When life gets you down, it's important to pull yourself back up and keep going. Constant negative energy is something almost all people will experience during a time period in their life. Whether it's a group of friends, one person or a whole community in general, it happens and it is anything but an easy experience. It's especially difficult if you have not gone through it before, but it's something to learn how to face right away before it gets overwhelming. Here are some suggestions of activities and things you can do to focus on something more positive and escape the situation to the best of your ability.
