On a bad day - what do you turn to for comfort?

We all have really bad days and when I do I often feel I’m floundering and don’t know where to turn to find some comfort and make the world feel like a less completely hostile place. What strategies do you use on those days when everything feels completely overwhelming and bleak and you’re feeling hopeless about life? What helps?

  • That’s interesting. I’ve also heard people talking a lot recently about cold showers and cold water baths and the the way it impacts on depression etc. 
    Food wise I tend to turn to pasta meals, or toast with a lot of butter. Comfort food certainly.
