Yep, music.

1) Music is always calming,
2) Get outside if possible. Walk, sit at the coffee shop or park.
3) One if not my favorite is going to the YMCA & lift weights or swim, but I haven't been since 2/10 when I messed up my neck due to extreme osteoporosis from the longterm Phenytoin use.
4) read the Bible. It reminds me of all the crap Christ dealt with, that there's things fat beyond me.
5) help others as it takes my mind off my issues however big they are.

Since I can't do #3 , I fall back to the others until I get this thing fixed.
