Everybody has bad days, and some people feel like they have more than others.
Much as it can take its toll on our body and mind, the occasional setback or flop era is merely a part of the cycle of life that everybody arrives at at one point or another. Things can go wrong, and sometimes that happens in new and horrible ways that we couldn’t have even imagined before they happen. It is only fair to feel miserable and down on our luck when it is our turn to go through this experience. It’s heavy!
While it is little consolation when we are right at the lowest of our low point, it is not like feeling this bad is something that is unique to us. Arguably, it is an integral part of being human to feel these things, and something that helps us appreciate it when the going gets good again. We need that reference point as a reminder that we do not struggle for nothing, no matter what the nihilists want to say.
If there is one thing that makes the pain of going through it feel a little lighter, it is that there is plenty of internet humor out there that deals with this particular topic. Some of it may be more relatable than funny, but the very fact that it proves others have felt the same should be enough to help anybody who is just taking things day by day right now. There is a light at the end of this somewhere.
