What do you do if you're sad?

I try to read

I do something to take my mind off of whatever it is that is making me sad.

i try to get happy. giving into it is the worse thing i can do. ihate to be sad. i try to get busy & get my mind off it.

Hi there amzthienne Well as I have got kids that need to be fed, dressed and sent off to school I have to carry on the day as normal until they are in bed and I would get out the ice-cream and watch tv.

I cry for a few seconds and then say, "Ok buddy, time to cheer up", put on some fast music and dance the sadness out of my system. That feels better!Or I'll go look in the mirror and start laughing at the poor poor sad face there.

if i am sad then the only person i can think up that can cheer me up is ME because no one knows me better then i do. maybe my parents do but it is still me who needs to be happy. i will and i always try to find fun in all the things i do and if i am really sad then other then having a little time near the beach or listening to music, i will try to find and look to correct the cause that created the sadness. cheers to life "there is a curve that can straighten a lot of things and it is smile"

I will be sitting in front of computer and start playing games like no days.... After some killing (the game :p), i would feel better then.

If I'm sad or feeling blue, I love to do my blogs and update them with new posts. I am so into blogging these days and I do feel good doing it. Even my wife would join me at times searching for new topics and ideas to post on my blogs.

I do something to take my mind off the sadness.

Hi There! It depends on the reason why I am sad really but mostly, I just stay at home in my room. I lie in bed then listen to music or just simply close my eyes and think... I cry as well... then when I feel better though still sad, I call my friends so that we can go tot he mall or just have a lunch and talk... Thank you for the discussion. Happy Mylotting and Happy New Year. Cheers!

I sleep if I am sad.

When I feel sad, the first thing I do is try to think of some happy thoughts! But its not easy all the time, and sometimes its helps me also! And I try to keep myself busy of watching tv or listen to music!

I eat chocolate. And listen to music. And drink Diet Pepsi. And cry. For starters.

I sleep, but if I can't sleep I just think of something that can make me busy for the whole day so I won't be thinking of those sad things in my life. Sometime if it's really a big deal I resort to drinking so I can sleep as soon as possible.

When i am sad, i listen to my favourite music, talk to my frnd who makes me laugh, watch my favourite tv shows, i laugh forgeting everything ..then i feel so ggood and relaxed ..

hi amzthienne! when i'm sad i sulk. ^__^;; i usually tend to get away from others and think about the thing that made me sad. but while doing that, i could be surfing the net, watching something or playing a computer game and doing it with an occupied mind so i wouldn't be productive with any of it. if i'm lucky, like if i got sad and i'm with friends, i wouldn't be able to sulk and instead, i would forget what saddened me because of my friends.

I go window shopping pal. It helps lighten my burden inside. If not, I call a friend and talk to her my problem. It's also good to know that there's someone who's willing to lend an ear during your sad times right?. Or I visit mylot and share to all mylotters my loneliness and if possible, ask some advices. It also helps. Just like what you're doin' now, you're somewhat sharing to us what you feel though you really have not specified the thing that bothers you but at least you're able to share right?. Godbless and cheer up. Things will get better soon you'll see.

If i am sad i try to cheer up myself by talking my daughter, watch tv,surf the net or playing with our dog.I hate to be sad so i always want to get rid of that feeling when i know i feel i am.

When I'm sad I go out window shopping at the mall and buy a piece of whatever I see that will make me happy.I do not want sadness to dwell in me because I'm already tired of being sad in the past two years of my life.When I'm tired window shopping I go home and pray as I lay myself to sleep.Praying tomorrow will be another happy day for me.
