How to use "Mopey" in context?
Mopey is a feeling of sadness and discomfort which can reportedly hamper a person's motivation, energy, and outlook on life. According to the academic journal "Personality and Social Psychology Review", people who are frequently mopey are more likely to suffer from lower self-esteem and internalised anger, and are also more likely to report problems with social interaction. A 2010 study published in "European Psychiatry" reported that mopey people are more likely to report negative moods, lower life satisfaction, and increased levels of stress.
