Talking what do you do when you are having a bad day!?

Sign in to disble this ad
a lot of things have been going wrong, the day has been tough! had this feeling some times? how do you deal with it!?
for me, nothing catastrophically bad happened. just some stupid mess-ups adding up, bad traffic, buses, traveling, getting locked out! and stuff
but i had a really nice solid jam session with my band and have a gig to look forward to! but for the next one week i'd have to go everyday to jam that far and its kinda tiring already!
anyway so because i had a hard day, am pissed and thats making matter difficult and am screwing up everyday things and cant focus on practicing today! i know if i cool down i'd be better but thinking about the mess i made today i dont feel like chilling out my head one bit
so how do you deal with?

ps: think am ok, writing this thread helped

Glass of whiskey on the rocks, bass in hand...Also COD MW2 never hurts.

This is my plan for tonight since I need to break up with a girl after work and I know it's not going to be pleasant (sorry mentally prepping myself and re-enforcing resolve here)

Try cussing a lot then realizing that it hasn't made anything better. After that, realize that you have the choice to remain mad or not. It's a lot less stressful when you understand that you don't have to be mad and can move on. I find the days I get like that, my day gets better after I choose to move on.

Ive been having a bad time lately. Got in a car accident Friday, found out yesterday theyre totalling my car. Money issues in regards to my rent going up and needing to find a roommate.

I try to put it all in perspective, things could be a lot worse. On Wednesday I was moping around feeling like crap most of the day. I went by my parents to drop off my tax info and talked with them a bit. I didnt leave feeling any better, but then I got home. My girlfriend took me upstairs and practically forced my mind off the subject. I felt so much better afterwards.

If things wouldnt have gone that way I would have sat upstairs jamming by myself for a few hours, I think that would have made me feel better too.

Two Words:
Bong Hits

Funny, how those 2 little words seem to be the answer to so many of life's little problems

Bad day? I use the middle finger a lot. Sure, it's immature and I've been told "unprofessional" in board meetings, but I've also been told expressing your feelings is a positive thing and isn't this thread about being happy?

I usually vividly contemplate the murder (in exacting step by step measures) of people I don't like. For example, last night the people in question were chained to a wall in a sound proof basement, and I proceeded to bash their heads in with the mini bat, one by one. The mini bat part is important, because unlike a regular baseball bat, it would take many swings to kill somebody, especially because I'd start at the jaw line and move slowly up. It was pretty satisfying listening to them scream in my head, with their blood splattering everything around me and bits of shattered skull fragments crunching under my feet.

****EDIT****

I find that this song infuriates me enough to punch babies, but it is topical. I'm sorry Varun, you probably shouldn't click the link, it doesn't help, trust me.....
