1. Writing in my Journal.
2. Walking.
3. Music.
4. The Radio (when I'm alone) as that means I get the comfort of Music and another Human voice. ]]> feeds@yuku.com (GingerNinja83) http://madnotbadforum.yuku.com/sreply/15845 Wed, 06 Feb 2008 11:05:17 GMT http://madnotbadforum.yuku.com/reply/15773/t/Coping-With-The-Low-Days.html#reply-15773
put on my favourite, comfiest clothes. then i feel safe and secure.
