I run a checklist in my head whenever im feeling really down. I think about things I know make me really happy, basic things. Friends, family, travel, motorbikes etc. And if when thinking about those I still feel down and pessimistic - I understand that it's my brain chemicals at play and Im in a funk. Doesn't help me feel better in that particular moment, but does let me know that later it will get better and there some context and comfort in that.
