I dont know about feel-good, but fun movies that wont send you into a bad place.

- Mars Attacks
- Twister
- Any Godzilla movie
- Independence day
- Ratatouille
- Scott Pilgrim Vs the World
- Kung fu Panda
- Airplane!
- Naked Gun
- Hot Shots!
- Hook
- Nacho Libre
- Scary Movie (stupid, but good switch brain off content)
- The Mummy
- The Sand Lot
- Anchorman
- Coming to America
- Big Trouble in Little China
- Ferris Beuller's Day Off
- Shrek
- Shaun of the Dead
- Hot Fuzz
- Fantastic Mr. Fox
- Back to the Future
- Ghostbusters I/II
- The LEGO Batman Movie

Tried to keep "feels" out of the list and more fun. The Mummy is only kind of an exception to that, but those movies get a pass for the most part.

The Original ...Roadhouse. A story about a man hired to fix up a local establishment and falls in love with a hot doctor.

Pretty Woman. It might not restore your faith in marriage but it'll make you feel bit positive.

But if you want to go all alpha on it, then I suggest Wall Street or Scarface.

Bruce Almighty. The scene where Jim Carey took over Evan Baxter’s voice had me laughing so hard I couldn’t breathe.

I like Shawn Inmon's Middlefalls books. They are basically Groundhog Day with people learning from their past and turning their lives around.

Up - yeah it's sad at the beginning but it's about being able to continue to live your life and add new people into it.

Finding Nemo / Finding Dory - just keep swimming man, you got this.

Any comedy special but I would avoid Ali Wong's most recent one. She's great but the topic of this one is just a little too much.

The Mummy cuz fuck it, why not?

If you're into anime and superheroes My Hero Academia.

School of Rock

Look Who's Talking 1 & 2

Also, take the time to go outside and take a walk or swim. Journaling is helpful and if you already journal, reading some of your past entries might be helpful depending on your situation. Go to a movie or a play (even if that's not something you normally do). Grab a meal at your favorite restaurant. Listen to music. Don't drink. Go for a run. Redirect negative thoughts. For example, "I'm always going to be alone" turns into "I have friends and family that love me." "This is what ends me " turns into "This my beginning." Even if you don't feel it's true fake it until you make it. Cry if you need to. Reach out to friends and family. Do something nice for someone else.

It's hard but you'll make it through this moment.
