What are some text's or thoughts that you always fall back on when feeling low?

I seriously just open meditations by Marcus Aurelius to a random page and read.

I have my copy marked up with passages I liked and the wisdom contained in the book really puts me at ease and helps with anxiety when I read it.

I get into this mood every once and a while and the one thing that helps is exercising and hanging out with people. I find that when I get into a lonely/sad mood it's because I'm not doing anything.

Edit: even little shit like cleaning your car. Get off Reddit and Facebook if you're bored. I am trying to transition to only using Facebook or Reddit when I am eating or doing something else that doesn't require my attention.

That even if I'm feeling hopeless and bad right now, there will be a moment in the future when I'll be happy again ( or really really happy ) so I just have to ride it out. It always comes, sooner or later, no matter how bad I feel.

“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.” ― Frank Herbert, Dune
