I read that 2017 has a worse fortune for Pigs than the year of the Monkey

Can you please give me advice on how to keep a positive outlook for when the worst is to come or perhaps how to avoid it? 2016 was an absolute nightmare. there were so many wrong decisions I made. early in the year my boyfriend (Wood Ox) got sick and he became distant selfish and angry. my family was not understanding. my talents as an artist have suffered from my growing depression. I feel so alone and I'm so afraid :( I'm 1984 Water Pig.
