This is a comic about not whining about your problems. Heck, if you obsess over a problem (even inside your head) and you are not making progress on it, forget about it and do happy things.
Bawwing about stuff for the sake of crying not only hurts you, but it is god honestly socially abrasive, because your misery will affect your kind and sympathetic friends: they FEEL your pain. Work with your problems constructively if you can, if not, don't deal with them.
I got this advice from a friend who works with PTSD people; every now and then, they'll be overwhelmed by their old traumas - but talking about them wont do anything but ruin their day. Is this an unsympathetic way of thinking? Yes and no. Sure it's cruel, but sometimes it's necessary to kick people into having other things in their life than their problems. Every minute they are obsessing over their issues, their issues have power over them, they are not spending time improving their life, and that's the truth. But this goes for many normal life problems too, the ones in the past or other ones you have no power over.
While you shouldn't "bottle up", but "talking about it" is not always as useful as you think... next time you do it, take time to evaluate what it did for you. Yes, it's opposite of what your instincts say.
The top two images are the whining method
The bottom two are the: think of nice things method.
If you meet a person who bawws a lot for attention, well.. I've begun to notice it's almost a little like trolls, just a guilt trip troll D:
