DerekS Champion Author Seattle Posts:3,751 Points:685,025 Joined:Mar 2008	Message Posted: Aug 10, 2011 3:20:48 PM Ignore DerekS Report Abuse What do you do when you are not happy? I suppose one could look at the bright side and think "I don't have cancer and I have some money in the bank". One can also resolve the problems, whatever they are. They could be expensive plumbing problem (can be fixed, so don't let that get you down), trouble at work (try to resolve the problem and even position yourself for a new job if it comes to that), marital problems (try to resolve things to the best situation for all parties), etc. Good luck! Writing these things just helped me a bit. Things are not so bad! It might be just slowly working on whatever problems you have.

What do you do when you are not happy?

I suppose one could look at the bright side and think "I don't have cancer and I have some money in the bank". One can also resolve the problems, whatever they are. They could be expensive plumbing problem (can be fixed, so don't let that get you down), trouble at work (try to resolve the problem and even position yourself for a new job if it comes to that), marital problems (try to resolve things to the best situation for all parties), etc.

Good luck! Writing these things just helped me a bit. Things are not so bad! It might be just slowly working on whatever problems you have.
