    What cheers you up when you are down?

    We all get down in the dumps every now and then for many different reasons; work, life, people anything like that, but what really gets you going again and happy?

    It can be anything that tickles your fancy. Does one person, RL or PC based really cheer you up? Can someone make you laugh easily? Is there a band/song that just cheers you up? Maybe a TV show or film that gets you laughing every single time? Or is it more basic like a book?
    Maybe it isn't even something revolved around media, it could just be a simple walk in the fresh air/rain/sun/snow that puts that smile on your face.

    Tell us.

    Hm... watching shows on TV can make me laugh, or chat/text real life friends and online friends.

    I'm never really happy, and at the same time not that mad/sad. I'm more of a neutral person I guess.
     
    I remember getting inconsolably upset when I was reading Dumbledore's death scene in the sixth Harry Potter book. I was crying my eyes out and I felt so sick to my stomach that the only thing that would calm me down was if I forced myself to shut the book and watch four back-to-back episodes of Frasier. That show always gets me smiling :)

    Aside from that, ranting always makes me feel better, which is why I love to blog. Also going outside for a walk and getting away from the constant technology everywhere always makes me feel better when I'm irritated or frustrated.

    Then of course, there are the activities that aren't appropriate to discuss here :P
     
    I actually have it open on another tab, lol

    If I get really down, I find that watching Yu-Gi-Oh The Abridged Series cheers me right up. It's just too funny even after watching it a billion times. I can't stay sad watching it. :') Other funny shows will do, too, but that's the first thing I think of.

    I wish I could just talk it out but I get depressed really late at night when everyone's asleep. :( So YGO Abridged it usually is!
     
    Just one of my friends telling a joke or watching my dog be silly.
     
    I usually just pick up my guitar and start to write a sad song. About 5 minutes later, I get so into making the song sound better that I forget that I was sad/mad.
     
    Hmmm watching Pokemon, getting a pokemon doll, getting a pack of Reeses or getting a Mc Donalds Sundae


    :t354:TG
     
    Anything funny on TV makes me laugh (comedies, etc.). Internet memes also crack me up every once in a while.
     
    There are these two people that can pretty much make me smile no matter what. And some certain videos. "PS3 make da best games." lol
     
    Youtube poops make me laugh, but it's because it's funny in a stupid way. Forced memes are pretty funny too. That poorly translated Vietnamese crystal version was a source of entertainment for past couple of weeks.
     
    Pretty sunsets and tiny puppies. A lot of simple things too, like my friends watching football. I'm not a football fan, but they love it so I watch it with them and they're so PASSIONATE about it.
     
    Listen to some up beat music, talk to certain friends and family members or just go exercise. Reading manga and watching anime are up there as well.
     

    Puppies. I want a puppy. Like, right now. x] They're just so cute
     
    Watching just about anything on TV. Something that's entertaining enough distracts me from the current situation will calm me down every time, but it usually takes some time.
     
    What cheers me up when I'm down.. well anyone that can help me talk my issues through, that usually helps out. But if it's solitary entertainment (lolol), anything that gets my mind off of what's getting me down I can consider to cheer me up. So basically anything makes me happy, unless it just makes me more pissed.

    Quite a revelation, I know.
     
    The only sure-fire way I can cheer up is when I'm watching Roseanne. Other things, like talking to my friends, can cheer me up and make me laugh too, but it really depends on my mood. Sometimes I just want to be completely alone and would prefer 0 interaction.
     
    Playing pokemon always cheers me up :C
     
    Usually when i'm down I like to go for a drive and listen to angsty music for a little bit, preferably at night. I also like seeing/talking to my friends (after i've calmed down), reading something like a book or a magazine, chillaxing with some tea, and I also like being outside too. Even watching tv shows like Friends, Parks and Rec, South Park, and Archer cheer me up too :)

    A lot makes me smile, but those will do the trick with cheering me up when i'm upset.
