When you're really down, what's the quickest way to get you feeling good again?

Question

No drugs, or alchahol. Just what do you think about? Do you meditate, remember a certain memory, or talk to a special friend?

Answer 1

For me it's exercise. It is probably similar to meditation as I definitely space out while I"m doing it and then I feel great for a whole day afterwards. Plus I hear it's good for you.

I like riding my mountain bike or lifting weights.

Do you know anything about GPS devices?

Answer 2

I just think about life for a minute. Ya know, I don't think God put us here to be crabby and sad. I just think that ya know... if this was my last day on earth I wouldn't want to be down and everything. I should do something better with my time. So I try to be happy and I guess... not down. Instead of being down I can go and help someone or something!

I think sometimes though, you just need to have a minute to be down. If something bad happens you can't always get over it really really fast. So then take just a minute to yourself and be down. Ya know... pray in that minute or something. And then pretty soon you are better and happy again!
