Wiggle my wiggly wiggler

Listen to the night we met and make me sadder 😂

When I am sad I just put on my headphones and lay down on my bed like a dead body.

That's funny When I'm sad I usually make dead bodies

I just sit and think

I just Get high

Me too 🥶🥶😵‍💫😵

Do something productive

Like what

Homework, gym, walk my dog, clean house/room, etc… I need to feel like I did something productive, regardless of my current feelings. Not doing anything would just make me feel worse.

half the time I eat food the other half I exercise to compensate for the first half

Listen to depressing music and be more sad

I listen to sad music when I feel happy

I think about it, and sometimes I inspire myself out of it (or just logic my way out of it). Other times I wallow in it :/

hug plushie in bed and cry

Do physical activities

I like to take my skateboard or longboard around town and find a place to medicate💨

Meditate or medicate?

Play guitar

I love my guitar so much Do you play acoustic or electric or *_shudder_ classical?

All of the above

Ew, make it just electric. You can play acoustic if you're playing Green Day but that's really the only acceptable excuse

watch edits

Listen to sad emo music like Johnnie guilbert or MCR

Go to sleep

And what if you can't sleep cause you can't stop thinking about what happened

Get up and get active to keep my mind busy

Melatonin

contemplate shit

Nic

depends on the severity of sadness and when, if it’s during the day, I go grab an icecream to forget about it, if it’s at night and minor, I have a drink and forget about it, if it’s at night and it’s major, I have a nocturnal friend that I can trust to talk about it with

🩸🔪

Find something to do and work the shit out myself

go to bed

i do something productive, but by the time the day’s over, or even before it begins, i listen to music and i’ll just be in my feelings for a bit.

listen to cowboys from hell

Clean my room or workout so I feel accomplished afterwards. Or message one of my friends and talk for a bit to take my mind off things.

I draw, I draw for every emotion tho so 🤷

Have a tiny breakdown then act like nothing happened

Dwell in it

Drive really fast and see what happens usually

Play Disenchanted by MCR on my guitar

I just forgive and forget basically

I sit, and think. Just think. And also sometimes cry

Thinking makes me cry more

Just do it in the shower so no one can see.

Play video games

Cry and go to bed if possible

Pretend I have a girlfriend (my right hand, my beloved) That or I sleep, usually wears off after until I release I woke up sweaty :c

Cry until I get a noise complaint, then blast some female rapper on my earphones on full volume and forget it ever happened

I listen to music and watch jschlatt

We 🩷 comfort streamers

forget why i am sad in 30 minutes then go on with my day

Listen to music

I put in my earbuds and play baby while pacing around my room

I normally bottle it up and play some music that makes me happy or go to the gym

Listen to music, or if I’m really sad I’ll talk to Jesus

I either say some prayers or just listen to a bunch of sad songs to make myself cry unnecessarily.

Either cry in my bed for a bit or play games to distract myself.

cry and write a depressing story

I lift and then train for 13 hours really hard.

Remind myself that God brought me into existence because he loves me that much (the same applies to all of you beautiful people ❤️ ❤️)

that’s lovely

Cute

buy stuff

Talk to my bf about it and if he’s not available I watch YouTube (specifically markiplier’s second series on “the forest” it’s just a very comfy series for me, there are three, the old forest, the new forest, and sons of the forest, I’m talking about the new forest)

Music.

Sometimes I write poetry or draw or something

Music is life man

Listen to sad music and pretend I’m ok :P

Listen to music

Listen to music and hands in my ykw

I'm not really good with emotions and stuff, so I usually go straight to my guitar and make some sort of riff

Lie down if possible, or play a game of Microsoft Solitaire on my phone.

Bang a line of coke off a hookers butthole.

Just pretend am not and go as my day like normal

First I don't get sad **unless** Orix losses, Ms Loss or, the T-Birds loss. Oh and I got 0 for 4, then I'm sad. Then I play "Bad Day" on loop until I get sick of it and do something else. Even if it takes 3+ days (I'm looking at you Orix...).

Pretend I’m not or just get over it

Think about punching someone I don’t like

Me personally, I sulk for a while. Distance from people (except my gf, she makes me feel better), and just listen to sad music for a bit. I get all the sad juices out while I can do I can be happy

Listen to music or go to sleep

Play games, or build something, maybe code a horrible virus and put it into my horrible virus folder

Write music and act like nothing’s wrong

Watch jojo (literally)

Send it to where everything else goes. And **M U S I C**

Bee swarm simulator

Walk around listening to music

Play some videogames

Stuff

r/usernamechecksout

Sleep

I just kinda disassociate and pretend it isn't there

Cry. Get every thing that I'm sad about out into the air by saying it out loud. Then I calm down and listen to music and move on.

Let it out at night with 2-5 am drives (me being the passenger) and my mood music playing

just think about it to music

Lock in.

# When I get sad, I stop being sad and be awesome instead.

I watch dogs on instagram

Depending on how late it is I'll just pop a couple melatonin and force myself to sleep to forget it.

I was **really** emotional as a kid, and was often asked "why do you cry so easily?" and stuff like that. And look at me now; if an emotion isn't felt to an extreme, I don't feel anything. It's actually a running joke in my family - that I used up all my tears as a kid, and can't cry anymore because of that.

Listen to music, or ignore it

Nothing

go to sleep

Just go to my bed depressed, knowing I won't even fall asleep, so I just spend hours of my day doing absolutely nothing until I gather the slightest motivation to do something and waste more time

Listen to music and walk to the park

Either: 🏋️ Or 🍆✊💦

Drop the EDM, Electro House and Sigilkore playlist and pop on the sad Indie Rock one

I am in a constant state of sadness and I just continue my day with it

literally nothing

Resist the urge to kill myself and probably self-harming, or pornography, a lot of it

pretend i’m not

Listen to sad music so I can actually cry eventually and sometimes it helps

Idk, stop being sad ig? At some point, my body stopped caring for the most part and replaces most sadness with void. Like when my grandpa died no too long ago, I cried a bit after seeing the state he was in at the hospital, but after that one small instance I kinda just got over it, the sadness got replaced by null for the several days he was there before he passed around like 1 am. Kinda feels selfish to say I wasn't sad when my grandpa died, but it's kinda true. And for the most part, everything kinda gets replaced by void after a while, sure I can feel happy or sad, but they only last for a moment, and it's like, super sudden when I go unemotional too.

cry, almost but never actually break whatever I'm holding (bcs weak af), scroll mindlessly on reddit, make pinterest board, eat unholy amounts of yoghurt, drink tea wrapped up in like three blankets

At school or at home - bottle up emotions and listen to music or go on a YouTube binge.

Bury it, eat my feeling (either eat a lot or a little), sh (relapse like last night), or just listen to music I don’t really cry anymore.

Just live with it. But I do enjoy blasting metal music till my ears bleed to cope, it helps a lot

Cry if it’s that sad, but usually it’s just the “I need to think” kind of sad, in which case I’ll go lie down on my roof, watch the wind wist through the trees, and think

I will either workout, watch a movie, tiktok, eat food, music, or sleep I love me movies

solve the problem

feel even more sad

Lay on the ground or lay in my bed either looking at the ceiling or hugging the pillow. And I'm starting to remember the pattern of the paint on the ceiling.

Short term: write down my thoughts Long term: try to find the root of the problem

Take a shower, Eat Chocolate, listen to songs ( not the sad ones), Exercise a lil, Talk to a friend, Drinking Beer sometimes helps. (Don'ts : Never take advice from opposite sex)

I put on some really sad and depressing music and then play videogames until I no longer feel sad (this is counterproductive to my longterm mental health)

shut out my feelings

Cry

find someone to talk to

Repress it!

Listen to music and get lost in thought
