yourself a couple of questions:

    1) What's wrong?
    2) What can you do about it?

    If you can't do anything then what's the point in worrying if you can't change it? If you can change it for the better, then do so.

    There's a lot of things in life that we can't control. Learning not to worry about them is a good step when you're feeling stressed or depressed about things in life.
