Getting in a better mood

[gjendemsjo]

When you're in a shitty mood or is depressed, what do you do to get in a better mood?

 

[Simalacrum]

Being with friends

edit: or juggling. That works too XD

 

[Lord Mountbatten Reborn]

At the moment, I listen to this. Someone put it up here I think. Very catchy. Might fit your predicament at the same time.

 

[Calico93]

Hang with friends, or some drawing/painting, or a mega fruit smoothie, or a hug, or BACON.

Listen to songs like this

Spoiler

go out with friends or watch some episodes of robot chicken.

 

[Gxas]

Usually put on some good music.

Can't Bear This Party and Melody Fall have my attention at the moment. Good cheer-up music, in my mind. It's considered "Happycore" (Pop/punk) and simply makes me want to get up and dance.

Watch Firefly. I was once in an awfully bad mood feeling scared and depressed. I watched an episode of Firefly and felt a lot better.

 

[Jasper Jeffs]

Jogging is supposed to be good for depression. I personally listen to music, speak to friends or play basketball.

 

[Betancore]

Music! Music has a huge influence on my mood. Probably not such a good thing, actually. And being with friends is also good, although sometimes if I'm in a crap mood, I'm not really feeling very social.

I either play left 4 dead 2 and shoot zombies in the face, or I listen to music.
Going for walks helps as well.

I watch this video:

That was awesome!

I play videogames to cheer up.

 

[Marter]

I stay in that mood until I go to sleep, and then when I wake up, I'm usually fine again.

Although, sometimes, if I really need a quick mood fix, I'll listen to this song:

I watch this video:

Just want to point out your avatar makes that song like 10x funnier. And it was pretty funny to start with.

But yeah, I don't think much works better than listening to something uplifting. Putting a game on easy and going on a rampage is a pretty effective blues-kicker too.
Left 4 Dead 2 + Easy + Unending crescendo event = Barrels of uplifting, gory fun.

 

[Neuromaster]

I like to take a nice hot shower, then maybe clean up some random thing around my room. Maybe grab a coffee after.

 

[Nazulu]

Breath in deep and think of the positives. If that fails I'll try to take my mind of it with some music or just forget while playing a game. If those things are not in reach at the time then have a shower or buy some chocolate.

And if none of those things are around then I will punch and kick something.

 

[hurfdurp]

I usually go to bed, which probably isn't the best solution.

 

[Ciartan]

smoke weed, drink, tv series, movies, video games.

 

[Still Life]

If you don't feel up to being social: then go on a nature trip; a good walk does wonders for my mind. If not, then I guess anything that is relaxing, but sufficiently complex to take your mind off your woes.

For me, that would involve reading, gaming, movies, etc.
