When I feel sad, I like to go swmming, playstation 3 with my friends, go around the city. I am so lucky because when I sad I can share it with some of my best friends. They really understand my situation, share ideas, give me advice, ecourage me and do something a like. Go somewhere to eat, to drink, go fishing with me. I think I have some really good friends. I also share things with my family, my mom, my dad. They guide me who to solve the difficult I get, who to ignore the sadness. Who about you, what do you usually do when you in this situation?

When I feel sad I need to talk to someone. It also helps that someone will comfort me when I need to cry. I usually talk to my Mom when I feel sad and to my best friends. Talking to them makes me feel fine after. Just by them listening to me and what I feel helps. Sometimes they don't even need to talk. Just a simple hug or pat at the back seems to ease the burden and sadness I feel.

Yeah, I agree with you. Mother is the most imporatant one in our life. We can share almost everything without doublts. I love my mother so much, she is the perosn who really really love me, I can feel that, and I am happy because I have a really really great mother. I think in my life, my mother always is the best one, no one can compared with her. I love her so much. Have a nice day! My friend.

You know, my friend. It is a mistakes that when you lonely. You ask you friends and go somewhere else to make you happy. It is better you said it to you parents. Because they are the most important parts in your life. Don't take away their responsibilities and replace it with your friends idea. It is painful to parents, to note that you prefer friends idea first before you go for them to share it... Parents, know best for their children. Friend, sometimes drive you to vices that parents, don't like you to do it... To be friends, with other people is not bad. But in terms to that situation. You must first consult your family or your mother and father, so that you can avoid any disrespect to your parents... Have a great day!

I do a lot of things when I was sad. I listen to music, I walk, I just do a lot of mellow things when I feel down.

It is nice to hear that many people can help you release your sadness. It is very useful, and lovely, to have such wonderful friends. If I am sad, the first thing I do is pray and cry. I need to release my inner feelings to God, then continue on with the solution. I can also write it down so that my sadness can be turned into writing. I will share with my friends only if they ask, because I don't want to burden them.

When you are sad, I advise you not to share with other. Unless the persons you want to share with your sadness are your close members of your family. If you simply tell everything to someone you assumed to be a good friend or trusted, then you will get involving yourself in trouble. When you are sad, your mood is down. Easily, the people around you can influence you and trap you. For instance, if another guy know that a lady just broke up or quarrelled with her boyfriend, then he will take the chance to approach you. He might pretend himself as a very perfect person to comfort you. He will pay everything to accompany you to drink to dance, then to "SLEEP". Later he will just disappear. This is want I have heard before. For me, I shall keep myself quite and sleep. Maybe, I shall go out with many friends at the same time. But never disclose your problem to other. REMEMBER.

Ok, I will remember your advice, but do you think you can share it with your best friends who you know for more than 5 yrars. I think it will be ok if the thinigs you discuss not a really important one. Like you said, if it's important people arround can influence and trap you. I agree with your ideas. Have a nice day!

I tend to keep it to myself, only after seeking counciling have I started to open up and I only do it to my wife. I try my hardest not to burden anyone, so I do still keep it very much to myself but if I feel really down then I open up as I quickly become happier that way.

When I'm sad, I prefer to be alone. I've never told another person, if I'm sad, Especially with the people around me, or with family. I do not want to share the sadness, I want to always look happy in front of them. So I prefer to hide my sadness. I prefer to endure my own sadness.

I don't want to be alone when I feel sad. I need someone to talk to. That's why when I am down I usually go to a friend's house or invite them for a coffee and have a nice conversation. I don't stay at home when I feel lonely. I would usually go out. Aside from having coffee with friends I'd watch a movie, go shopping, dine out, etc. Sometimes being online also helps. If I have no choice but to stay at home then I need to be online and have a chat with my very close and trusted friends.

If I feel sad, I tell to my friends. It's the way I open up to them and they also share their experiences. Even my partner is working, If I feel sad, I always send him a message. It's just to comfort myself that somebody cares for me.

Hmm in my case, when I go sad I usually open up to someone really close with me. Or when that person is not available or busy, I usually just sleep it off or think of other things. I'd get over it eventually.

Yeah, I know. I do the sams things. I always try to forget the sad and think about other things which help me relax, enjoy tv programs, go somewhere to relax, go swimming, go walking, go fishing, or playstation. Whenever I feel sad, I will try to make me more comfortable with other things. Have a nice day! Happy Myloting.

You are very fortunate to have people around you that you can turn to during troubled times, it is a real blessing and a gift to have loved ones close by. When I feel sad I listen to my favourite music try to look at whatever has caused my distress and handle as best I can. If things are really bad I will call a friend but I try to resolve things on my own if I can.

It'll depend on the level of sadness I currently have. If I'm very sad, then I will not have the mood to do anything. If I'm just a little bit upset, say, feeling lost or what, then I'll play my computer. I will also share it with my closest friend.

Good for you that you have a lot of friends to listen to you. Well as for me i too have a lot of friends and i know they are all willing to listen to me when im sad. But the thing is, i don't want to share my worries to them, i just don't feel like giving them the burden that im feeling. I also don't feel talking to my family. I keep my problems and worries by myself and sometime i do talk to God and cry to him..

You are so lucky to have some really good friends and a lovely family to support you.For my situation ,it's so different.When I am sad, I just sit there cry and cry, until I am too tired to carry on. I will go out , or go to travel . I think time is the best way to kill sad . But I really envy all the support you have .

well,when I fell sad,I like staying in a spare room sitting or laying down with some my faveriate songs to think first(what's going on?is there something wrong I did,things like that) ,then I,sometimes will pray,say someting to GOD,coz at that time,I don't believe anyone else, inclouding myself,speaking with my soul to my HOLY FATHER. Usually I feel better after praying. so I will eat some nuts ,like cookies,chocolate......
