If you walk into my room and you are overwhelmed by the sauna-like heat, I am probably in a bad mood. My heater calms me. If you walk in my room and you hear Glen Hansardβs voice on the Once soundtrack (most likely on repeat), I am probably in a bad mood. Music calms me. If you walk in and see me cuddled under covers in sweats and a sweatshirt in the corner of my bed with my stuffed monkey I got three summers ago, I am probably in a bad mood. Comfort calms me. I will try to help myself. I will try to distract myself from what is bothering me. I will not let this beat me.
