Keep a journal; it is a great pressure valve for emotions. It's your stage. Tell the audience exactly how you feel about things in explicit detail, how maligned and hassled you are. Every day you have a chance to curse everyone, to rant and rave, to let go of anger and frustration on the pages.
What we put our attention on grows stronger in our lives. Dont just focus on difficulties and failures in your journal. Every night, write down at least one nice, positive thing that happened during the day; a compliment, time out to look at the clouds, a kindness shown you.
Rather than concentrating on how bad things are, focus on the fact that they could be much worse. Psychiatrists call this downward comparison. You think of someone worse off not to gloat, but to gain a new perspective on your situation and new understanding about how to cope.
My time for doing so: I have had a free lunch today. I have been told that I am charming. Work is smooth-running. Anis touched my face with her tiny hands.
