    there is really only one thing that gets me really sad/depressed and I have not yet found out how to make it go away except for time...after awhile it goes away on its own....
    it will come unexpectively and throw me off, I think that bothers me the most is that I have no control over it whatsoever :(

    i have memories that cheer me up too but they are with my best friend that moved away so it sort of depresses me more but than i go out with my other friends and yeah :)

    ^That's a good idea. Singing out loud relieves stress, I've started doing it a lot actually.

    When I'm upset I usually talk to my friends. I don't even tell them I'm upset, but they seem to pick up on it and put me in a way better mood within a matter of minutes.

    If my friends are working or something, I play with my dog. It's amazing how fast that furry little face can make you smile.

    If I'm sad I usually do karaoke with a couple of very good friends, so we can laugh at ourselves. Talking to people and being with friends helps a lot. Memories do sometimes... unless I segway into something bad, which happens sometimes. And for me driving always puts me in a good mood, I love it.

    I watch movies. preferably comedies or atleast non-thinking films. It's amazing how that works sometimes. South Park: Bigger, Longer, Uncut saved me from an existential crisis.

    Knowing my friends are there for me and will listen to me and help me through things. Also just talking to them or looking a pictures and remembering all the crazy stupid stuff we've done.

    i used to never smile, couldn't bring myself toit, but now i meet my bf, its the funny things he does when im upset, he pulls faces, if dat don't work he makes me coffee and we sit and chat and he always makes it better within 15 minutes

  • Purple

    I direct my saddness into anger over how stupid everything is, which in turn makes me sarcastic, which I enjoy, so then I go and enter a chat room or talk to a friend online where my sarcasm shows extra cold, and maybe get to add a little viloince in. Very funny, talking about killing people who never existed.

    Or, I head over hear and HOPE some one replied to some thing, anything... Surf the internet, read, just find some way to destract myself.

    If it's really late I'll write, and then by the time I'm finished with one or two poems I'm exhausted and have to go to sleep.

    When I am sad, the only thing that really makes me happy is talking to my ex-boyfriend... He's really good at making me feel better.

    -i admit that my friends would rather hang out at the mall or go to school dances but i dont think that is really that fun... and i HATE dances. not having friends to talk to is hard. but i have a lot of guy friends that are really understanding and will listen to what i have to say. so when i had a bad day i come home and play my guitar and listen to the goo goo dolls. their music really helps me-

    Music is soothing. Knowing that others have it worse off than me has helped me to look at the positive.
