If you’ve ever gotten up on the wrong side of the bed, these tips will help calm your irritability and save those around you from your foul mood.

You Will Need
Exercise
Your favorite movie or music
A project
Positive thoughts
Someone to talk to
An early bedtime
Fish (optional)

Step 1: Hit the gym(去健身房)
Hit the gym. Exercise releases the feel-good hormones called endorphins, which can turn a bad day around in no time.

Eating fish can also release endorphins and elevate your mood, thanks to Omega-3 fatty acids.

Step 2: Watch a favorite movie（看自己最喜爱的电视剧）
Watch your favorite movie or listen to your favorite music.

Step 3: Complete a project（做成一件小事）
Complete a household, outdoor, or personal project to feel a sense of accomplishment.

Step 4: Avoid negative thoughts（不往坏的方面想）
Avoid thinking about all the bad stuff that happened in the past. Concentrate on the good things, and on the present.

Step 5: Talk to someone（找朋友倾诉）
Talk to a family member, friend, or even a professional, and tell them what’s bothering you.

Step 6: Go to bed earlier（早点睡觉）
Go to bed a little earlier than usual. The sooner a bad day ends, the sooner a new day can begin.

Between 1996 and 2005, the use of antidepressants nearly doubled in the United States.
