When you're depressed, what makes you feel better?

I wallow in self-pity for a bit, then realize that is not doing any good, so I'll find something to do to take my mind off whatever is bugging me be it going out with my g/f, gaming, reading, drawing etc etc...

That usually works fairly well.

I listen to happy songs.
I don't know how to be sexy. If I catch a girl looking at me and our eyes lock, I panic and open mine wider. Then I lick my lips and rub my genitals. And mouth the words "You're dead."

I make something yummy to eat. Comfort food. Then I cuddle my cat and read a good book. If crying is needed, I do that too. I do that alot actually.

I watch a movie to take my mind off the things that are depressing me. Either that or take the kids to the park.

I overanalyze the situation for between 2-24 hours, then somehow the whole thing sets itself right.
That, or I snack, pace about, talk about it with friends and family, and/or sleep.

Invest in a punching bag and some simple gloves. Not boxing gloves, but something to prevent callousing your hands when you beat the holy hell out of the bag.

Once more into the breach, my friends, once more. We'll close the wall with our dead. In peace, nothing so becomes a man as modesty and humility, but when the blast of war blows in our ears, then imitate the action of the tiger, summon up the blood, disguise fair nature with rage and lend the eye a terrible aspect.

Listen to music or read, spend alot of time hanging around and talking to friends...hide inside someone else's life for a while. Sometimes the sadness needs to be embraced..sad music, old conversations and pictures gone over...as long as you don't hang onto it for too long, it can help.

Carl. If no Carl available, run off into my room, crawl under the sheets and cry for a good few hours. Then go play with my action figures. Action figures are oddly therapeutic. And so far the reigning champion of my room is still The Maxx. What scares me is that Rob Zombie beat the only EQ toy I have.

Strangely enough, I've been doing a LOT of my escapism lately. You'd be hard pressed to find me not asleep or at work, and not either A) Playing a game, B) Listening to music, C) Watching a movie, or D) engrossing myself completely and entirely in something, to keep my thoughts on anything BUT myself. Multitasking allows me to keep talking on IRC so I don't have to keep my friends out, while I try to run away from my life into another.

I listen to a lot of depressing music, and I vent, and I am outwardly moody. Then 5 minutes afterwards, I forcibly have a mood swing and am inexplicably happy. Call me weird.
