I was much more aggressive 2 or 3 years ago. You should have seen me back then. I used to punch stuff, scream like hell, be a total prick to everyone, hurt myself. I bought a drum set just to have something to violently hit whenever I got mad. I never actually took lessons, mind you. All my knowledge of how to play drums comes from rage-driven skin-smashing.
I'm chilled out a bit since then, though. And my attention span isn't exactly amazing. Nowadays, I can easily take my mind off of whatever's getting me down using any form of entertainment at all. Really. TV, video games, internet, music, books. Anything at all. As long as it doesn't explicitly remind me of the depression-causer, I'll cheer up in a pretty short time.
Oh, this song helps a lot too.
