for me what really helped was to do an activity nearly every day, or be around people/hang out with friends very often. doing activities every day makes you appreciate life a little more and distracts you. doesn’t have to be anything crazy. go on a hike, go to the library, go see some local live music, see what’s going on in your area

I've come to learn that my environment strongly dictates my inner thoughts. If I'm displeased with where I am in life, that will soak into my other possibly unrelated thoughts. Do everything in your power to control the external factors that bother you, and eventually your inner mind will follow. Don't like where you live? Move. Don't like how you look? Go to the gym. You feel like shit? Eat better food. Don't have money? Learn a skill or hone in on what skills you already have. Ruminating on thoughts is possibly the worst thing you can do, fill your mind with goyslop.

Another thing I forgot to add. Don't beat yourself up over being sad for like a day or two. You have to accept that you VVILL have days where you feel like shit. If you accept that, those days will feel way less bad. In the end, things have a way of working themselves out.
