How To Get Through Tough Times

”OMG, how do you get through that?” ”Oh shit, how do you deal with that?”

Do you know those questions, questions you might even ask yourself from time to time? Or do you crumble under pressure and hear this:

“Oh, I am so sorry. Are you okay now that your prescribed psychopharmaceutical is kicking in?”

The Danish pharmaceutical industry is one of the most lucrative industries in Denmark, and in this quasi-socialist nation, doctors hand out addictive psychopharmaceuticals as if they were candy. It’s good money for doctors and pharmaceutical companies alike. And some doctors will try to push psychopharmaceutical and other addictive drugs on you, no matter what.

The way I see it, human beings managed to get through life, even the toughest days, before the pharmaceutical industry came up with addictive happy pills. And that is still an option. I’m not judging; I’m just sharing my beliefs and how I do things.

The only thing I can accept being addicted to is coffee.

How To Get Through Hard Times

So, how do I get through and deal with hard times, apart from coffee? Well, my method is the offspring of almost ten years of being persecuted by Danish extremists and criminals, which has, truth be told, now and then left me in the dumps.

Here’s a brief overview of my method for maintaining balance, a positive spirit, and sanity when the world around you is horrible.

I Keep Calm.

I stay calm and balanced at all times. Nervous and stressed individuals make poor decisions. Apart from living with my almost 80-year-old mother, which has taught me self-control beyond what I thought humanly possible (!), writing, cooking, and yoga are my go-to methods for shutting out the world, relaxing, and releasing all my feelings, including my hatred.

Some days, I think it would be better for me and more de-stressing to beat the living s*** out of one of the monsters; but that would be illegal, and I am not a monster, so I don’t do that. I write out my hatred, which brings us to point number two.

I Hate.

I hate from the bottom of my heart; I hate this group of monsters, anyone who has helped them, anyone who has housed them, anyone who has libeled me, anyone who refused me help, and the system and state that makes it possible for these monsters to hunt people at will – people who got in their way, witnesses to their crimes as well as human beings they consider worthless – and I wish all of the above a fiery stay in hell.

Leaving my wishes for the future aside, in my experience, hate enables you to do what you have to do because it strengthens you and makes you more determined. And strength and determination are what you need to get through bad times. So, I don’t suppress this very human feeling.

When I’m up to my neck in it, I fertilize on my own hatred until I’m in the clear; then, I can be a good person again if I feel the need for it.

I Contextualize.

I contextualize. What do I mean by that? I mean, I find a situation or a person I know who has made it through something worse than what I’m going through. I see my problem in this context until I’ve convinced myself that things could be worse. If this person could get through what they had to, I can get through whatever I have to. I contextualize my life and conclude:

Things could be worse, a lot worse, and I will get through this!

Summing-up

To Get Through Tough Times:

Keep Calm
Hate – or use whichever emotion that energizes you
Contextualize

On that, in my opinion, inspiring note, until next time, remember to get your facts straight, and that whatever good times you have won’t come back as bad times!
