Watching my favorite tv shows
People saying nice things about me
People showing that they care
Listening to my favorite bands and seeing my favorite bands/artists in concert
Talking on the phone with a good friend who understands me
Working out...well when I do, I feel better about myself
Comedy, anything that makes me laugh
Knowing a guy is into me
Getting through a hard night at work, then going home and listening to Stern before falling asleep

I honestly have a hard time thinking of anything...

Rain makes me feel relaxed. I love rainy days.
Laughing. It doesn't happen very often, but when it does, I feel a lot better.
Laying in bed when it's dark. I can just make my mind totally blank, and it rocks.
My favorite music makes me feel great. I would be in a mental hospital without it.
A good movie or tv show. Great way to escape reality for a while.
When something actually goes right for a change. Kind of vague, but I think you know what I'm talking about.

Sadly enough, I can't really think of anything that involves another person. :stu

Being with a person who understands me.
A really good movie
Glenfiddich single malt whisky
Stars. (well, stars don't actually make me feel good, but they make me realize how insignificant I and my problems are. They make me feel small, which makes me not care so much, which is almost like feeling good)

So far, the only things I have are:

*Nature walks
*Certain TV shows/Movies, mostly cartoons.
*People being kindly
*When I get my chores done without being asked.
*Music
*Getting complimented (rarity)
*If someone is interested in me
*Storms (another rarity) but heat lightening is pretty cool.
*Videogames sometimes are a fun distraction
*Accomplishing a goal/ improving on some aspect.

Mornings, i love how quiet it is outside and its so bright and beautiful

Biking to work, wish I could do that more but its snowing now

Hot baths on a cold night (Got lots here in Canada)...i feel like a kid when I get to take a bath :yes

Working with this one person at work who makes me smile and makes me feel good about myself and doesn't seem too judgmental

Playing Basketball this past summer with my cousins, i should have done that more with them...upcoming summer will do again

Listening to some of my favourite music while driving to work (Bloc party - so here we are rocks)

Having those moments when I'm not thinking about how nervous i might look or anxious and just being in the moment and living

Making others smile or feel good about themselves

Thanks for making this thread, feels good remembering things like this
