There are days when the air seems to have a whiff of positivity. You make the bus on time, breeze through the traffic, and excitedly skip to wherever you need to be. And then there are times when your alarm doesn’t go off for some reason, and you scramble to get ready just for a million things to go wrong. The sandwich you went to put in your mouth drops on the ground and the train you hoped to catch was so overcrowded all you could do was watch it take off into the distance. 

But it can always get worse, and people on this list are living proof of that. If you’re having a bad day yourself, scroll down to find comfort in knowing that others have it tougher than you, and don’t forget to share the most unfortunate things that turned your day upside down. 

While you’re at it, be sure to check out a conversation with an expert in positive psychology, Ruth Steggles, and positive psychology play consultant, Jeff Harry, who kindly agreed to give us a few tips on how to turn a bad day around.

The most up-to-date statistics show that on average, an American has 4 bad days a month. These add up to 48 days per year that are dedicated to bad moods and unfortunate events. 

However, this seems to be an improvement since 2018, when respondents reported having about 60 bad days a year.

Interestingly, the 2024 Avocado Green Mattress and Talker Research survey has found that Americans can pinpoint the exact time when it’s going to be a tough day. At precisely 8:36 a.m., they can already tell that their day won’t go as planned.

PSA: Go to the doctor for regular routine check ups, not just when you’re unwell. I just made a new-patient appointment for someone who just had a heart attack (and now needs a doctor) - they have to wait 7 months. This is in the US for someone with private insurance. Clinics just don’t have enough doctors to see patients quickly. If he were established with a doctor already the wait would be ~2-4 weeks.

A quarter of the time, people feel like there’s no way to turn the downright smile upside down. 48% of respondents even admitted to canceling plans or calling out of work to go back to sleep after waking up and sensing a bad day.

The most common causes of a tough day were getting up and feeling sick (35%), followed by poor sleep (31%), and waking up with a headache (29%). Misplacing the keys (26%) and leaving the phone at home (25%) were other top contenders. 

Additional reasons for things going south included running out of toilet paper, forgetting the wallet at home, sleeping through the alarm, and forgetting to charge the phone the night before.

On My Way To Start College And My Car Caught Fire With Everything I Own Inside Of It

On My Way To Start College And My Car Caught Fire With Everything I Own Inside Of It

No one was hurt in the slightest, and I was the only one in the vehicle when it caught fire. Thankfully, I could get everything out of the car before the fire got too bad and we had to back away. The fire department put it out very quickly, so no real damage was caused. Also, a little bit of context: my father was in his car, and I was between him and a truck. I sped up to try and pass the truck and try to close the distance between us. He was guiding me and had some of my things in his car. As I accelerated, I heard a pop, and my car began to slow down, and before I could react, it popped again and entirely died. I threw on my flashers pulled off to the side of the road and began trying to call my dad when the guy in the truck who was in front of me came up and started seeing if I needed help when we noticed the crackling of a fire under my hood. I popped the hood, and we saw the firewall was about to be fully engulfed by flames, so I called 911 while he began pulling all my things out.

The survey further revealed that unfortunate events were most likely to strike at the start of the week. 60% of respondents said that Mondays had the highest chance of going into a downright spiral. Work schedules and the back-to-school season were some of the most common contributing factors. 

To prevent bad days from occurring, respondents try to find time for themselves each day to relax (41%), make time for things they enjoy (37%), and ensure they are well-rested (35%). In fact, 71% of respondents said that sleep can make or break their day, and having enough of it can help to deal with things that may go wrong during it.

But even if a bad day is unpreventable, there are ways to turn it around. Ruth Steggles, an expert in positive psychology, suggests stopping and noticing what’s going on around you. “Identifying what is actually upsetting you then allows you to address the root cause. If it is something you can't change, look for some small thing you can change.”

Similarly, positive psychology play consultant Jeff Harry advises to sit with the feeling and let yourself fully experience the bad moment. "If you allow yourself to fully feel the bad moment, then you can let it go. If you don't allow yourself to feel it, you suppress it, meaning you hold on to it, and then you have more bad moments and suppress those until you have so many you are holding back, which results in not only a bad day, but many bad thoughts about yourself, which can affect your week, year, or your entire life."

Steggles also recommends having a list of things that a person enjoys doing so they can go back to it when going through a rough patch. Like reading a book, taking a bath, dancing around in the kitchen, or going for a walk. “It is helpful to know your feel-good tool kit,” she says.

Putting on some tunes may be the most simple remedy to a bad day. Listening to favorite songs can help a person to wind down and take their mind off of things for a while. “A music playlist that gradually moves from uncomfortable emotions to comfortable ones can be a healthy coping strategy and facilitate a positive mood change,” says board-certified music therapist Megan Hoffer.

It can be worse. The people hired to scare or shoot others because some tiff aren't the brightest. Happens often enough that the fireworks is deposited in the wrong mail box (in NL this is a slit in the entrance door) or bombs planred at the wrong door. Or the wrong person is killed.

When things go south, it might feel instinctive to get away from people. However, research suggests doing the opposite and reaching out to others, especially those who are happy and supportive of us. A friendly conversation, even a short one, can change our mood, lower blood pressure, and make us feel good.

Ugh Glass wool. I used to work construction and that stuff is the worst. Fiberglass insulation is bad but it's somewhat contained by the backing. The old glass wool is exactly what it looks like here. At least it's not asbestos. That's the absolute worst. You get into a remodel on an old building with asbestos and it's hazmat suit time. Tons of fun in the middle of summer. I don't miss those days.

Those who want to help out someone whose day isn’t going as anticipated should acknowledge their feelings but avoid reinforcing them or leaving them be, says Steggles. Therefore, she suggests telling them, "I am sorry you are feeling that way. What will you do to cheer yourself up?" or “I am sorry you feel that way? Is there anything we can do together to help you feel differently?"

“I recommend that you say "you feel" because it isn't the day that is bad, but their perception of their experience makes it so. I also always try to empower the other person to be responsible for changing things. Taking over and doing things for them may diminish them and make them feel worse,” Steggles explains.

From OP: I live in an apartment and they gained access through the building manager. It was pretty f*****g wild, they were literally in my room, in the dark, telling me to wake up. I was like “wtf what’s going on” while they repeatedly asked my name and who else lives here. I kept asking what’s going on and they told me to “pop up and we’ll talk about it”, I said “I’m naked under here!”, at which point one of them said “don’t panic, put some clothes on”, ushered the others out and shut the door. Stepped out into the lounge a few moments later and first thing I said was just to be clear I’m not consenting to you guys being in my home. One of them said “we have a warrant”, and gave me a copy. Another said “it’s ok, we are looking for this guy”, showing me unopened mail addressed to their suspect that I had marked return to sender but hadn’t got around to sending back — s**t like that is kept on a table by the door with my keys, etc. Asked me a few questions and took my contact details.

About 5 years ago, I came down with some sort of bug which hit me when I got up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, and halfway there, passed out and did a faceplant on the floor. I didn't break any teeth, but my lower teeth took a chunk of flesh from inside my mouth, and years later I can still feel the divot with my tongue.

This is precisely why we cut down the really tall trees in the backyard. One in particular would have taken down most of the roof if it fell.

That happened in my town. They replaced 100 year old water pipes in the streets all over town not telling us that we were going to pay for it attached to our property taxes for the next decade or so. I feel for anyone on a fixed income. Everyone is angry but we have new water pipes so what can we do.

Wouldn't your child be in an actual room by now and not in the emergency room? Most hospitals have cots or chairs that fold into pseudo-beds for parents to stay with their children. I've never seen anyone have to sleep on the floor like this.

I Fell This Morning

I Fell This Morning

I work as the emergency manager for a hospital in New Orleans, and we’re currently bracing for Hurricane Francine to touch down as a category 2. I had to report to the hospital early this morning when I fell down the stairs at my house.
The pain is radiating through my knee up to my groin. I was hopping around first and moved to crutches before the physician in the virtual visit told me he wanted me in a wheelchair until we could get X-rays. Thankfully, I just found out it’s only sprained, but they’re putting me in a boot, and I’ll be on crutches for the next couple of weeks before getting into physical therapy.

You can remove it with the help of a magnet, I believe. Put it close to/on the white plastic , and pull the other half out (it's a pin)

Fun Fact: When your phone says "Missed alarm" it almost certainly means the alarm went off, and continued until the phone decided the alarm wasn't going to result in a response from the user.
