How can I feel better today?

Question

My depression's really bad today. Don't answer this like I'm suicidal or anything; I'm not. I'm just having a worse day today. Anybody have any tips on how to feel better?

Answer 1

Start by stepping outside for some fresh air or maybe taking a little stroll. When you come in, make some popcorn and watch your favorite movie. If you're engrossed in the movie you won't be thinking about feeling depressed.

Answer 2

SMILE at people and they smile back, well its cheap advice but it works

Answer 3

Turn on some of your favorite music and sing as loudly as possible.  This tends to help me in those down moments :)

Answer 4

Get up.

Even if you feel really bad, don't spend all day in bed. Get up, and try and complete some small tasks.  

Answer 5

Go to the park and walk for about 2 hours. You will feel great when you are finished.

Answer 6

Cry.

Scream.

Answer 8

I think it's great how hollywood has created "reality" for us to watch, yet, when we watch a movie, it takes us away from reality, and we wish we could be like the characters in the movie....it always works for me to watch a movie, dim the lights, pop some popcorn, and forget about everything else and get engrossed in a movie you love. Retail therapy is great too...go to starbucks and buy yourself a drink...go to the thriftstore with a friend and try on the wackiest outfits...

Answer 9

Distraction distraction distraction!!!...and try to make plans so that u have something to look forward to....i find that always helps me

take care and God bless
