Well today I just felt awful. Why? You may well ask. I don't actually have any idea. I had no reason to feel the way I did but I just felt awful, fed up, grumpy and just down in the dumps. I met up with a friend very briefly and she asked me what was up because I looked so fed up but I couldn't tell her, I didn't have a reason. She text me later saying she was concerned about me because it is just not like me to be this way. I told her I was fine, just not sure what was bothering me. I am still none the wiser but know that I will wake up tomorrow like today never happened. Do you ever get days like that? Do you always know what is bothering you?

I think it is usual that in some of the days in our life, we will feel down and no mood to do anything. I am feeling moody and down these few days because my area here is very hot without rain for nearly a week. I feel really not comfortable to go out during these days. Hopefully, you will be back feeling happy like usual. Because feeling depression for a long time is not good for our health...

Hi there myfb2009 It has been quite the opposite here in the uk until yesterday when we have finally seen the sun and we have had rain and cloud for at least a week! So the weather can work both ways eh? I hope you get some cooler weather soon and long may the sun shine in the UK haha Thanks for your response

Thanks for your comment. Since from yesterday, my area here was blessed with rain for a few hours and makes the weather slightly cool than a few days ago. Hope the sun still shine in your area, too...

Well yeah I've had plenty of days when I felt fed up and stressed, but for me there's is usually an obvious reason, my reason are typically because my life is not going they I hoped it would in fact recently I received some rather disappointing news that will delay my plans, but oh well I think things will work out I just have to stay strong and keep a positive attitude. I'm sorry that you are or were feeling upset and stressed, maybe you should figure out why. I mean there must be some reason for your stress maybe you have some form of depression if not there could be something else in your life that was pushed back in your subconscious that's bothering you I hope you feel better soon.

Hi ya apples99 I am sure there is a reason somewhere if I dig deep enough haha. I am feeling fine again today as I expected to but I hate feeling like that as it is so out of character for me. Many thanks for your response

Sorry you are feeling glum my dear friend, if I could be as bold to say that it might be your diet and a low sugar level that is causing you to feel flat and low? I suffer with depression, mood swings and SAD, I do not like this time of the year and the heat dampens my mood heavily, so between June and September my depression is at its highest. Again part of the reason why I go to the gym is to substitute the antidepressants and to help my moods. Have you thought about going swimming? Or taking yourself for a pampering? Treat yourself that will boost your spirit, or just go for a walk. I wish I was closer to the ocean because for me the ocean is a great stress reliever. Sending you a big Wolfie hug to cheer you up and I can so relate to how you are feeling.

Hi ya wolfie my lovely friend I knew you would understand hahaha. I am sure you are so right, I think that coming out of the routine I had got myself into has been disrupted this week due to the kids being off school so that might have a lot to do with it too. The weather is enough to get you down, even last week I had taken to wearing socks to bed again!! I know I say I am like you and don't like it when it is scorching outside but like today the sun is out but it is a comfortable heat that is the way I like it. Now it is tomorrow if you get my drift and as predicted, I am feeling better. Thanks wolfie

Yes sometimes I have so much going at one time and with the many offline issues it tends to linger in my subconscious. Therefore though I might wake up fine after a bit I start feeling blue and sad and nothing or no one did anything to me so at times it is unexplainable and I just have to work through it. I do hope things look up for you.

I also have such bad days from time to time,and I don't seem to find an explanation for my bad state of mind,but it usually happens at the beginning of a week or when I have little money,so these factors have a certain influence on my mood,but they can't explain it alone.So,whenever I feel that I have a bad day without knowing precisely why,I try to take things a little easier and chill out and,of course,think of something pleasant.There's got to be something to make me feel better that day,and generally that's what happens eventually.

ya i know what you mean. i ordered a ring from ebay which came today and it was too small for me and my mom was supposed to pick up my daughter to get her hair done and my mom forgot (which she never does) so my hubby was driving all over the countryside trying to find her and lost two hours of pay. so i am grumpy! also, the heat makes me grumpy too and i pulled a muscle in my arm and i type for a living so its taking forever to heal! grrrrrrrr

generally speaking, if I'm grumpy, I need to go to BED! I won't say I've got a normally sunny disposition, but if I am really grumpy, I probably should've stayed in bed and slept some more! (I have had the roommate tell me go to to bed when I get to bad!)

Hi ya ElicBxn Yes it might have been due to a lack of sleep, my kids are on half term here and we have had all and sundry sleep over and other people's kids always seem to get up at unearthly hours which I don't mind because they are quiet but what I do mind is when they wake my kids up who are not so quiet hahahaa Thanks for your response

Today I did but often do not know the reason why I feel down. It is much better when we can identify the cause but sometimes we can't. As you are young it may be an inbalance of hormones but I cannot use that reason anymore I do hope that you do feel better tomorrow and are your usual happy self. You are always so upbeat on Mylot and I admire you so much

Hi ya Cynth Aww bless ya, thanks, I too admire you, living somewhere that is not your homeland and having family living all over the place it can't be easy for you but you never seem to show it. I think that is why my friend was concerned about me as it is so so rare for me to be like that, it is usually me consolling her hahaha. Anyway you got me thinking actually as it may have been what would be the time of the month for me hahaha How wouldn't I know that? Well I have the implant so I don't get periods and haven't had since I had it put in so I have completely forgotten when it would be because I don't really need to know hahaha so maybe I just had some of the symptems that tend to go with that hahaha Thanks cynth always love to hear from you

Hi there igatiful_badass It is helpful to know what it is that bothers us but is very frustrating when we just can't put our finger on it. I am ok today so I guess that is all in the past now haha Thanks for your response
