Life is tough... Think of the last time that you dealt with an "adverse" situation. I know doing this might be the last thing that you want to do, but trust me and give it a try. Every one of you will have something different in your head. So will be the intensity of the situation. But how you felt and what you felt will be more or less the same. There is a whole train of bad thoughts that follow when you are dealing with a difficult phase in your life. According to Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, we all move through five stages of grief when we are dying or have suffered a catastrophic loss. The first stage is denial when the situation or the loss is so unthinkable; we don't want to believe it's true. Then we become angry. Angry with the world, angry with ourselves, angry because we are stuck in a rut, and angry because we are back to square one. We are so angry that we often think of giving up and not getting up, even at the most insignificant events, small hurdles.
