-You are not alone. You are surrounded by people who care about you and want to support you through your difficulties. So ask for help from your friends and family. Or even online support groups, It can be very beneficial to talk to someone who can relate to what you're going through.

-Keep perspective. In the grand scheme of things, whatever is causing you sadness may seem like a big deal right now, but it probably isn't. Therefore, make an effort to take a step back, consider the big picture, and see the situation for what it truly is.

-Remind yourself that this is just a phase. Sadness is temporary and it will eventually pass.
