Disappointment
Growing ... again
Disappointment is the feeling of sadness or frustration when things don't go as expected.
It's part of mental wellness because it offers a chance to learn and bounce back.
Like a setback in a game, it teaches us to adapt and try new strategies.
Embracing disappointment helps us grow by building resilience and finding new paths to success.
It's like a stepping stone on our journey to better mental well-being.

Disappointment
Remedies about relationships
The quality of your relationship matters. Sometimes the people you are seeking support from may be unequipped to give you what you need.
Living a full, abundant life will require you to be ok with disappointing people.
Stop expecting people to know what you are thinking, feeling, or need from your tone, mood or energy. Be willing to express yourself clearly and directly.
Missing someone is not an indicator that they belong in your life.
Love and struggle do not have to coexist.
You do not have to be a strong friend or family figure all the time.
Normalize selective sharing. Everyone you know does not have to be in your business.
