<![CDATA[I spent a good deal of the day sobbing yesterday.]]>I spent a good deal of the day sobbing yesterday. I'm involved in a lawsuit and I had to fill out a really detailed questionnaire which meant I had to look up all these small details and I ended up spending like 6 hours knee deep in horrible memories. I kept getting frustrated and sobbing and my neck hurt and my head was pounding. It was a really bad day. I'm trying to recuperate today. I need happy . What are your favorite happy movies when you need to stop crying and feel some comfort?

Iā€™m usually just watching Star Trek (well not the movies). Otherwise I turn to my favorite, Blade Runner: The Final Cut.

Although I find that music alone can already be distracting to me, actual tv/movies/shows are way more so.

But feeling that you are among friends/companions/etc. can be very reassuring and crank up those good feels.

It always makes me laugh.

When I'm really stressed I watch Howl's Moving Castle.

I've seen it so many times it's just reassuring to have it on, but I started to realize it's more than that. I thought it was because the characters were comforting to be around, and that's part of it too.

But I finally realized that the whole soundtrack, from the music, to the sound effects, to the voices, is soothing to my every nerve in a way that nothing else does?

No idea if that works for anybody else, LOL! šŸ˜‚

Spirited Away
My Neighbor Totoro
The Princess Bride

Not a movie, but the sci Fi show Eureka usually gives me happy vibes.

Hope you feel better soon!
