When you are not feeling so good? One of the things that does it for me is listening to heavy metal, very loud! (On headphones) This morning: Iron Maiden.
Many things dependant on WHY and HOW I am not feeling great... Could be music, could be a car, could be a pretty smile...
Post-rock, cats, a genuine compliment (preferably from a nice looking girl) or going for a ride on my motorbike.
Quite a lot makes me smile, I'm one of those people who is often smiling throughout the day... usually for no reason. Some of the things on my list: Putting on socks when they've been sat on the radiator for a bit. Baking cakes and breads with my niece. The little model of a pig that I keep on my desk at work. The sound of my cat purring (she sounds like a pigeon).
I was about to say that dogs make me happy when I'm feeling like crap. Speaking of which, I'm having a crap week and was thinking of calling in with my brother and his girlfriend on the way home (it's not actually on the way ) this evening to see them and their Jack Russell, Spike. Other than that, music always perks me up, as does the company of friends.
I'm just being a tit Matt, I love dogs too In fact, I abhor the shooting of any animal, unless it's done by a marksman and he/she intends to make full use of the kill.
We've got a dog too and he does make me laugh. We got it to help me, I suffer from depression, anxiety and panic attacks. Our little Jack Russell helps me a lot, he's full of character and bouncier than a wallaby on speed!
If I'm feeling low I actually find music really pisses me off. It feels so false and fake trying to alleviate the storm clouds. But having said that, I also think Eric Idle's 'Always Look on the Bright Side of Life' is the very best thing in existence for reminding me to put things in perspective. Yeh, that^, and fail videos on Youtube
