Music is great... as is an early night.. sleep can work wonders...

As a big rugby league fan, indulging in my passion is also something I would look to do

I hope things are looking up soon x

I eat sweet stuff and have a tendency to bottle things up. I'll willingly help or try to help others but Im not good at accepting the same when it's offered to me

I like my own company and my headphones with some good music playing through them, and a long walk!

Always blows away the cobwebs and makes me feel 100% better

I usually go to music and a nice bottle of red. Doesn't make the problem go away but I can forget about it for a while.

Go jogging or take motorbike out for a ride. Clear my head and get some fresh air.

I take myself off for a walk etc and then a chat with a close friend can usually help me see light at the end of the tunnel. Xx

Me. The hubby use my wicked sense of humour to deal with shitty times. I always try to remain upbeat. 2 redundancies will do that to you.

Look at YouTube and concentrate on all the fails videos. There is nothing better than shadenfreude to lift your mood.

Gym cloths on, headphones in music full blast go to my little corner in the gym and work out like a mad women. I get so wrapped up in my own little routine I forget negative things taking over.

Depends on what caused the shitty mood and what mood I was in previously.

Sometimes it is bash the shit out of a punch bag. Or running. The endorphin release at the end makes it worthwhile.

Other times I cross stitch or read tarot cards. Just shut the world out, and ignore everything.

I tend to cook a lot. I find banging the pots and pans about and making things from scratch therapeutic.
