Apparently music is the number one thing that can change someone's mood.
Thank you all for your options. You are all awesome.

I use a couple of different methods:

1. Change temperature- so if I am hot I need to get somewhere cold and vice versa. ( Really HOT showers are the best)
2. Talk about the problem
3. Seek Support
4. Chat with friends5. Problem solving6. Exercise7. Car ride in the mountainsThanks for the invite!

Listen to music
I think that pretty much sums it up ✌️

[crazyish]

Music is my go to. Sad relatable music to release the emotions. A drive is the best way since I can listen to music during it. I want a punching bag for when I'm really angry.

[exitseven]

I think your comment makes perfect sense.😊

[crazyish]

You're my kind of people then😊

[Wiredone]

I usually drive to the water and just watch the waves while I sit in my truck with the music on. I had a punching bag in my basement but I used to keep breaking my hands so I had to get rid of it

[crazyish]

That sounds so relaxing and peaceful. I probably won't have that problem lol but what do you do now to release the anger?

[Wiredone]

It is so relaxing and soothing. Now when I need to release anger I build things. Hammering the nails gets rid of my anger

[crazyish]

Thanks, that makes perfect sense.. now I don't need a punching bag🙂

[Wiredone]

Yeah, and a hammer and nails are cheaper.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Take a walk or a drive to clear my mind...
Listen to music...
Talk it out with someone..
Make sex joke takes on GAG to share laughs😂

[Wiredone]

Try to challenge the thoughts that are bothering me and see if there's another way to interpret the situation. Kind of a glass is half full, not half empty sort of thing. Put a positive spin to the negative thoughts (but still realistic, not optimistic).

[TurboKid]

For example, replace the thought, "This is going to suck," with, "This is going to be a challenge."

[TurboKid]

Also helps me to try to find humor in situations. Like if I'm having a bad day already and it's raining and I'm walking down the street and a car speeds by and splashes me with water, it's like "Aww, shit!" But then I have to kind of laugh because it's funny. I try to find the funny in everything. That can help.

[SandandWaves]

do something that makes me feel happy. good distraction

[SandandWaves]

right now, extremely in pain, emotionally and physically

[Wiredone]

Ask the doctor for some pain relief. Talk to him about your emotional state.
I wouldn't tell him that you tried putting the plug in the wrong hole.

[SandandWaves]

:P. I told him everything going on in my life

[Hannah_le]

The biggest thing I’d say is music that changes my mood a lot makes me happier lol and then talking with someone I enjoy talking to on the phone

[Alwayshornyyyyy]

That's I nice I used to listen to music I liked I don't listen to nothing anymore on the birds chirping, and the sounds of nature

[Alwayshornyyyyy]

*only

[CupofToffee]

Help a friend out--be it chores or just hearing out their problems. You'll find out that your mood changes when you feel wanted and that you did something good for someone.

[exitseven]

I listen to music, go for a drive or go for a workout. It depends on how depressed I am.

[Static_In_The_Attic]

As for me I pack my cooler & I go for a little drive & enjoy a beach day.

[Aether1]

Video games I prefer open-world games where I can get lost in the game world and I forget my troubles for a couple of hours.

[collie22]

meditation works for me and music is uplifting plus reading my bible all that stuff. o and a smile from somebody will do it too :)

[JosyJosy]

Go for a run with earphones in, does the trick :)

[scooogy]

Imagining your enemies being ants to stomp on? 😈

[electromagnetic]

Nothing on the planet a nap can’t fix.

[the_imperfectionist]

Sleep, chores, Reddit, calling a friend.
