Complain about it, then play video games to release the stress.

I try to avoid getting beaten down in the first place, though, by simply forcing myself to be positive every second of every day, unless I'm taking a moment to complain. Life is awesome to me, even the sucky parts. I try to value the horrible bits of life just as much as the awesome ones as both being unique, precious experiences, though I realize that not everyone has the ability do that.

Sleep. Wake up for pee and a drink. Sleep. Repeat until I find myself feeling chirpy again. Drift off and let my thoughts take me where they will. Do Not Ruminate.

I like to go for a long walk and just think.

Listen to "And I Am Telling You" (Holliday, not Hudson).

Watch my videos of sailing excursions that I have been on and remember the good times. Life can beat you down but you are the only one who decides if you are going to stay there. Nothing is ever permanent, good times, bad times, mediocre times, are all fleeting.

Edit: If I am really really really feeling down then I just watch this video in a loop. 5 minutes later I am laughing my ass off. https://youtu.be/faJx8ikHJAo
