It is normal to be sad BUT

21:87)
Lâ ilâha illa Anta [none has the right to be worshiped but You (O Allâh)], Glorified (and Exalted) are You [above all that (evil) they associate with You]. Truly, I have been of the wrong-doers."[Al-Anbiya,21:87]

Prophet Yunus's story have been captured several times in Quran for us human to learn from it. And apply it in our daily life. There is nothing better than story from Quran cause this is the words from Him, The Creator, The Al-Mighty. For example, it is normal for us human to feel sad and sometimes when we are under depression we would make a wrong decision and might end up regret about it later. let say we feel depressed after having a bad exam result or maybe the result we get is not like the way we expect. Then to release the tension, we decide to go to shopping complex or to the pub or watching movies non stop without realizing that we still have other responsibility to be full fill. At the mean time me might forget that we still have assignment to be send tomorrow or forgot that we have make a promise with one of friend to teach her and etc. Then it would end up not only having a bad exam mark but also no marks for assignments and bad record with your friend. Isn't it kind of double the trouble? And Now you regret about it even more.
But DONT WORRY, event Allah's messenger make false BUT the ONLY difference is He regret about it and ask for the forgiveness right away, non stop. Just like Allah describe about Prophet Yunus (pbuh) in 37:139-148
So also was Jonah among those sent (by us). (139)
When he ran away (like slave from captivity) to the ship (fully) laden (140)
He (agreed to) cast lots, and he was condemned: (141)
Then the big Fish did swallow him, and he had done acts worthy of blame. (142)
Had it not been that he (repented and) glorified Allah, (143)
He would certainly have remained inside the Fish till the Day of Resurrection. (144)

But We cast him forth, on the naked shore in a state of sickness (145)

And We caused to grow, over him a spreading plant of the Gourd kind (146)

And We sent him (on a mission) to a hundred thousand (men) or more. (147)
And they believed; so We permitted them to enjoy (their life) for a while. (148)
