How do you handle a bad mood?

God damn I hate being in a bad mood. Sometimes you just find yourself highly irritated. Not depressed or sad, I mean just fucking short-tempered. Doesn't happen often to me and when it does, it is typically short-lived - I don't carry it around with me.i.e. I dont take it out on others mostly because my personality is to keep it all in anyway.

What do you do in these situations or how do you react/handle it? Me, I do a lot of internal swearing a cursing. Like right now I keep saying to myself HOLY FUCKING SHIT IM PISSED THIS SUCKS WTF MOTHER FUCK, stuff like that and it seems to give me an avenue to release the frustration. So mostly I keep it to myself and deal with it and then at some point (hopefully sooner rather than later) it subsides.

Somebody say something funny or not annoying so I can distract myself from my pissed-offedness. thanks fuckers
 
I spend time alone doing something I like. Usually if i'm in a bad mood for seamingly no reason, its because I have some underlying feeling of being taken advantage of, or neglected, misunderstood, or unapreciated.

So, i do something for myself, have a little internal love fest dialogue, and feel better.

hope your bad mood dissapates soon.
 
I just try to keep quiet..and when someone asks, I just say I'm tired. That way I dont say something that I will regret.
 
I am almost never cross.

Last night I was bathing my girls and they were being typical knothead kids and I began to become upset that they were pretty much too old to be thrashing about getting all of us wet.

Then I was reminded that I would not have the luxury of them getting me wet on the following night.

Made me a whole lot happier that they were still young enough to WANT ME to wash their hair (the older two are too old for that now) and even happier that they were getting us all wet.

interesting you say that what causes you to be in a bad mood is more being neglected or misunderstood.


for me, it's just about always that someone else has said or done something totally fucking stupid and it affects me or someone close to me in some way. incompetence is what fucking gets me fired up. that's about it i guess

Incompetence gets me mad too (only when it affects me or a loved one directly), but being mad doesn't often lead to me being in a bad mood unless I get FURIOUS. That only happens when I feel very personally attacked on some level.

a regular old bad mood, the kind that you can't explain and just leaves you short tempered- thats often from feeling taken advantage of in my case. it often goes hand in hand with incompetance though- if i've hired someone to do something and they think they can get away with fooling me into thinking they've done their job and they haven't.. I'm not stupid.. i know when i'm being snowed... stuff like that. I want to say 'fucking just shut up'.

just do something relaxing or for yourself (or with your family). even a short walk does it sometimes- i get some fresh air and sun and feel better.
:heart:
 
Keep it to myself. I used to punch holes in the wall but it got expensive after a while.

God fucking forbid if some stupid little girl asks me what is wrong more than once.
 
leave work or my desk for a while, if im in a bad mood with my girl or something, she is one of those lucky girls that understands we all have our bad days , so its all good.

I used to go outside for a smoke and that fucking worked like a charm! Calms the nerves like buttah.

But I dont do that anymore.

NYCGirl, I dont feel comfortable talking with people around me about what's going on inside. I guess it's because it comes off as a burden or a bother to the other person. That's my own personal issue though because I cant stand it when people have diarrhea of the mouth and they never shut up about their personal nonsense or about how they feel every minute of the day. I firmly believe that people need to do a better job of coping. I see way too many adults who just can fucking hande anything and they are always leaning on other people for every little decision and issue. Just be an adult and deal. ya know? I just dont want to be like those people who irk me so much
 
A couple weeks ago while I was still trying to get rid of the worst cold I have ever had, my wife and I took her mom to Animal Kingdom here at Disney. The minute I woke up, I was a raging asshole. Everything that came out of my wife's mouth had a nasty response from me. I bitch about everything from having to pay money to get into the park (out of the 20-30 times I have been, I have never paid) Dumbass tourists, having to sit in my mother in laws shoebox of a car, then about totally going off on the dealership manager who thought it would be good to wash our car to try and keep our business. Yet when I looked at our Envoy, it looked more like it was run through a cheap carwash and barely vacuumed. Everything drove me through the fucking roof

Oh, I was the same way. I didn't want to be a burden. Nor did I want to be the person you described above. I don't constantly complain about shit being hard, and looking for "everything will be okay" from people. If I'm in a hole, I have no problem silently digging myself out. However, I realized, recently, that being that way all the time was hurting me. I don't throw everything on this one person, it isn't his responsibility. But, talking has helped.

Its better than the other thing I use to do, eat.
 
A martini and 2 Xanax put me right back in a good mood.

Where THE HELL do you find these?

If looking at this stupid pic doesn't put you in a better mood, I dont know what will. :)




PS - I am STILL extremely private and rarely open up about what upsets me. If I dont talk, then I wont be let down.... right? I just sent an email to someone the other night when I was VERY VERY upset and the reaction I got from that person was... "that email was pretty bizaare."

I will NEVER open up again... I know it isn't his fault that he didn't know how to handle my outpouring of emotion, but I also dont NEED for him to make a comment like that (not that he wanted to hurt me, he just didnt know what to say) because it hurt my feelings.

Oh well.... I will go back to being "happy Jack" for everyone else.

masturbation helps



agreed ...I find that when I am having a bad day or in a bad mood ...just take some private time and rub one out ........then lay back and have a smoke


the only problem is my hand always wants to talk and cuddle afterwards
 
Mood?... I thought you said Mod.... My actions speak for themselves...

I use to hold it in and then explode.

Now, I talk to someone about it.


That's how I used to be also. I'll usually go lifting or do some cardio and just run my ass off. Will feel relaxed about it.
 
Avoid contact with other people. If I'm completely pissed off I'll meticulously clean and do various running maintenance on the bikes and the truck. Sometimes when the world around you seems all fucked up it's comforting to be sure that at least something is looking sharp and in prime working order.
 
Smurfy,

Be glad that you feel irritated, it is a sign that you are alive and well. If our lives were nothing but happiness we would be unable to determine the state of happiness. The shadow needs light to exist. The light is independent and does need the shadow to exist. Do not let the situation get the best of you. You are still here.
 
When I'm in a bad mood I tend to get quiet. I don't really like to talk to people when I'm moody, I'd rather sit there being pissed for a bit on my own. Lately though I try to look at whatever's bothering me and put it into perspective. Most things aren't a big deal in the scheme of things.

The sucky thing about when I'm actually moody is that if one little thing gets to me, suddenly everything gets to me all at once and I get overwhelmed. That's kind of how today was to be honest. I was moody and kind of emotional (fuckers gave me the generic of my bc and 1 week in I'm all emotional). I knew I had yoga tonight though and I struggle through class if I can't let go of everything before I go.

So now I'm just winding down. I got lots of puppy kisses and I'm just getting my mind ready for class at 630. :)

Loud angry music and deadlifting will cure most moods and most illnesses.
