I feel ya...I just had a killer one tonight. I just took a walk for about an hour. Guess what? Didn't help. Same here... thank God for JSH!!! I use to handle it by goin to strip clubs, bars, and even one night stands; but I realized I have 2 sons that look up to me and I'd rather do everything I could to keep a smile on their faces even if I ain't smilin on the inside. Just waitin on the right woman to bump into me! wow - I think that is the first time I ever saw you post without making fun of someone. I never saw your serious side. Kudos to you.

Hi All Im usually a pretty upbeat person, but lately Ive just been pretty down- lonely I guess. And Im sure its just a temporary rut, but any tips on how to get out of this rut- or on how to distract oneself while going through it? Thanks well first of all I want to say I think that you are very brave and wise to have enough insight to not only admit it but also to be honest about it .. that being said .. sometimes the weather can do that.. I dance in my underwear in my living room like a mad woman ..or I might drive a different route to work .. I write my obituary to get myself motivated .. different things like that ...

I'm usually just making other people laugh. Most of the people know that on here. The devil makes me do it!

Hey Yeah, Im trying to listen to pretty upbeat music. Strange thing is I usually like really emotional songs(i.e. Faith Hill-Cry), I cant even stand them right now. But everyone here is really helping. :)

I wasn't able to help this time... Seriously, destroying something will help.

And Im sure its just a temporary rut, but any tips on how to get out of this rut- or on how to distract oneself while going through it? Thanks I think we all go thru this... I do once in a while and I find that coming on here or watching something that makes me laugh usually alleviates it.. If it goes on for more than a few hours then I will sit and decide what is really important and controllable and what is not controllable i have to leave in God's hands and look for other outlets for what I can control.. Working out, laughter, friends, etc....
