Another confession . . .
I'm depressed and *in a bad place* - what works for you to *snap out of it*?
I think I'll strap on the iPod and walk at the Marina - see if that helps any.

1. Walking works for me.
It works twice as well if I'm also exploring a new place.
Hope the Marina walk works well for you

2. First of all...
Forget the notion of "snapping out of it".

Surround yourself with things that make you happy.

When a negative thought enters your mind, FORCE yourself to replace it with a positive one.

Exercise.

Eat well.

Get some medical help if it is necessary.

Take comfort in your friends and family.

Good luck...it happens to the best of us. :hug:

3. Another vote for walking...
Something just happens to me at around 2 miles or so and my mind just slows down and sheds some anxiety. I hope you feel better soon!
