How do you make yourself feel better after a difficult day

[Whelmed]

Just that really, I've had a difficult day today, nothing major, just couple of very disappointing things happen at work, home and school. Interested in how other people deal with such days. I'm having a glass of wine, listening to music and just generally trying to distract my thoughts from dwelling on it too much.

Bubble bath, takeaway, PJs out of the dryer and a nice tv show!
Sorry you've had a shit day

Mainly vodka... pjs and cooking dinner
I also turn my phone off and watch a movie

Nice meal, hot bath, comedy and realising that tomorrow will be better

Chocolate and a moan to DH who is excellent at diffusing these things for me.

Wine, headphones & little dance around the kitchen

Go for a run

I might watch an episode of black books as a further distraction. I've asked Ds for a funny joke, got a 5 minute rambling knock knock joke which involved a YouTube video somehow 😂

I've had a stressful morning today but relaxed by going for a 2 mile walk in the sunshine. If i'm driving alone then I find a good sing in the car releases a lot of stress!

I give myself a set period to think it through and wallow a bit in the poor me scenario. Come to terms with whatever has been disappointing, put a positive plan in place to try and compensate if possible, then distract myself and get on with the day as normal. I don't much care for linking treats to disappointments as I find it spoils them a bit with the association.

Cold glass of wine, a deep bubble bath with posh products, favourite pjs and a good tv show

Eat junk food and watch things like Malcolm in the Middle. But now I'm on Weight Watchers so I just watch Malcolm in the Middle and drink Gin

Clean sheets
Clean pjs
Hot shower
Early night with a nice smelly candle, a good book and some music - maybe indie or 90s trance
Both cats on the bed snuggling up to me

Always chocolate. Sometimes alcohol but always chocolate! I cross stitch as well, really good keeping your mind occupied.

Me too!
Feel really flat. Will run with my friends then have some nice tea.
Tomorrow is another day

For me a run or a yoga video, both seem to settle my mind and leave me more peaceful and ready to sleep.

I go to bed with the cat, the smaller dog, and a book. I soon forget the day.

Hot bubble bath with Epsom salts, a take out and maybe a glass of wine and then sit in bed watching tele

Pjs , bed , hot water bottle and either a book or my switch. Distraction is the only way i can relax

My perfect 'pick me up' evening would consist of a hot bubble bath with a good book, fresh, cosy PJs, a cuddle with my teenagers, an Indian takeaway followed by snuggling up with my lovely DH to watch a TV show (it almost makes having a bad day seem worth it!)

Sorry you've had a rubbish day, I hope you feel better after some inspiration from this thread and that tomorrow is much better!

A large amount of wine.

Wine, gin anything with a % really. Pjs, blanket and my book!

I always think to myself “will this day matter in a day, a week or a months time?” If no, then it’s not worth worrying about or dwelling on.

Gin and tonic and an episode or two ofThe Good Wife
