People normally recover from such low points and carry on.
Other conditions of sadness may require lifestyle changes such as resolving a rocky marriage, dropping bad habits, or removing oppressive factors from one s life. Still other situations may require the counsel of a good friend or priest or minister someone one can trust and discuss his or her troubles with. However, sometimes people don t recover from life s setbacks. Or they become depressed over insignificant matters or for no reason at all. The feelings of sadness may simply slow them down or can debilitate them to the point where they weep continuously, cannot function in life, or may consider suicide.
