just wonder how do you guys put your mood up when you are feel a bit down ? everyone have thier on way of doing it.is it possible to share ?
 
Stick on some worship music and sing. or fire on gangnam style and do the dance. it makes me laugh every time and fires up those exercise endorphins! I would recommend worship over gangnam style though!
 
I definitely pray and pray against that spirit. I refuse to let anything of this world get me down for long.
There are days that are harder than others. I agree with Leelee though. Put on some worship songs. How
can you feel down when you listen to music talking about the one who gave his all for us?
 
Well, it sort of depends on the intensity and reasons behind feeling down.

If I'm just feeling "slightly" down, putting on music, journaling, or singing/playing guitar usually helps. I usually try to pray during these times, too.

If it's intense, sometimes I just lay face down on my bed and cry and let my soul cry out to God as well. He can speak to me and calm me like no one else.
 
Pray to God,listen to christian songs, go out and have fun with friends, eat chocolates, etc.
 
Go for a walk and a heart to heart with God. Always works for me :) Did about 2 hours ago
 
Cut my hair shorter, length depend on how sad i was.

But internally, it works best for me to go outside, going on a walk (whether in park, beach, or some sort), and when there, ease my mind with inspiring or meditative music, then examining and evaluating the situation, laying it all to God about it. Then proceeding with a THANKFUL heart - With knowing that Everything is just going to be fine - ALL IS WELL!!!
 
jumping jacks like 49 i like that number and i listen to jokes and hang in the sun for 5 minutes, prayerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
 
When I'm sad I talk to my mom or my boyfriend.
Going for a long walk is a nice mind-clearing option too if the weather is permitting (it probably won't be nice enough for that for another month unfortunately).

Most commonly, I'll drown my sorrows in computer games involving earning virtual money to shop for virtual clothing and house items with, and making my avatar (virtual self) look rich and epic. :p
 
wallow in my own self pity and drown my tears in a 2-liter of cream soda.
 
I have specific music (generally soundtracks) I listen to that uplifts my mood - turns the sadness into courage and glory.

For example..

Hans Zimmer - Tears of the Sun
Hans Zimmer - All of them
Vangelis - Eternal Alexander
John Williams - Duel of fates
Homayoun Sakhi - Josh

and there is also praying :)
