I have a friend who gets sad a lot of times and I wish there was something I could do to make them happy.. unfortunately it's not a possibility sometimes. What would you say generally makes you happy when you're really depressed. I don't mean something happened to you like a family member dying I mean just like when you're depressed. Honestly I think the only times when I get depressed are when I'm stressed about something like school or hating my job which maybe it won't ever happen again. For me just being home can make me feel happy and having privacy from people who I think judge me. But watching a really good show like "house" also makes me feel good... watching something I like does that especially if it's new.

 

yes yes yes, this is house. you should watch it:

 

 

:wink3: sexayyy

shopping usually makes me happy... and writing. I tend to journal a lot.. and that helps when I'm sad. Music too.. I listen to tons of music.... mostly sad music.. but as I get a bit happier and out of my funk... happy music works just fine.

 

 

 

New York Cares..

If im sad I always watch Friends :) always cheers me up, even if i've seen the episode a hundred times already.

 

Or music...Coldplay...music... :nice:

For me it is food - can't get enought of it!!! Not good for the thighs though :chef:

 

Sometimes though I listen to music, in the hope that it cheers me up.

ahhhh, writing... I forgot that...... it doesn't really make me happy but sometimes it's good to feel like you're doing something.......

you're right. Sometimes seeing a funny show can cheer you up. hahaha, and house is hilarious 'cause of the curious point of view of the Dr House... and all the nonsenses that he says! :laugh4:

 

When I'm sad I used to write, as well, 'cause I wanna know and value the real reasons which I feel like this and try to find a solution for them. Sometimes I feel I can't even tell anyone the reasons of my sadness.. so writing them it's a way for not forgetting but make easier the things.

 

Music can cheer me up too, but I wouldn't listen to Coldplay 'cause their songs are not precisely the most suitables ones, most of them are quite sad! I could listen to Franz Ferdinand, f.e.

 

Anyway, I think that any other thing that entertains me could be useful for helping me to forget the reasons which I'm sad too.

music , my friends ,and when it rains :laugh4: dunno why :P

I could listen to Franz Ferdinand,

 

i listen franz to the songs cheer me up :dance:

does the rain make you feel happy?! :stunned: that's weird... 'cause I dunno why but the raning days I feel more low, and I don't feel like doing the usual stuff that I used to do.

 

yaaay, their songs are so lively!!! they're just for dancing! :dance:

I go on the internet and talk to strange ppl......:o

Hard rain, like when there's thunder and lightning is cool. Otherwise the sun makes me happy.

When I'm depressed I listen to music, play with my dog, take a walk, talk to someone, or sleep.

 

I put other, because Bono makes me happy all the time. All I have to do is look at a picture of him (which I was just doing, saving pictures of him in Africa) and I felt so happy :nice: I was pretty sad beforehand, too. That man's my miracle drug.

 

 

 

Music makes me happiest though.

Haha I'm the only one that put "Unleashing Fury"

 

 

Is that normal?

I believe that it is,i also do it sometimes...

I like Marky's answer. Rain on the roof at night when I can't sleep is soooo relaxing...and of course music. Playing piano or guitar usually drags me out of the worst moods.

Where do you go when you're lonely, where do you go when you're blue, where do you go when you're lonely, I'll follow you. When the stars go blue.

 

Err in reply to the question at hand, I like to sing a bit usually works

Actually not to sound too depressing,but nothing make's me happy when I am sad,but there are things that can improve the situation temporarily...

Well that'll do for starters eh? Like if the cat's pissed on your dinner, ketchup isn't going to remove all the taste, but slight tomato is better than complete urine

^^Haahahahaha

Just being myself and chilling with my friends

im always :happy: but Chris Martins voice makes me always happier

i write music or listen to music that helps make me feel better :)or talk to people I can trust (boyfriend or best friend). crying always helps too....

listening to music always makes me feel happier :happy: :nice: and my family,friends or my pets make me feel better :)

For me being with friends makes me happy.

Music is a great thing to cheer up myself...

friends as well, though not always

and of course a good movie too :smug:
