Hey Ya’ll…

So when one is going through an ordeal in life, or a tough moment, what remedies do you practice to avoid going insane? Do u cry, mope around, try to put a brave face on, toughen up, swim in the Egyptian river of Denial etc etc?

Mine is cracking jokes at it’s best: around immediate family, taking them out for dinners, spending lavishly any luxury money can buy. Keeping a light heart, doing funny things, watching funny things, being a part of anything funny :no: Unfortunately, its good for the self but sometimes its good to be serious around others too since it can back fire the trying to keep a ‘light’ atmosphere:smack:

So tell what’s yours? and how well it works

well m like dat tooo..
N yes sumtimes i have tried this shopping therapy too n yes it helped . :biggthumb
But i think dat effects of being happygola doesnt stays for long…it mite help forgetting the blues…but sooner or later u have to deal wid it using logical reasoning!.

Good topic Daring V…

cracking jokes and cheering people up is a good thing but I need to be careful when I do that … sometimes, people get irritated of that too because there is often so much going on…

What I do, I normally tell them to read Surah Doha and its context/background… That Sura was revealed on Prophet:saw2: at the time when he was going through a depressing period. Then, there are so many ayaat in Quran (like surah baqarah has a whole section on how Allah tests us through different things… and all) … It works for me and for most of the people I talk to…

now dats wat i call Healing of Soul…the rite point from where to cope!
