Everybody has blue days. These are miserable days when you feel lousy， grumpy， lonely and utterly exhausted. Days when you feel small and insignificant， when everything seems just out of reach. You can’t rise to the occasion. Just getting started seems impossible. On blue days you can become paranoid that everyone is out to get you. (This is not always such a bad thing.) You feel frustrated and anxious， which can induce a nail-biting frenzy that can escalate into a triple-chocolate-mud-cake-eating frenzy in a blink of an eye！ On blue days you feel like you’re floating in an ocean of sadness. You’re about to burst into tears at any moment and you don’t even know why. Ultimately， you feel like you are wandering through life without purpose. You’re not sure how much longer you can hang on and you feel like shouting， “Will someone please shoot me！” It doesn’t take much to bring on a blue day. You might just wake up not feeling or looking your best， find some new wrinkles， put on a little weight， or get a huge pimple on your nose. You could forget your date’s name or have an embarrassing photograph published. You might get dumped， divorced or fired， make fool of yourself in public， be afflicted with a demeaning nickname， or just have a plain old bad-hair day. Maybe work is a pain in the butt. You’re under major pressure to fill someone else’s shoes， your boss is picking on you， and everyone in the office is driving you crazy. You might have a splitting headache， or a slipped disk， bad breath， a toothache， chronic gas， dry lips， or an ingrown toenail. Whatever the reason， you’re convinced that someone up there doesn’t like you. Oh what to do， what to do？
Well， if you’re like most people， you’ll hide behind a flimsy belief that everything will sort itself out. Then you will spend the rest of your life looking over your shoulder， waiting for everything to go wrong all over again. All the while becoming crusty and cynical or a pathetic， sniveling victim. Until you get so depressed that you lie down and beg the earth to swallow you up or， even worse， become addicted to Billy Joel songs. This is crazy， because you’re only young once and you’re never old twice. Who knows what fantastic things are in store just around the corner？
After all， the world is full of amazing discoveries， things you can’t even imagine now. There are delicious， happy sniffs and scrumptious snacks to share. Hey， you might end up fabulously rich or even become a huge superstar (one day). Sounds good， doesn’t it？ But wait， there’s more！ There are handstands， and games to play and yoga and karaoke and wild， crazy， bohemian dancing. But best of all， there’s romance， which means long dreamy stares， whispering sweet nothings， cuddles， smooches， more smooches and even more smooches， a frisky love bite or two， and then， well， anything goes. So how can you find that blissful “just sliding into a hot bubble bath” kind of feeling？ It’s easy.
First， stop slinking away from all those nagging issues. It’s time to face the music. Now just relax. Take some deep breaths (in through the nose and out through the mouth). Try to meditate if you can. Or go for a walk to clear your head. Accept the fact that you’ll have to let go of some emotional baggage. Try seeing things from a different perspective. Maybe you’re actually the one at fault. If that’s the case， be big enough to say you’re sorry (It is never too late to do this). If someone else is doing the wrong thing， stand up and say， “That’s not right and I won’t stand for it！” It’s OK to be forceful (It’s really okay to blow raspberries). Be proud of who you are， but don’t lose the ability to laugh at yourself(This is a lot easier when you associate with positive people). Live every day as if it were your last， because one day it will be. Don’t be afraid to bite off more than you can chew. Take big risks. Never hang back. Get out there and go for it. After all， isn’t that what life is all about？
I think so too.
人人都會有憂鬱的時候。這些令人痛苦的日子，會讓你感到惡心、煩躁、孤獨、身心疲憊，你會覺得自己很渺小，總是被忽視，好像什麽事情都做不好。你難以振作，重新開始仿佛是根本不可能的。憂鬱的那幾天，你會變成妄想狂，好像每個人都會吞掉你一樣。（其實情況並不總是那麽糟）你感覺失落和憂慮，你會瘋狂地咬指甲，甚至在一眨眼的工夫就吃掉一大塊巧克力蛋糕！憂鬱、煩躁的日子裏，你會覺得自己仿佛漂浮在悲傷的海洋裏。你會毫無緣由地突然痛哭。最終，你感覺自己在生命中漫無目的地徘徊。
你不知道自己還能堅持多久，隻想大叫：“誰能一槍打死我！”一點兒小事就會帶來憂鬱、煩悶的一天。也許你一覺醒來，感覺上或看起來不是最好的自己，隻是發現又有了新的皺紋，又胖了幾斤，鼻子上長了個大痘痘。也許你忘記了約會對象的名字，或被刊登了一張令人尷尬的照片。也許你被人拋棄，離了婚，或被炒魷魚，被當眾愚弄，被人起低賤的綽號，或每天都留著一頭難看的舊發型，或許工作常讓你碰壁。在巨大壓力之下，你接替了別人的位置，老板對你百般刁難，辦公室裏的每個人都令你發狂。你也許會頭疼欲裂，或摔跤、口臭、牙疼、放屁、嘴唇幹裂或指甲長到肉裏。無論是什麽原因，你都深信，總是有人不喜歡你。哦，該怎麽做，我該怎麽辦啊？
如果跟多數人一樣，你躲起來，自欺欺人地認為所有的問題都會自動解決，那麽你將會用盡餘生回頭張望，等待做錯的事重新來過。同時，你會變得脾氣暴躁、憤世嫉俗，或變成可憐巴巴、涕淚橫流的受害者。直到你沮喪地躺下來，請求地麵將你吞噬，或更糟糕的是，沉溺於比利？喬的歌曲中無法自拔。這真是瘋狂，因為你的青春隻有一次，絕不會有第二次。又有誰會知道拐角處還藏著什麽奇跡呢？
當今世界上充滿了令人驚奇的發現。有些事情你甚至無法想象。你可以分享那些有著令人迷醉的香氣、美味絕倫的點心。你也許最終會擁有驚人的財富，甚至（某天）成為萬人矚目的超級巨星。聽起來不錯，是吧？但是等等，還有更多呢！你可以玩遊戲或演奏樂器，還可以享受瑜伽、卡拉OK以及狂野、**不羈的舞蹈。但是所有的事情之中，最美好的還是浪漫的愛情。這就意味著擁有長久的、夢幻般的凝視，耳邊的甜言蜜語，無休無止的擁抱親吻，一兩個愛意綿綿的調皮咬痕，然後可能會發生任何事。這種幸福的感覺就好像滑入一個熱氣騰騰的泡泡浴池一樣。那你怎樣才能找到這種感覺呢？很簡單。
首先要做的就是不要再逃避那些讓你煩惱的事情，是時候去麵對了。現在就讓自己放鬆一下，深呼吸（用鼻子吸氣，再用嘴呼出）。如果可以的話，試著沉思冥想，或散步清醒大腦。你必須放下感情的包袱，接受現實。試著換一個角度來看待問題，也許問題就出在你自己身上。如果真是如此，那就大大方方地說“對不起”（永遠不要覺得太遲而不去做）。如果是他人做錯了，那就站出來說：“那是不對的，我不會同意。”可以做得強硬一點兒（有時還可以發出噓聲）。為自己而驕傲，但不要忘了適度地自嘲（當你和積極的人交往時，這就非常容易了）。把生活中的每一天都當做生命的末日，因為它遲早會來的。不要害怕嚐試超出自己能力的事情，要敢於承擔巨大的風險，決不退縮，勇敢地走出這一步並努力去做好它。畢竟，生活不就是這樣嗎？
我也是這樣想的。
心靈小語
生活中有快樂，也有憂傷，每個人都會有憂鬱的時候。當被壞情緒困擾的時候，不要逃避現實，不要讓恐懼充滿你的生活。把每一天當做生命的末日，勇敢地麵對生活，接受挑戰。
