Whats your trick...

[sufisaint]

for making yourself feel better? I did one of mine today. Got on my bike and went out on a 6 mile stretch of straight road and opened all the way up...always does the trick for me...speed, motion, wind, roaring motor and a little bit of adrenlin always clears my heads. Always works...What do you do?

 

[Ice Cold]

Getting away from everyone and losing myself in a good book, or a favorite cd.

 

[HeavyStick]

I breast feed pigeons

 

[Sillyman]

Psychic self-mutilation.

 

[Ferrophiliac]

Go dancing, works every time

 

[morninggirl5]

Loud music, windows down, speeding down the highway singing at the top of my lungs.


Oh, the radar detector helps keep the day from getting even worse.

 

[tenyari]

I breast feed pigeons

Ouch...

I read silly things on the net.

 

[bad kitty]

I drown myself in a historical romance novel and if it has been REALLY bad I clean like a maniac.

 

[Dillinger]

Sex makes me feel better. But that requires another person participating - well, doesn't require it actually but I find it works better that way.

Other than that. Excercise. For me its not bike riding but running or working out with weights. I think that doing something physical over-rides any intellectual or emotional problems. Like you said, it clears the head.

 

[someplace]

I drive out in the open countryside far away from the city. It makes me feel able to breathe again.

 

[SpiceCake]

my trick

I ride my bike 4 to 6 miles.
I masturbate.
I listen to some loud rock-n-roll!

 

[lilrosie lips]

I sing. Old show tunes, 30's and 40's standards mostly. It makes me feel great and if I do it loudly it has the added advantage of annoying the shit out of everyone around me. So it doubles as a tool of revenge.

 

[Allexus_TN]

I cry, if I can. I sit down and scream and sob and shake all over.

Then I calm down, and clean. Sing while I'm at it.

 

[Raina]

I usually call one of my friends long-distance and gossip. They can usually make me feel 100% better.

 

[intrigued]

Phone calls.

 

[Blackpearlz]

Long walk in the park. Wind rustling through trees and grass. Complete silence--gets me high every time.

 

[sufisaint]

The other thing that always works is a walk in the woods...The best is during a snow storm...

 

[vengefulvixen]

My relief? Well, it would have to be nature. In any way, shape or form. If I'm in it, my life seems so much better. Whether it be by climbing a tree, (I especially miss the one in the yard back home) jumping in a creek, or just laying in the grass. I can just feel all of my stress and anxieties just drift away. It really centers me. Hmm, I think it's time for a swim now actually. (The best are naked by moonlight.)

 

[Black_Bird]

Phone calls.

Need one?

My trick for feeling better... a short period of mediation. One minute is all I really need.

Karate or a good cardio workout.

Sit on a park bench throwing bread crumbs to the pigeons. And when they're placidly feeding right at my feet; CLUB A FEW OF THE LITTLE BASTARDS!

It does the trick

My work truck has a big block and flowmaster exhaust, when i'm blue, there is nothing like an open lane on the freeway and a wide open throttle.....Bob Seger on the CD..roll me away.....

when i'm lonely, i get in the thing, blast off, grab the cell and...

make a phone call
