[Quiet Man Cometh]

When I get down I usually look at what my schedual has been like and look for something I'm not doing. Going out helps, getting out of the house in general since I'm at home nearly all the time, even if it's just to walk around the street. I will write if the mood is right.

I will listen to music too, and I find that when I am in a bad mood, dour or low key music will help. I think in part it's a compatability thing. Depressing or low music feels better because it's understandable, while happy or upbeat stuff just makes me feel worse because it's talking about happy things that may not be availble to me at the moment. Power metal I find to be among the most uplifting an any circumstance. I have Hammerfall mostly but some Dragonforce is good too. There's something about kicking the *#$& out of the universe that helps thins along even when things feel really bad.
