A new study reported on SWNSDigital.com looked at the top things people do when they're in a bad mood and want to feel better.  Here are the 10 short-term mood boosters people said work best . . .

1.  Eating something.  But not always something healthy.  Sweets are the #1 choice.

2.  Taking a hot bath.

3.  Distracting yourself with a TV show or a book.

4.  Cooking something, or baking.

5.  Deep breathing or meditation.

6.  Cleaning your place.

7.  Exercising.

8.  Just going outside and getting some fresh air.

9.  Talking it out with a friend.

10.  Hanging out with your pet.  A stiff drink just missed the top 10 at #11.
