Time only time but camping helps me to clear my head.

Having a hard work out and then some food. But if I'm really in the pits that is only a temporary fix.

-animals - dogs and cats mainly. even though i don't have one myself, they make me smile
-going for a run. knowing i might not be able to fight the emotional pain, but being able to block out the physical pain during the run, gives me a sense of achievement. plus there's a certain euphoria that comes afterwards which makes it all worthwhile.
-daydreaming about how i'd like to be with people, what i wish i could say to them, how i wish i could be.
-listening to cheesy happy pop music from when i was a kid without worries

Typically, going to the gym (particularly a cardio workout) will do the trick. Also, listening to some of my favorite music is good as well as going for a spirited drive.
