Happy, Sad, Angry or all of the above?

 

Sometimes you’re the statue and sometimes you are a pigeon sitting on it…

Life is unpredictable. Life makes you play different roles. We are different in office, different at home, different with our parents and different with our spouse. And then there are movies about split personality whereas an average normal person plays at least 5 roles every day. Girls mostly, have mood swings which can be also called seasonal depression which mostly happens during winters. Also, in rains and summers. If a person has an abnormal level of one or several of certain neuro transmitters in their brain, it may result in having mood swings or a mood disorder.

We are not complicated. It’s just those mood swings that keep our feelings muddled. Also observed in women, ladies and females. But men are moodier than women. They get bored easily and have to be distracted from time to time. Oo ..Brownie! There is specie of cockroaches that can fly! Where was I? Yeah, so the typical symptoms of our swingy neurons include lack of energy, fatigue, drowsiness, and oversleeping with a side order of naps. Other symptoms include decreased focus, difficulty in concentrating and stalking profiles on social media. People who suffer from a depression often withdraw. Most often that withdrawal is from an ATM machine to pay for the wine that will combat the shift in mood because we all know is that wine makes one happy. Life and tacos go hand in hand. You need something or someone to go with it, be it salsa or a dip or family/ spouse or friends in the latter case of course, you wouldn’t eat your husband with a taco OR would you haha! I am hungry now.

My main point is that in the midst of the roles you play, do not lose yourself. You may be a responsible wife and a loving mother and the most sincere daughter in law BUT do not turn into an amoebic personality inside. You know the sticky object (I thought it was sticky and gooey in the biology book) “amoeba”, that takes any shape and has a nucleus inside. In our case, the spine should stay and it stays for good. Do not lose it.

Chocolate can make one happy, but ask someone who works in a chocolate factory and smells chocola all day, he would loath it because it would be a part of his daily job. So it is clear that what comforts you and makes you happy might not comfort someone else. It is an individual’s comfort pick. Do different things from time to time. The humdrum would be avoided in that case. Pack your bags and go to an unknown place once in 2 months, do not always plan! Be spontaneous and explore the adventures of life. Your mood becomes mundane and yearns for a change, this is when stress builds up and normal events makes one happy sad and angry all at the same time. Hide the laptop and mobile under your bed and explore the roads. Spend time physically not the e-way (watsapp, facebook, emails and sms’s). This would help you to distract from your mood swings.

The author is so wise that she preaches what she blogs about. She went for a long nice walk after writing the post. She also has a list of her favourite things that she does from time to time to reach out to the 5-year old within. We don’t call that immature like earning a lot of money and saving it to spend on buying shoes, clothes and bags.
