Time and time again we see ourselves and others in those “life sucks” moments. But leaving them behind, learning, and growing in them is essential to personal growth and life progress. Here are 8 things to do when you feel like you've hit rock bottom.

1

Find your bearings. Evaluate your situation - how did you get here?

Reassess your life goals. We as individuals define and create our own successes, and those are measured by our goals.

2

Ensure your physical needs are met. You cannot do anything more or better for yourself unless you’re taken care of.

3

Invest in yourself. There is no better way to slow yourself down from escaping that life sucks moment than trying to do more when you’re burnt out.

5

Create a positive mental attitude. Practice rewriting your thoughts as they pass through your head.

Practice finding the positives. If you are struggling to get the negatives out of your head, write those down. And then flip them positively.

Consider getting a pet. Believe it or not owning a pet can be a great aide to get out of a bad situation.

Put yourself out there and try again. No matter what may have happened, do not ever be afraid to get up and try again.

There are plenty of ways to go about getting yourself back on track, and the only person that can find the best way to make that happen is you!
