When sad, what do you do to make yourself happy?

14 comments

1. Watching Tv-shows I have watched a million times before and snuggle in bed

2. I do a lot of shopping to make myself feel good, I go out for a walk & watch a comedy, or talk to a friend.

3. Cry, let it out then eat something delicious watching tv. Self pep talk in the mirror and remind yourself how awesome you are and that you deserve to be happy!

4. Take a bath or binge watch some of my favorite movies

5. Lie in bed and watch videos I enjoy

6. Running on my treadmill while watching TV cheers me up huge time.

7. Eat ice cream

   Watch fraiser or vampire diaries

8. Sounds odd but I read/listen to/watch a tear jerking story. I’ll let myself cry from that, and it helps drain my own sadness. It also reminds me that sometimes things get hard and emotional, but that’s part of life, and there’s happier times to look forward to.

   I’ll follow it up by doing something enjoyable. Can be anything like watching a favorite movie, playing games, or eating a comfort food.

9. Listen to my favorite artists or eat something sweet

10. Buy myself some boba 🧋

11. I give the sadness space. I welcome it, I wear comfy clothes, drink hot tea, cry. I let it sit with me as long as it needs.
