We all have spells of sadness from time to time, so what do you do to take your mind off of things or get in the headspace to make a reasonable decision?

    I just lie down in dark and hear radiohead's music. Nothing hits harder than that.

    Listen to old OLD blues music. When there is one man and a guitar usually. More often than not I cannot even make our the lyrics. But the emotion and supposedly simple guitar playing that is in reality sublime genius, think Robert Johnson here, somehow can make me feel better.

    Love the blues and early jazz, a man, his guitar and/or a harmonica. Or a soulful woman like Billy, Nina, or Sarah really soothe my heart.

    I watch the Great British Baking Show and soak in all the kindness and support they show each other. It reminds me that there is still good in the world.

    Listen to sad music by artists I like (Des Rocs, iDKHOW, grandson, add in some Radiohead here and there with other artists)
    Talk to friends
    Talk to boyfriend and/cuddle with him to forget about the world
    Cry
    Do nothing and float on my bed of sadness

    Usually I'll listen to Boss Dj by Sublime. It's a comfort song for me bc i grew up with it always being really sentimental to me and my mom. Works almost every time. Had a serious mental breakdown in the shower earlier, and afterwards I listened to this song it REALLY helped.
