I mostly eat and cry

Watch a good movie, read a good book, listen to some great music, immerse myself in great art until I'm ready for primetime again. That usually works well for me.

Writing while I listen to music. Music makes the world go round for me and I feel like it can express how I am feeling no matter my mood.
“What screws us up the most in life is the picture in our head of what it's supposed to be.”

Also if your signature makes my scrolling mess up "you're tacky and I hate you."

Oh, and play games.

Nothing like being the hunter in the depths, preying on the convoys, to make me feel slightly happier when i'm down.

Music is awesome. Listening to the right song at the right time can put me in a whole different mood.

I usually have the urge to be completely alone when it feels like things are going downhill. Let my thoughts and emotions sort itself out with very little distractions. 

I do workout, but its done more out of passion, not so i can feel good about myself.

I'm old school.

I just think about those millions in third world countries with "nothing" to complain about and it tends to put me back in my place....

I also became an expert at lowering my expectations in life untill I'm just above the ever shifting content line...

Oh yeah, lowered expectations, funnily enough, have worked very well for me. Smile

Strangely, I've been happier with not expecting much especially from other people.
