  You're Unhealthy

  Image Source

  You can't expect to feel good if you're filling your body with junk food, skipping meals or eating too much or not enough. Healthy eating habits are a key part of feeling good and just as important as getting enough sleep and exercise. Your body needs vitamins and minerals to function properly. Yeah, it might sound like a lot of work to stay healthy but if you want to get the most out of your body you need to give it the best. If not you may end up with serious issues like high blood pressure, diabeites, and heart disease. Stop drinking more and more coffee so you can keep going, instead get enough sleep, eat a healthy breakfast, take your vitamins and get some exercise. After a while you'll notice that you have more natural energy and actually feel happier. Give it a try and see if being healthy makes you feel better.

  You're Lonely

  Being lonely for too long can actually make you feel physically sick after a while. Make sure that you are getting the love you need and deserve by surrounding yourself with others who care for you. Easier said than done right? If you're feeling this way it's probably because you don't have many people in your life who you can connect with. If you can, connect or reconnect with people you love and who love you. Meet new people and build new relationships. You can go online and find people to connect with. Or even work on your relationship with yourself. Connect with God and build a relationship there. Do what you need to do to feel loved and connected to the world and someone in it. Maybe it's time to make a change and take a risk to meet someone new. If you keep going on the path of loneliness it will just get worse and harder to make relationships. Remember, relationships take time and effort. And many people are forgiving, just remember to be forgiving to them as well.

  You're Bored

  The reason you're feeling off is because you're bored. You've been doing the same thing for quite some time now and it might be time to change it up. When's the last time you did something fun or new? Maybe you need to change things up a bit? When you do something for a really long time it becomes routine and boring. You may even feel stuck in a rut because you keep doing the same thing day after day. You'll start to feel uninspired and maybe even wonder if this is all life has to offer. Don't allow yourself to feel like that, change your routine or add in something fun or new. It could be as small as starting a new hobby or as big as getting a new job. Stimulate your mind, learn something new, travel, create something; there is so much life has to offer. Find something that interest you and adds excitement to your life.

  It sounds like you need a break. There's a lot going on in your life right now and you deserve to take a moment and let yourself just breathe and relax. You might not be able to control everything but you can control how you react to it. Bad things can of course be overwhelming, but don't forget that good things can cause you to become overwhelmed as well like a new baby or job. It's okay to feel this way. Sometimes things are just too much to handle. If you have a lot going on take some time out for yourself and give yourself a much deserved break. You can't do it all, everyone needs help. You're just human. Go easy on yourself. If a break isn't enough then get to the root of the problem. Is your job just too stressful? Do you need more help with the kids? Do you want to spend more time at home? Is there something you could cut out of your life that would take some stress away? Find out what is causing you to feel overwhelmed and see what you can do about it.
