Why Do We Feel Sad?

Why do we feel sad?
Are these sad feelings nothing more than a part of the usual cycle of mood swings? No they are not; these sad feelings are a message sent to you by your subconscious mind, in order to take an action.

Sad feelings are like all the other emotions we experience, they are an indication that something is going wrong in our lives. The root causes for sad feelings are uncountable but they can be summarized under one big category, Unsolved Problems.

Feeling Sad without Knowing Why
Feeling sad without knowing why is usually the result of having too many accumulated problems in your subconscious mind to the extent that you don’t know which of them is the real reason for your sad feelings.
Some people escape solving their problems by taking drugs, others escape them by sleeping while a third category escapes by going into a new relationship. There are hundreds of methods that people use to burry their problems deeper in their subconscious minds, but the subconscious mind never gives up, it always replys back by sending a more intense sad feeling in order to wake you up.

Feeling sad all the time is one of the symptoms of depression. You may be feeling sad because you are depressed. Personally, I consider depression a message too telling you that hope was lost and that you should take actions to restore it.

Whether it’s an unsolved problem or whether it’s a problem that is buried into your subconscious mind, the result will be sad feelings. The only way to deal with these sad feelings is to solve what can be solved and to accept what cannot be solved; only then your sad feelings will go away.
If you don’t like this approach, you can start it the other way around, by starting a journey towards feeling happy.
