things to do when you’re sad

kurogiku:

sad but kinda like melancholy like you finished crying and now you feel nothing 
~ pet a dog or a cat or a bunny or even your friend on the head gently 
~ step outside even if it’s just past your front door and even if it’s just for a few minutes 
~ (alternatively open a window or at least the curtain/blinds and look outside for a bit) 
~ listen to some sad tunes (or happy tunes if that’s your thing) 
~ if you’re having trouble i recommend “sad/spacey” put together by @eruptedvolcano my waifu 🌙 :

~ drink some tea or hot chocolate 
~ talk to your favorite person or the person who’s great at making you feel better
~ click this link: http://kurogiku.tumblr.com/tagged/my-aesthetic
 ~ or this: http://theanimalrescuesite.greatergood.com/clickToGive/ars/home and feel even a lil better knowing you supported a good cause 
~ take a bath or shower and then put on a nice smelling lotion 
~ put on a face mask (maybe you won’t feel less sad but you’ll feel good knowing you’re taking care of your skin) 
~ watch a funny video like a “rip vine” compilation 
~ eat your favorite snack 
~ write a letter to yourself or your friend or whomever 
~ watch your favorite movie 
~ put on some comfy clothes and look at old pictures (but the ones that bring back good memories not bad ones) 
~~ hey, i feel you, we’re on the same boat. it’s gonna be okay, we’re gonna be okay you just have to believe it. you’re so strong, you’ll get through it. i love you.
