When I’ve been horrifically depressed I took a roll of toilet paper and wrapped the dog in it. It made me laugh until I cried. Dog was like “guess this is life now”.
This is fucking priceless
It was extra funny because I have a pug, and they’re pretty docile so he was like “ok guess I’m a mummy now”.
I pictured way too many dog breeds to this, and embarrassingly I did not consider pugs :P
He’s pretty chill so it was extra cute.
Help someone else
Ooo that’s a great one! Helping someone else makes me feel good basically 100% of the times i do it. And it doesn’t even have to be a major help, or even a moderate help, just helping someone in a minor way gives me a good feeling.
Alcohol. Yes, I know it ain’t right.
As long as you are responsible with it and not harming yourself or others then I don’t see anything wrong with having a drink or two to help relax.
What about a drink or six?
Right? The problem is, sometimes I’m like, “Wow, do I drink too much” but then I’m like “Naaah, I drink way less than (insert the name of an alcoholic you personally know here)”, but sometimes it still feels like I drink too much anyway?
Will tell you when I find out.
Sometimes I tell myself “since I’m gloomy anyway, might as well do some housework”. And then the house looks nicer and it helps.
“Might as well do X or Y” ya, I think I’ll try telling myself that more with a bit more motivation to actually do it.
yea I did this with my working space yesterday, the morale improved
I wander. I can walk to a Boston subway stop in about 35 minutes. I often just hop on a train and get off at a random stop and just explore.
I’m literally on a train right now for this very purpose.
I can relate. I’m a huge fan of public transportation. I love exploring different places using a public train. One of the things that I liked doing with public transportation was to intentionally make myself get lost.
I was once robbed on a public train from Jakarta on my way home to Tangerang after visiting my friend. Since then, I’ve become more careful not to take a public train to places that seem dangerous or unsafe.
In complete honesty, I spend money. Another more specific avenue is dining out for a nice meal.
Treating yourself is nice
Vaping copious amounts of marijuana. Its the only thing that takes the edge off and silences the voices that point out the hellhole we live in.
I don’t think vaping is good idea. Perhaps drink water instead of vaping.
Idk what water you’re drinking, but the only thing that does is make me less thirsty or more bloated. Does nothing for the anxiety or anything else…
Gimmie some clear liquid to put in there and I’ll go with that option.
Chatting with a close friend
what about not having one
Chat with an acquaintance, grandma, cousin, neighbor…
Bike ride outdoors. Stationary bike doesn’t boost mood for me, only actually biking through space does it.
