What would you do when feeling down?

Hi gyanesh, you are right it won’t do much better if we keep on working during the moment we are moody. You are very good in finding ways to ease yourself away from the down feeling moment. I do find to sit with cross legs on the floor in the temple could really make us feel peaceful as the atmosphere there is tranquil and holy. You remind me I haven’t visited the temple for quite a long time.
Thanks for your response and have a great day.

Hi cheongyc, yeah it is the good way to drive my blue away, especially to watch those little toddlers walking doddering around there. But it is rather sad that sometimes I don’t find any kid in the playing ground. Luckily that not far away from the playground there is a site where we could find monkeys hanging around. I like watching the mischievous monkey playing and chasing one another from the ground to the trees and also the other way round. The funny actions of these lovely monkeys could make me refreshed and drive away my unhappy mood.

Hi there, it is a nice way to having positive thinking when we are blue. Well I do find some of my friends, just like you, to keep on indulging in playing computer games. I was told that the satisfaction acquired from the challenge would chase away their bad mood. Do you agree?
Thanks for responding and have a great day.

Definitely, by concentration on something challenging, we can forget all the unhappiness. It's very much similar to meditation. Although I am not good in meditation, but I think it's a very effective activity to purify our mind and keep it in peaceful state. It's good to have good place where you can enjoy sighting the monkeys. It's not easy to find such a place in urban area now. We need to pay in order to watch the monkey in zoo.

Hi cheongyc, I’ve never though that while playing game your concentration on the challenging game could drive away all the unhappiness. No wonder I could see so many young guys indulging in the computer games while passing by the cybercafé. Now I come to realize that all the users lingering there are mostly meant for escaping from worries and down feeling after their monotonous and straining work.

I am sorry to learn that you need to pay to watch monkey in the zoo, whereas I can always watch monkeys in the nearby recreation park whenever I wish and don’t have to pay for it. It’s just as easy and convenient as to have a pause by the roadside to watch the adorable creatures playing there.

Hi TerryZ, I totally agree with you. Some of the ridiculous behaviors of our pet cats could make us laugh and blow away our unhappiness. I had kept pet cats before. They are very smart and lovely animals and I believe they could feel and read our feeling when we are together with them. While reading your words I couldn’t help laughing as I had recalled those silly things made by my loved cats before.

Yeah, I am glad that there are so many enthusiastic and caring people and you as well to share our feeling here. I could still feel your warm hugging my dear, though we are far apart in different places. Thanks for responding and take care.

Hi Desierra, I like to “sing as loud if I could” if I were in bad mood next time. It is really a good way, thank you my friend. I believe this definitely could keep me away from blue mood. Hey lucky that the neighbor house on my left is rather farther from my house. I think singing loudly in the bathroom won’t disturb my neighbor.

Hi my dear, I do enjoy eating very much but I am afraid that take too much food would put on weight. I think to keep ourselves busy by doing mylotting is a good method as well to forget about all those unhappy things. Thanks for your response and happy posting.

Hi sherlock, I am glad that you choose all the positive ways to shake off the blue mood. I would try listening and singing as well the upbeat music. I was told singing blue songs could also shake off bad mood easily.

I really appreciate you as you still could pray for others who are in down and out even though you yourself are feeling down as well. What’s more this is beneficial for the both. Anyway it is always those who are helping others would feel happier than those being helped.
Happy posting and thanks for responding.

Hi carrotcake, chocolate is my favorite dessert as well. It is the craved food for most of us too, but I haven’t tried to take it when feeling down. I think it doesn’t cause any harm to us to take chewing or melting chocolate in mouth as a means, to shake off our blue mood, and boost up our happy spirit.

Thanks for sharing this here and your response as well.
Happy posting and take care.

Hi apsara, thanks for your valuable kind and warm words. It really brings light to my living.

True, positive thinking is the important way of facing and solving problem. This makes life optimistic and hopeful. I think talking to my self when feeling down might lead to understand my true inner self. I believe, there it lies the root of problem. I hope this is the way to release the pen up mood effectively.

With your kind concern so whenever I come across time of low spirit I would try talking to myself hopefully I could tackle the problem.
Thanks for the response and have a great day.

Thanks friend and if it will help you, let me know then I will continue to follow my own advise.......

Hi apsara, thanks for your valuable advice, that is “talking to myself” when in blue mood. I don’t have any chance to try this way yet. Thankworthy as so far I still haven’t come across any down feeling. Anyway I would try your suggested method if feeling down aging in time to come. I would share with you weather it works or not after I have tried it later on. Thank you very much for your kind concern. Happy posting and take care.

Hi Charlie, praying can really enhance our confidence and perseverance in life through the spiritual support of religious believing. I believe this magnificent power can always create great miracle in every aspect.

Yeah, I believe all innocent kids are angels from Heaven who bring much joy to us.

Hi rinkub, I find there are lots of good hearted, helpful and enthusiastic mylot users here. Whenever any user here should raise any personal difficulty then he will receive lots of warm and kind concerns and helpful advices from the caring users here.

Hi my friend, I am glad that you finally have found your true ways which can give you hope and encouragement.

Thanks a lot for suggesting so many ways of helping me to shake off the down feeling. Thanks again for your kind concern and I feel very much at ease now. Yeah, to help those unlucky and disable who need help and care badly is the form of giving. And I do believe deeply, we will feel happy after giving much contribution to them.
Happy posting and take care.

Hi nannacroc, you are lucky that you have your own lovely angels around and could cheer you up anytime. I envy you that you could shake off your low feeling easily by just reading or sleeping. I believe you are an easy going person who is always happy most of the time.
Happy posting and thanks for responding.

I was lucky enough to have easy going parents and it was passed on. I try to do something about things I can change and try not to worry about things I can't. As Mr Croc suffers from depression at times someone needs to be in control of their emotions. I do realise how lucky I am to have my girls and their children close to me both physically and emotionally.
Take care.

Hi nannacroc, I am so happy to see you dropping by again. I believe parents are the ones who influence their kids the most both in physical and emotional aspects. Your girls and grandchildren must have been inherited this good disposition and they are inspired by you as well.

As you are an easy going person so very often you could escape from emotional problem when your Mr suffers from depression.
Happy posting and have a great day.
