If you are in a bad or 'off' mood, do you try to get out of it by thinking funny or ludicrous thoughts? Does it work instantly, or do you have to work at it?
I turn more "black" and sarcastic than I already am. Not good.

Cuddles usually work for me. If that doesn't do it, usually something has touched a nerve and I'll need to talk to a friend and shed a tear or two to get rid of it. I can easily not cry, but then the bad mood would persist and these days I never let anything bother me for long.
