when you're depressed what makes you feel better:

[pppqp]

Anything nice such as food, funny clips, kind words, etc.
My mood changes easily

 

[black orchid]

Knowing that its usually less than a week til i'll be back at Wayne's

Also Wayne's roast dinner.......mmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

[Monoka]

I aggree with the walking, especially in the early hours when theres no one around.
...and custard, random but it helps when i suddenly drop low.
:mellow:

Giving away something to someone who really needs it.

nice. They say we are connected to our true self when we give from our heart. And it does feel good for sure.

I feel better when I am giving what I have to give. I feel the opposite when for some reason I am cut off from giving what I have to give.

 

[Jords]

Playing some sort of instrument- usually piano. Or listenning to music

 

[spooky]

The only thing that makes me feel better, and what's kept me alive this long, haha, are my cats. They are nonjudgmental. They're always happy to see me. They don't ask questions. They don't make assumptions. They don't give me crap. They don't lie, cheat, steal, BS or pacify. They just want to love and be loved. Bless their furry little hearts. I love my kittehs.

Spooky :ghost:

people and food

 

[Chargette]

At least 3 or 4 days of extra sleep.

 

[chipper]

i compare myself to less fortunate people in order to realize that i am still lucky...

i know it's bad but it gets me through

 

[emotional_girl]

When my husband holds me and rubs my back...it comforts me.

 

[Silent1]

Video games weed and sleep short term. nothing has helped me in the long.

Comfort Food :Jehuty: Oh, and sleep...and more sleep.

 

[lemonparade]

Time firstly.......then sleep, sedatives, alcohol. Sometimes comfort food, sex and cigarettes help.

 

[creative username]

Sleep - all problems temporarily disappear... most of time. Sometimes I get chased by a dinosaur.

Eating - got one rule here - if it's bad for my teeth, it's good for my mind.

Ice-cold drinks

Being in nature - treehugger, sun worshiper

Music - except love songs... I find them depressing at this point.

Exercise - if I manage to motivate myself

TV - Travel Channel, HBO Comedy, Boomerang (never too old for that )

 

[Kassy]

-Going to the movie theater
- Having a bath
- napping
- shopping
- playing violent games on my PC

 

[mynewusername]

short term: nature- all plants and animals, sitting with my best friend, baking, excercise- mainly walking around woods, music, small amounts of alcohol and/or weed- too much can make it a lot worse, support from understanding people.

long term (this is a difficult 1, i can get really low very rapidly for no reason at all) : looking after myself- eating/drinking healthily and regularly can make a big difference, my best friend (again...)- even if she is not with me at the time i know she is always there for me.

 

[tenholehweels]

Nothing. i have no friends,no nothing.


I guess thinking of creative ways to die..gives me some peace
for a while.

 

[mynewusername]

well stick with SF mate, we will be your friends and help you through this rough time.

 

[Blip]

Hmm, Short term reliefs for me would be things like reading a good book, or spending some time to completely relax, cleaning helps a fair amount, spending extra time for personal grooming, creating a to-do list and completing it, and music can have a huge affect on my mood as well.

I don't really know for long term :/
