When you've had a bad day

[Seaweed-Headed Dragon 356]

I come here on the forums and talk with my friends. Makes me much better

[Lagom 204]

Writing, dancing, drawing or listen to some music, usually helps. If it doesn't I'll just try(my best) to let things go naturally, take them from there and don't use too much time on thinking, knowing there's a new day tomorrow.

Oh gods...what do I do after a bad day...kinda like yesterday when I had to spend 12hours doing Jury Duty...soon as I got home, I grabbed my husband, made him hold me tight, repeatly kissed him over and over then told him to "hold me and do not let go, my day was just awful!"

 

Ya I"m a big baby, but I love it when he snuggles me up like his little princess, gives me all of his attention after a long rough day. It beats any chocolate.

i just listen to music it and go on a run it helps me clear my head and i feel great afterwards

Chevette. Country music and joking around.

Programming. I love programming games or scenes, makes me feel good inside, and teaches me about my style, even about the language its self.

Reading. Especially programming volumes

Plus, I can easily get lost in the Internet, as well as have fun with my fellow friends.

I sometimes listen to songs from mlp fim like Smile, or listen to the song Isn't Great To Be Different by Forest Rain. Either that or just meditate for 30 minutes.

Well, it depends on how bad of a day it was. I can't move if I'm too upset, so sometimes there are days where I just curl up into a blanket and cry, waiting to fall asleep.

 

If it's just a regular bad day, I could listen to music that fits my mood, watch some videos or a show I like, keep myself distracted with forums, or talk with friends. 

[Thrashy 2,799]

I'd tell you, but I'm not allowed to talk about it per a recently implemented rule. Let's just say it involves some perfectly legal beverages.

 

...And ponies. Ponies always help.

Calming my mind after a bad day almost seems impossible for me, but I always have resorted to one technique. I can't say since the forums have a rule on suicidal content.

[Phosphor 11,522]

I can ease my mind with music, stargazing, target practice, and all sorts of things. It's good to have multiple ways to unwind after a bad day.

[TBD 17,228]

When? It's like everyday is a bad day. I just roll with it.

[PaulBron 173]

I don't do nothing, even if it was a depressive day

[Narcissus 352]

I sing. Singing is medicine for me and I do it all the time.

And sometimes I try to do something for someone I like, which seems incongruous for my personality, but it often makes me feel better when I can make someone else happy.

I'm not used to having good days anymore to be honest. Life's been really awful for me for the past year and a half or so...

Though I can try to distract myself by playing video games and listening to certain scores from certain video game soundtracks. It only kind of works.

[Peppermint Larry 203]

If I'm having a bad day, I take a shower when I get home. Showers are comforting, and I always sort of think of them as a "reset". 

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 40,273]

Talking with my boyfriend always helps eventually. For him I am always thankful. Other things it can be hit and miss if my mood is really bad, but playing certain games can help, like Forza Motorsport or something equally relaxing. Music is another obvious one. Another thing can help is if I simple delve into stuff I have a passion for. If I can somehow get over that big mood hurdle and just indulge in topic I like, it can help a lot, it is just getting past that specific point of apathy.

[Steve Piranha 28,769]

Depends on what I carve. Can be video games, working out, just chilling, music, whatever I want

[Jedishy 3,542]

Video games and cartoons. Maybe a bit of chocolate or cheese snack 

[Dreambiscuit 8,024]

I watch ballet when I’m upset. It almost always cools me down.  But if I’m sad, seeing other people happy, especially little kids, it really makes me smile and forget about other concerns.  

[Lucky Bolt 34,914]

I listen to music, maybe go for a drive...or both. 

[Cash In 21,504]

Playing video games or listening to music tends to calm me down after a rough day.

[Here No Longer 5,270]

I don't have those anymore! 

If I had a bad day, talking with my amazing boyfriend would help a lot  He has a way with making me feel better. But if he's not available or I can't get on the internet, I find that playing Pokémon games for me can turn that anger into a sort of odd joy. But it isn't all that consistent. There are also certain video game soundtrack scores I'll listen to from time to time to make myself feel better.

Family helps. Gardening. I seem to be in better moods these days than I used to be, but staying off the internet is a pretty good way of keeping me from getting into any bad moods in the first place.

[Nsxile 25,657]

Violent video games help take out the fustration... Either that, or seeing a friend.
