seems a few people are having a hard time on the forum lately, thought we could all share some tips and ideas on keeping sane and not letting ourselves get too down!

Gym. Works for me right now...really helps lots.

Exercise is always good.... Run to the supermarket and buy a bottle of Vodka...




Just joking but really the last thing you would want to do is exercise when you are down but it does help... its the breathing, the focusing, chemical changes in your body...etc the fitness stuff is just a bonus...

I have posted on my mirror, "You are looking at the problem".. It seems to work just fine for me..

I work out, and practice my martial arts.. and sometimes post about it here..

I need to be on my own when i feel like that, can't bear to inflicit me on others

Take long walks or gym - helps u take your mind off quite some things and also release endorphins.

Keep a collection of movies - comedy and anything that's funny and amusing.

Avoid reading newspapers, watching news bulettins and current affairs programmes - reality is negativity.

Planning a holiday? Go to a kids'park say Disneyland or anything of the sort - it's healthy to relive childhood but only if you're not one of those addicted with what i do call "Peter Pan Syndrome", that is fear of growth and its' responsabilities.

Whichever one's choices, I think it's best keeping away from the forums if you feel there are threads that you see as a threat. I've noticed quite an increase in sarcasm over the posts. After quite some time posting and reading here today was my first time I saw a thread degenerate so badly that the moderator had to lock it and stop further chaos being posted over.

I put on my Bill Bailey Part Troll Tour DVD.... works a treat!! Especially his love song about the deer with the snowflake on its eyelash....... hysterical...!!

wow!

thanks friend

I sleep a lot

heals the body and the mind

I pamper myself, put on good music, pray.

seek aswers within

The easiest way to brighten my day it to try and brighten someone elses day

I have a soak in the tub,
...very,very hot water,with some of the most beautiful smelling oils,burning candles,lights out.
.....And I cry,and I cry out loud.
Then I take deep breaths,and I breath,
...I wash up,
have a shower to rinse off,
...to were I brush my teeth and oil my skin with perfumed lotion,inhailing all the scents that are around me.
Reflect in the mirror as I talk out loud...stretch,and roll my head...place my hand on the door handle,leaving all my troubles behind....:)

I think about and pray for those less fortunate than I am..

When the forum is making me feel annoyed, like today......I take a break and actually get some work done

I usually exercise...or listen to music..

a nice relaxing bath sounds lovely right now!

i try to focus on good memories.

even though life has been sad and tough at times..
it has also been Happy and uplifting...

It is hard to stay down for long when i look back at the birth of my children, and remeber little moments and sayings they have had as they grew
