5 - Pretend that everything is fine

Don't suppress your emotions. They'll build up without you realizing it, leaving you at risk for a serious breakdown or plunge you into a dark depression. Talk out what's happening in your head with your best friend or anyone you're close to. You'll feel a lot better, having someone there to listen and offer encouraging words of support.
