Hopelessness can be a vicious cycle in that when one feels hopeless, they may engage in behaviours such as oversleeping, isolating, drinking alcohol, or overeating that usually only end up exacerbating feelings of hopelessness.  As such, when feeling hopeless one must often push themselves to do things that they might not feel like doing such as getting out of bed in the morning, talking to a friend, exercising, or eating a healthy meal.  Listen to host Ray Brown discuss hopelessness.
