Yes just one little thing
And our good feelings go out the window
Wap!
Like they were never here
The end of everything
Day spoilt, life changed ruined even, or so it feels
Misery descends
How can we be that fragile?
Sure it might be bad news
Maybe even very bad news
Something is wrong though when we seriously over react
When our balance with everything else goes because one little thing goes pear shaped
When something hits us we must be able to develop the skill not to fly off the handle or get angry
Nothing goes smoothly for ever
Life might be good for a while it might even be pretty stable
But one of the guarantees about today's world is that nothing but nothing is going to be very stable for very long
And that includes your life
Your relationships
Your work, your everything
So be warned for sure something else will go wrong
That's the way it is on Planet Earth at this time
Things are not stable but you can for sure learn to be more balanced
Put things in better perspective
Take a deep breath and understand that somehow life will move on
It will take effort and or time to sort things out, but yes things will continue one way or another
So finding our balance again protects us from lurching into depression
One little thing might be all it takes to get you going into one of your moods
Learn to find one little pleasure in your life to get you out again, look for one, find one
Immerse yourself in something where you have to be totally involved
Let go of frustration learn to live with disappointment
Life has many up and downs
Downs are as natural as ups although we would all love to believe that this is not really so
It is so therefore just as you learnt control with discipline and will power so learn to let go
This process begins to give you a balance in your emotions
Starts to help you calm down, letting go is a skill so learn it
Learn through deep breaths when things hit you
Learn to enjoy nature
Try yoga and meditation
All of them can help give you the ability to fight letting that "one little thing" set you off again

Antony, I thought Yoga is not quite a good thing to do?
Any yoga should be conducted by experienced teachers and unfortunately this is often not the case
Hatha yoga and Pranayama not so good as they can lead to physical and mental problems when badly instructed
However as most people do not take them to an extreme point they are usually OK when used as gentle exercise
Pranayama is the most dangerous yoga when undertaken by uninformed people as it can create all kinds of problems, even madness and death have been known to happen
We have a patient who has literally lost her mind as a result of practicing Pranayama and this is really sad to see
Thank you for letting me know! I understand better now.
