Stamping Out Ennui

[jamesq]

Ok, so anyone who's been reading for awhile knows I've been in a shitty mood. I'm tired of it.

I'm looking for suggestions on what I can do to cheer myself up. Note: Suggesting I just get laid will probably just make me more depressed. I need ideas that don't involve a partner.

Zanax?

Don't think I'm quite at the stage for antidepressants yet. If the time comes I'll get back onto Celexa. The good news is it gives you a wicked case of whiskey dick. The bad news is it gives you a wicked case of whiskey dick.

I was just watching this show 2 nights ago on Happiness and the conclusion is that we can create and control our own enviorment and that is where happiness comes from.
That has always been my Philosophy. That si why I bounced back so well after the wantimg to hurl myself off a bridge. I made myself happy.

That is really dependent on personality type. It's like an extrovert telling an introvert how easy it is to do extroverted things. Moods for me are something like the weather - I have to deal with the current atmosphere and wait for something better to blow through.

Now having said that, this post is an indication that I don't want to simply "weather the storm" and I am trying to pull myself out of it. It's just a skill I'm no good at. Hence asking for suggestions.
