Waz 4,212 Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 when your feeling a bit low, a bit miserable about things, what do you do to boost your mood and take you to that happy place............my biggest lift is listing to music which instantly makes me feel happy, and also going fishing, sea/fresh water, whats your mood boost that mellows you? Various, last year was a tough one and exercise really helped me to boost moral. But normally just stretching the legs with a dog seems to do it, specially if you know theirs a bit of game to be had Been a long grey wet winter over here & felt like I was lacking energy from the sun, mentioned it in the chemists and got some vitamin D which within a couple of days seemed to give me a boost to get going. Plenty of daylight now plus the days are longer so dont feel the need for it. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Born Hunter 17,639 Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Figure a plan out, clarity and direction usually solves the cause of the problem. Doing something productive, anything, just makes me feel like I'm moving forward, not getting swallowed by whatever shit is grinding me down. To be honest, I'm more often just a grumpy twat than depressed. LOL The countryside and the gym are two great outlets. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
