But I’ve learned that even when I’m having a terrible day, it can always get worse. To prove this point, Bored Panda has scoured the internet to find photos from people who are probably having a much worse day than you. So enjoy scrolling through these photos that are so unfortunate you can’t help but laugh, and be sure to upvote the situations that make you thankful for your own luck today! Apparently, about fourth fifths of those polled admitted that work-related stress was a significant factor in many of their bad days. But two thirds also noted that not getting enough sleep always sets them up for a bad day. Other factors that might turn a good day upside down are feeling sick, worrying about money, having plans cancelled or watching your favorite sports team lose. If you want to stop the entire day from being cursed, HuffPost recommends first just taking a breath and calming down for a moment. It’s easy to become stressed or overwhelmed when things aren’t going according to plan. But if you take a moment to relax and think about your situation, you might be able to approach the rest of the day with a more level head. It also helps to be realistic. If you’re not actually experiencing the worst case scenario, you still have something to be thankful for. Some of the best advice I ever read when I was in a “Why me?” mood while mourning a tragedy was: Why not you? Bad things happen every single day, and unfortunately, none of us are immune to them. No, they aren’t fun to experience, but they are inevitable. Follow Bored Panda on Google News! Follow us on Flipboard.com/@boredpanda! Please use high-res photos without watermarks Ooops!
