What do you do when you're in a bad mood?  

Hi, Downunder_dude! When I am in a bad mood, I will talk about my situation until I start to feel better. I will listen to loud music. I will also be alone and relax when no one is talking to me. I will go to the park and walk aroud just to hear the quietness of the air and breeze. The park relaxes me and my bad mood. I am so sorry that you are in a bad mood. I hope that you will be okay. Try watching a really funny movie, and see how that may help.. Take care..


I also find that spending time with God, will help too. Tell him all of your troubles, he is available, 24/7. He never has a day off!

Sometimes for now apparent reason, I will be in a bad mood too. Other times, there's something that triggers it. Both ways, I avoid talking to other people until I let all my steam out. If I can, I usually treat myself to a bubblebath ( the scent of caramel popcorn bubble soup somewhat calms me). I also light some candles and play some instrumental music (Japanese Melodies-Flute & Harp). WHen I come out of the bathroom, I'll have a warm jasmine tea. That improves my mood somehow. If it still doesnt work....I usually bring myself to sleep. 80% of the time all that worked, 20% of the time, I just have to confront the source of my bad mood and straighten it out...

Happy Mylotting!

i would prefer to be by myself. becoz i would not like to throw my anger on somebody's else. that is the best think to do. well if you cannot isolate yourself, you have to then control your anger. try not to hurt anybody in the fury of your anger.

I post to vent. I also tend to call people or facebook. I'm becoming addicted to facebook chats when I'm in a bad mood. Sometimes I'll watch a silly television show or read a fun book. Journaling helps.

Well, it really depends on just how bad of a mood it is. I am not often in a what could be considered a bad mood and it really takes a lot to put me in a serious funk where I would consider myself having a mood moment. So, depending on the circumstances and whether I am at home or out someplace I might listen to music really loud, go for a drive, write, talk about it, clean, do something physical like exercise...

If I am in a mood for no particular reason and not upset about anything I will just take some quiet time alone.

People may better leave me alone when I'm really in a bad mood and if I'm so pissed off 'cause I have this habit of shouting at them even if they didn't do anything when I'm in really a bad mood. So, what I usually do is just lay down my bed, breathe in, breathe out and try to calm myself. Nothing really makes my bad mood away until the problem that causes it is resolved so I try as much as I can to think positive.

If I can I also try to isolate myself. I really don't want to take out my bad mood on anyone, or snap at some poor sould for no good reason. If I'm at work, I will let people know that I am cranky and not to take anything personally. I will be the first to apologize when I do snap at someone.

I have gotten alot better at acknowledging that I am in a bad mood, being honest with why I'm in a bad mood, and resolving those emotions quickly to move forward with my day. Sometimes you just have to let it go.

I will do nothing,maybe i should go to work hard for myself,make some better as possible as you can. you can listen to the pleasing music and watch some exciting movies,then trying to forget all bad feelings.

when i am in a bad mood i will do somethings like down:watch TV!every styles of offer,the aim is to kill time.See a movie!comedy,romance,story which store in my computer.Shop around and buy something!of course this method is bad because you will heartburn your money after that.Cooking!i like cooking for myself when i feel sad.Give someone a phone!i like talk with friends at this time but not share my bad mood,i like tell us something fun in my life and then i will feel better.

Some days are like that, bad mood for no reason at all, and feel like punching everyone in the world. At those days, I will eat and eat, drink and drink, try to keep my mouth shut and not to send any email out, or else have to face the consequence of my outburst later on.
Prefer to curl up in bed with a book. Somehow reading calms me down, especially reading a thriller.
