There's another surefire way I know to get away the sadness and that is Elmo. Or in my case when ya tired of seeing the Raiders lose, I joke about them, calling them a mighty mites youth football league team, cause that's what they seem to be playing like right now.

I go to sleep, if that doesn't work then I freak out till I pass out, or mentaly break down. And when all else fails I dance, doesn't matter to what I just dance. And that tends to work the best.

I'm not the only person who freaks out and has mental breakdowns.. 
I usually wind up scaring myself...and I'm sort of OCD about stuff.
To relax, music and hot tea...think 1940's swing and big band.
I have those silver Chinese medicine balls at my desk at work because I freaked myself out so much and needed something to calm my nerves. When you roll them in circles in the palm of your hand it is supposed to be linked to your nervous system (reflexology) and the chimes are very soothing...although, to do it properly, you're not supposed to hear the chimes. =-(
Also, find the softest, warmest blanket you can find...
Or, put your blanket in the dryer and take it out and cover yourself with it. That's ~always~ soothing...
I post too much.  sometimes, I just need to learn how to shut up....

I wouldn't recommend putting your loved ones in the dryer however...that could have not so fluffy consequences. =(

I am the grumpy dwarf, the grumpy smurf, the grumpy care bear. I always hate people and it's not because they're jerks, though the human race has a remarkable capacity for it, it's because I'm annoyed by everyone and everything. I also can pretend to be the most fabulous, charming, life of the party people person you ever met if need be and hide my true feelings about the fact that I share earth. I detest optimistic unrealistic attitudes, the "if I believe it hard enough it will happen!" kind of thing. Seriously. Grow up and realize that life is not all sunshine and roses, (nor is it all rain clouds and thorns).
None of that means I'm depressed.
However when I get depressed, when I'm in that low blue funk about everything and I just want to disappear from all existance? I pray it passes. I pray harder and with more tears than I ever do for anything else. I pour out my heart in my journal and then I do the only thing I can do, wait and trust. My journal is interesting reading, I'll tell you that much.

You know, Polson and I couldn't be more polar opposites....on the exterior.
I post all my thoughts publically, whereas she keeps a journal. I like to scream and rant and be the center of attention. I am a spoiled princess whereas she is the badass punk rocker. I think that's cool.
I *do* believe if I believe in something long and hard enough, I will get my way always and will get anything I want. I was an only child and a daughter....I learned I'd get my way if by no other means than I'd eventually just wear my parents out. Polson doesn't believe in the "If I believe it hard enough it will happen!" philosophy. I think she's wise!
I'm the uptight, optimistic person all the time because I'm shy and gaurded. I always put on that smile and refuse to show people my grumpy side. Polson is the grumpy care bear, grumpy dwarf, grumpy smurf! She's not afraid to show people who she really is. I think she's brave!
I obsess over what people label me as. Polson seems to see the humor in the fact that people misjudge her every once in a while. I think she's in touch with who she really is!
Now, I will obsess over the fact that Polson may read this and think I'm stalking her. =-(

the other night we had a darts match and got crushed. Which was actually good, as everyone put down my terrible mood to us losing badly . . . barely an eyebrow was raised as I grunted 'goodnight' and stomped out (though I did hear an 'Elvis has left the building!' ring out as I went through the door! )
Sometimes, when you are sad and down, you have to get the hell out of there and be by yourself for a bit.

I am currently incapable of feeling sad at the moment. I have a Shaq jersey and Shaq shoes on. Shaq's ego wont allow me to get sad. But once I get into my work uniform, the sadness will be back!

I don't so much feel sad today as deflated and listening to the football isn't helping, I don't know why I put myself through this torture week in, week out.
Talking to friends really does help though

Steak and pancakes? What an unusual combination for a meal!
When I am feeling very sad and listless I'll go out to a four star restaurant that I can't afford and either sit at the bar and order a drink or ask for the quiet table in the corner at the back of the restaurant. If I sit at the table, I'll have a book I'll be reading and throw myself into it. Inevitably, someone sees me by myself and comes to strike up a chat, which of course is my underlying motive anyway....you meet very interesting people this way.

When i'm feeling sad, i usually find myself gravitating towards the kitchen, to the fridge... i use food to make myself feel better. Don't follow my example. It is a bad habit to get into. I look into the mirror afterwards and i hate and despise myself and that i have to use food like this...

My personal motto is, look yourself in the mirror at least once a day (preferably when you first wake up and just before you go to bed) and exclaim, "You are beautiful!"

Not only look in the mirror, but put on some Michael Jackson and sing

The Mirror
I'm Asking Him To Change
His Ways
And No Message Could Have
Been Any Clearer
If You Wanna Make The World
A Better Place
Take A Look At Yourself, And
Then Make A Change
and then moonwalk away from the mirror and into the kitchen where you can have pancakes!
