    When you are having a bad day, what cheers you up? Is it something as simple as a funny joke or doing something you love or are you a person who has a hard time cracking a smile when things go wrong? Discuss!
     
    Honestly, I think people cheer me up. Even the one's that I hate. I try and act angry and stuff, but just being around people takes my mind off of it and helps me relax more.
     
    It depends really, sometimes I'm depressed and nothing will cheer me up. Sometimes I'm not that depressed and simply playing one of my favorite games will cheer me up. Most of the time it's the latter though.
     
    Music cheers me up! It helps me to forget about things that I'm going through sometimes, or other times I listen to a song that really matches how I'm feeling and then I don't know I sort of go through a cathartic moment and feel better.
     
    Whenever a bad day rolls around, I just write out my frustrations while listening to metal. It really helps me get the anger out. That, or I just nap it off. When I'm crabby, it's most likely because of lack of sleep, so napping usually makes me feel better.
     
    Hard time crack a smile only 2 people made me smile I thank them
     
    If I'm in a bad mood and something's causing me to worry, nothing cheers me up, really. ): I mean, you could keep my mind away from it for a while, but I'll get back to it eventually and start worrying, making myself depressed yet again. Only way I could make myself feel better is when I actually find a way to deal with whatever's bothering me.
     
    Not that I'm bipolar or anything to that extreme, but my mood changes quite often depending on what happens throughout the day. Some days I will wake up feeling rather depressed, wanting nothing to do with people and stay a hermit within the confines of my room. Majority of the time that changes probably because doing my morning workout energizes me, but seeing friends and hanging out does make me rather cheerful (: Even more so than spending time with my sister because she often drags me to the mall >>;;
     
    Im pretty easy to cheer up, as i cant stay mad or sad for too long anyways. Best things to make me crack a smile again are either my friends or a funny tv show, that easy
     
    Pretty much depends on the situation. If it's a little problem everything can make me smile, but if it's a deep, personal problem nothing can. That's why i took a 2-3 days off here. I just have these depression days, y'know?
     
    Watching anime such as K-On can bring a smile to my face :) yui's such a qt.

    Along with that, just browsing PC, checking out the topics here in CCC and VG especially, and, well, checking on my friends and talking to them. It's useless to cheer me up on a rainy day though; weather contributes to my moods. ):
     
    I like to turn to art. Just turning on some music in the background and grabbing a pencil really helps preoccupy myself and it helps me forget why exactly I'm sad or depressed. Just make sure that you choose some upbeat music is all, not some Christina Perri-esque sappy music or anything like that.
     
    Guys, going to sleep hoping that you'll feel better when you wake up is just the human equivalent to "Have you tried turning it off and on again?"

    Also: [Oh, pardon my French]
    Spoiler:


    But anyway, as for me. . . If I can get my mind off it for a bit, then I'll usually cheer up. Bad days generally leave me saying 'Oh geez' rather then getting depressed, though. You know, every dog has his day.

    I listen to music, dance a little (usually around my room or dorm), and then I eat. Like a lot. These are usually the things that get me back to being happy again. Then there are those times where I go to my secret wall and stab the **** out of it with my special knife. :] Instant relief. Heh.
     
    That depends on the severity of the bad day. What went wrong?

    If it was just mildly upsetting, something important didn't go as planned, bad grades, whatever.. I'll just take a long, hot shower or bath and be away from people for awhile. Alone time to think and cope and relax. Alternatively, old Retsupurae videos cheer me up sometimes.

    If it was another night filled with nightmares and a whole 2 hours of sleep in intervals, I'll curl up with a cute, mind-numbing, tedious game to clear my head and then take a nap. Animal Crossing errand-running and Pokemon breeding are both great for that.

    Ooorrr if someone hit some kind of trigger and my mood just got completely ♥♥♥♥ on for the next several hours, I will curl up on my couch with a shooter and a box (or 10) of chocolatey snacks. If someone else is around when this happens, I don't have the heart to take it out on them so we'll just watch a cute show together that will lift my mood. Leverage has been my go-to lately. (Parker is just so darned cute!)
