Swings - Yeah, Mood swings

Have you ever felt relieved at the sight of a positive energy wave arriving at the doorstep of your mind ? Probably yes. Have you ever dreaded the next wave of negativity ? Probably yes. It's hard to calculate the exact dates of their arrival but yes, they do arrive silently often, and leaves one feeling good or bad in the aftermath. Why do these situations arise ? Due to multiple reasons. Let's not delve deeper into that. Perhaps these are things n conditions hard to ignore or let go. So, why not make peace with them n co exist peacefully ? Yes, 'm not talking shit, for people like Winston Churchill have had similar conditions and he devised his own way to deal with it. His periods of darkness was named. Yes, named the 'black dog'. Reason? It is that transferring one's negativity to a second person in theory helps one stay away from blaming oneself at times and that actually had positive effects on his  future acts during his entire lifetime. Whenever he was low, he used to say that his black dog was responsible for his unhappiness and not himself. It relieved him of a lot of the stress caused due to self pity and other similar factors.

What I believe is that life has it's own terms n conditions and more often than not one has to come to  terms with those. The quicker, the better. No one could escape those but only those who have worked hard and diligently enough to overcome the stress caused by those. That means no escape but a better deal. I feel that there are certain points that might actually help one deal with mood swings, negativity and depression. Trying to fight a monster might lead to more bad results when done without proper equipment. But proper street smart skills to tackle those in a band-aid quick fix manner to live for a moment, howsoever short it is, just for the sake of that very moment again, can actually help a lot when used regularly, inducing a notion of positivity in one's self. Let's go to those points. I hope that most of you can relate to as why I have added these points.

• If you are in a bad relationship, try to make peace with your partner or just avoid him/her (Helps, toughbut possible)...Think of the long terms effects of his/her presence or absence and decide soon
• Being indecisive makes one anxious, try to be decisive always(Harder but not impossible)
• Meditate ( I am planning to start it from tomorrow morning)
