What do you do when you feel sad?

(Hmmmm, been a while since I last posted here... Cheers, everybody!)

I usually turn off all the lights, bring out a guitar, and play it until my fingers bleed. Well, that's what I do if I'm sad or bored, and don't really feel like socializing...

 

LOL! I've always wanted a stack of cheap china just for throwing, a safe place to smash it, and someone to clean up after me.

 

MoN, you inspire me.

 

When I'm sad I tend to talk to people. But if I'm feeling really sad I just like to be alone by myself. Go play some hockey with loud music in the background, or go read a book outside, or just go lye on my bad thinking.
Screaming often helps as well.

 

LOL kick a puppy!


Most times i go and smash something up too. I'm not living in the city so its easy. I just take me big axe and go smash some wood. Or if i dont have any wood at home i run a bit to come to the forest.... There's always some dry wood there

This helps me.

 

I just sort of withdraw the sadness into myself and lock it away to be dealt with later. If later turns out to be a couple days later and I can't remember why I was sad it's a good thing right.

(oddly enough I do this with most feelings)

 

Go into my room and play Avril at the top of my computers volume and work on my fanfic or blog. Or yell at my little brother.

 

During the summer, I go golfing, everything seems better after slapping a little white ball around or I go skateboarding. During the winter I hit the outdoor rink and skate.

I always listen to music, so that doesn't work for me.

 

I go down to my mum's. A bit of company always helps.

 

I can't play music anymore. My mother keeps complaining she doesn't like it but I have to put up with her singing. She expects me to sit quietly all the time, it's unfair!

 

Buy yourself a headset I did

 

I did have one - but it broke because I played the music too loud, and then my mother complains I ignore her all the time and I'm unsociable, I can't win.

 

When I get sad, if it's for any reason other than my relationship then I talk about it to my partner. Sadly most of the time it's because of the relationship, in which case I type my little heart out in notepad and blog it somewhere.
Either that or I hug a friend or two, or in most cases they know when to hug me.

 

I start reading a book and get really involved in the story so that I don't have to think about my own problems. then I just go to sleep and somehow things always get better after that.

 

I usually just either zone out, or cut on some music and write. I find that when I'm not feeling so hot I write better. Go figure.

 

I usually take it out on the nearest person, then brood for a while. Letting the emotions build up and up until its behind a wall of anger then I lash out at my close friends and relatives. Then i get a tatoo and hang around biker bars.

Well, not really. Thats a lie.

I usually just get angry. That's fun. Then I listen to some loud angry music and hurt myself.

Then I sleep.

 

Anything that takes my mind off the problem I have or think I have.

- Take a long walk can be very refreshing for the mind.

- Having a very nice long dinner is also good. Meat Fondue & wine or cheese & wine for example.
Drink just a little bit more wine than you really need for the food - say a whole bottle instead of about a half. No more, you don't want to go from being a bit "tipsy" to getting sloshed. Going to bed with everything spinning and almost making you sick is not recommended.
A nice meal can be a fantastic boost to your well-being.

 

A pint of Ben&Jerry's Chocolate Heath Bar Crunch and a spoon works pretty well for me...

 

I'm not that big on Heath Bars, but Dean's Chocolate Moose Tracks would go a long ways toward making me feel better.

 

I brood, then I play some violent video game and listen to music
