How to Deal with a Difficult Situation - Strategy Three: Carry the Weight

Carry That Weight - Edison Rex edisonrex.etsy.com

If denial or power animals fail you, retreat.

It's probably better to just sit with the problem, so get out your favorite comforter and curl up on the couch and think deep thoughts, examine your issue from all angles to the point it feels that one more thought just might crush you.

Don't you dare do anything to feel better. Stay away from the ice cream in the freezer, do not go shopping, stop channel surfing or any kind of activity that distracts you from your problem. Just sit there and take it.

Do pet the dog and be kind to those who live with you. No need for everyone to suffer because you're miserable.

More than likely, you'll carry the weight until you decide you don't need it. For all our sake's, let's hope that's soon.
