Comfort

Comfort is an interesting thing. Everyone has comfort in something. We could find comfort in our family's, our friends, movies, anime, or anything. Where do you go when your in need of comfort, and who do you go to?

In the context you're using the word, I'm infering that you're refering to comfort being a salve for when a person feels down...I can't remember the last time I felt that way.

I go to church. Other times, I sit down with a book.

Interesting question....


I usually turn to books, movies or tv for escapism. But most importantly, I turn to my mom.

Soft fluffy bed and lots of pillows, belly down, I prefer not to stand for too long cuts the circulation in my legs. Masturbation helps too...

ooops wrong kind of comfort,

I tend to endure what hold me down so I don't suffer too much. This tends to make me seem like I don't care about anything but myself. Sort of true, I don't like to fight if it's not necessary, and I will always try to find the easiest fastest most efficient way to do something.

I listen to music, and just kind of chill out and stare at the ceiling. I also remind myself that ultimately, the only one who has control over my life is me, so if I'm having problems it's probably my fault, and most likely getting myself out of trouble isn't too difficult.

1) the pillows... one of their jazz albums...

2) A sunny, but chilly, mellow autumn day with all the trees' leaves having changed color.

These two factors together = HEAVEN for me.

If you're talking about comfort as in just wanting to chill out and relax, then I'll either just kick back and watch some anime or play some video games. If you're talking about comfort as in a way to escape from some sort of depression, well... I haven't had to worry about that sort of thing since I was in high school like seven or eight years ago. I'd probably just go do the same thing as above anyways if I were looking to try and forget about the bad times. Masturbation is also an option for me (I've said too much).

I do the same thing. Plus check out AN. Which is weird considering the random flaming that goes on here.

It's not that bad here... compared to other places. I come here a lot too, but it doesn't matter if I'm depressed or not... this place is kind of my... well, I know it's weird to say this, but AN is my internet home.
