By watching TV or a movie that always makes you laugh, you can take your mind off of your situation. In fact, sometimes smiling and laughing can make you feel better overall. Scientists have actually proven that when you smile, your brain releases happy chemicals that make you feel happy, so spending a while watching something that makes you smile can sort of trick your brain into being happy.
Our go-to watching material is Adventure Time, but it’s different for everyone.
