On a serious note. Individual problems are indeed temporary.
IMO, problems are a side effect of living. They won't ever completely go away unless you just quit living, and that's not cool. So, we have to do as you are, find coping mechanisms.

For myself, Shawn Achor's Happiness Advantage has been an immense help. Trust me, NOBODY is going to say I am some sort of bubbly, happy, optimistic guy. But, buy following Shawn's suggestions, I make it a point, actually go out of my way to identify, daily the things I am thankful for. I also, daily perform one conscious act of kindness. Hold the door open, etc. It doesn't have to be huge. Something small is fine. BTW, here is Shawn's TED talk that inspired me to find out more about his methodology.
To be clear, it's not some radical hippie shit... just incase your worried. :)
Problems are ALWAYS going to be there, that's life. But again, IMO you have to consciously force yourself to think on the positives as well. They are there.. they just don't scream for attention like the problems do, that's why you have to actively go find them.
Best of luck to you.
The Happiness Advantage changed me. I've grown up in a pessimistic household and to finally figure out that I don't have to be miserable was a turning point for me.
