Hmm...this might sound weird, but I was wondering what you guys do when you find yourself getting moody.

Okay, I don't really know if this makes sense. :)

Sorry, admin, could you please move this to the pointless discussion area, it probably doesn't need a whole thread.

Hmmm.......tough question :) I just do whatever i feel like doing. My moods are wanting to get lazy and get on my computer. Or get into my bed and read a book. But these days,I cant afford these leisures due to lack of time so I havent had any of these mood-spangs for some time :)
 Let's see what everyone else has to say.

Assalaamu alaikum,

Hmm, I was wondering what exactly is moody, and here is what Meriam-Webster says:

Main Entry: moody
Pronunciation: 'mü-dE
Function: adjective
Inflected Form(s): mood·i·er; -est
Date: 1593
1 : subject to depression : GLOOMY
2 : subject to moods : TEMPERAMENTAL
3 : expressive of a mood
- mood·i·ly  /'mü-d&l-E/ adverb
- mood·i·ness  /'mü-dE-n&s/ noun

1. depression, hmm, that is not a good sign. Go read the quran or something, pray, dua, go out for a walk, get off the internet, read a magazine, do something you like, travel, take a break, change the environment, sit in an isolated place and contemplate the signs of Allah, etc :)

2. temperamental, that is not a good word either! Go to sleep, stay silent, listen to quran, plus those in 1 above.

And of course, you can always brood ;)

Wasalaam.

When I get moody or when I need to sort out my thoughts I water
our plants in the front yard and our back yard. And I do dhikr while I water the flowers and grass and it calms me. If I'm angry and my heart is beating fast, my heart rate slows down and peace desendes over me. Or I will weed out the flower beds, the feel of dirt, the beautiful smell of earth calms me down immediately while I do dhikr of Allah.

So take off those sprinklers from your lawns and water the flowers yourselves some time! :) It will help.

"Surely in the rememberance of Allah do the hearts find rest."

And instead of listening to music in the car, even if it's clean music, listen to the Qur'an. I have road rage ;), and listening to
the Qur'an in the car smoothes out my nerves, I can *literally*
feel my nerves relax. (ok, maybe a bit of exaggeration, but u know what i mean... :)  )  My heart beat slows down and I don't speed on the roads when listening to the Qur'an.

I used to write poetry when I got moody but then I stoped doing that, I don't know why?

do something to completely take your mind off the task...

go for a drive... a walk, sit outside... go on emai or Madina :-)

do something else! asalaamu alaikum. abdullah,.

.....Well first,  when I feel the mood swings starting I check and make sure I have taken my medications.  If I have, the best thing for me to do (for all those around me) is go into the office and get on the PC.  After some quiet time I can go back to everyone ready to face all the....."Mom where is my"... or "Mom he said that I"... or "Mom can you take me..." Or "Honey where is the?"... or Honey will you get me"
