We cannot change climate change alone. Even poverty, racism, sexism and other pressing problems of modern society need collective action and systemic change - but that's no reason to throw a gun at the corn, because your kindness will pay off. Happiness is hidden in goodness and justice.

Being sad, depressed, nihilistic and defeated is a human condition that is familiar to everyone - but it is necessary to distinguish between occasional and manageable hardships and between serious forms of depression, bipolar disorder and other conditions that threaten an individual's life.

If it is a short period of grief, you can try to expand your world and thoughts with the Focus-Wheel method.
