This forum is straight emo today. I don't get it. Anyway, I try to make people laugh or find small things that make me laugh. Also, bowling, drawing, and finding company in others works.

I masturbate furiously. When I'm in one of my fits of blackness, I have to wear protective headgear due to the intensity of the climax and post-ejaculatory reaction. As I cinch the chin strap, I usually begin to cry. By the time I put the bite plate in and make the first stroke, I'm sobbing uncontrollably... it's a reaction that I don't understand and won't pretend to. The headgear is necessary, tho, as I have blacked out repeatedly post-climax and woken up in odd places- different rooms of the house, my lawn, etc. Sometimes a neck brace is also needed if it has been an especially bad day.

Shamelessly stolen from Henry Rollins. Did it help at all? No? Well, just remember that no matter how bad it is, likely there is some poor bastard out there with no computer to post on, no house to live in and no food in his stomach. That's why I volunteer once a week at a soup kitchen nearby, helps keep things in perspective and you meet some crazy characters that way.

Using any kind of drug or alcohol to change your mood is really dumb. If your in a bad mood getting drunk is just going to make you drunk in a bad mood. Drugs and alcohol should only be used for goodtimes.

Not really, at least not for me. I've been having an absolutely terrible week for the most part, and after my laptop decided to misbehave and end my plans for a night of fun-filled programming, I called a friend up, went downtown to a quiet bar, had a few drinks and some chit-chat, and I felt great for it....and I actually got more than two hours of sleep for once.

I listen to the Smashing Pumpkins, Adore specifically. Then again I'm probably confusing shitty mood with depressing mood. Eitherway, the Smashing Pumpkins help me out. Once to deal with how bad things were, I'd try to indulge myself in it in hopes of getting inspired in some literary or art form. :lol

Yea, smashing pumpkins help me out a lot.


Really shadow? I'm curious, I'd like to subscribe. :lol Seriously though, believe it or not, sometimes hearing other people out helps you to at least take a break out of your shitty mood. Least for me.

I cut myself.

Did I say myself? I meant dirty hobos.

Actually I don't know what I do. My worst mood typically goes hand in hand with a sense of apathy and hopelessness, so I tend to do nothing and just wait it out. Maybe I'll scour the internet for funny shit to lighten my mood.

That sucks.

If it's cold/dark I'll make a huge cup of cocoa, put on a pleasant music mix set to random (kings of convenience, jack johnson, feist, mirah, postal service, rufus wainwright, sufjan stevens, etc.) and curl up with a nice book. Or if it's sunshine and warm outside I'll make some iced tea, put similar music on headphones and just chill on the bench swing in the backyard. Or if one isn't busy, I'll hang out with one of the nicer and prettier girls I'm friends with and just enjoy their company (shallow, but I think it's a typical part of wanting to be comfortable that people don't often admit to)--at a restaurant if it's cold or at the park if it's warm, a local coffeehouse for inbetween times. If I'm in any way tired I'll likely just go to sleep with some light music on.

Zazen.

If something pops up that rubs me the wrong way I just go sit down, find out what it is, see why it is bothering me, then let it go and go on with my life.
