Sometimes, when we are alone, we often think about our lives that tend to be ordinary or even feel dissatisfied with the life we have. So how to be better?

1. Know yourself

Sometimes we feel depressed with the situation of our lives or even ourselves. This is always be the beginning of all the bad things that happen to ourselves and our lives, especially when we start to think about hurting ourselves or othe

Many people are not aware that they have mental illness, because the first step to change ourselves or our lives is to know ourselves. So what is mental illness?

According to www.mayoclinic.org, mental illness refers to a wide range of mental health conditions that affect your mood, thinking, and behavior. Examples of mental illness include depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, eating disorders, and addictive behaviors.

Examples of signs and symptoms include:

  1. Feeling sad or down
  2. Confused thinking or reduced ability to concentrate
  3. Excessive fears or worries, or extreme feelings of guilt
  4. Extreme mood changes of highs and lows
  5. Withdrawal from friends and activities
  6. Significant tiredness, low energy, or problems sleeping
  7. Detachment from reality (delusions), paranoia, or hallucinations
  8. Inability to cope with daily problems or stress
  9. Trouble understanding and relating to situations and to people
  10. Problems with alcohol or drug use
  11. Major changes in eating habits
  12. Sex drive changes
  13. Excessive anger, hostility, or violence
  14. Suicidal thinking

So when you start to feel the symptoms above, please contact your family or friends that you can trust to help you change and get to know yourself better, or you can contact a mental health professional.

2. Avoid all negative things

Once you know yourself better, start to know your life because your social is also a very influential factor in your life. When you are friends with good people, you will also become a good person. Therefore, start to avoid all negative things in your life such as bad friends, drugs/alcohol, excessive smartphone use, or eating too much fast food or canned drinks (except fruit juice).

You are still allowed to eat fast food or canned drinks, but in normal and not excessive amounts.

3. Make a schedule

The next step is to make a daily schedule so that you can determine when you are productive and when you are resting. This way, you will not feel emptiness and confusion with the life you have. You will always have plans in your life, so your life will know where it is going.

4. Determine your future

The last step is to determine your future. This future is not just a dream, but it can also be a new plan in your life. My suggestion is to make plans that are always positive or something that can make you happy. This way, you will be more excited to pursue it. The future will never stop before the world stops, so you can have as many plans as you want.

Remember that you need to take care of yourself. We are human beings, not robots. We have full rights to the life we have, so never let bad things take away your happiness, freedom, and future.
