Best u Can Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 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 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berrywoman Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 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..

Oenona Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

an_cat Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TraceOddity Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 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. http://traciemorgan.ca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom of the Opera Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 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.

Phantom of the Opera Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
