Anxiety and the depression etc that comes with it can be horrible, Do you have bad habits in order to make yourself feel better about life?

I'll explain what I mean, I have a few,

A major one for me would be over spending, If I'm feeling down I buy stuff I don't need online, then I feel all guilty about doing it, then the item arrives I get all excited about it arriving, being a guy its usually a gadget of some sort, but once it arrives thats the fun over and its usually on ebay within a month at a loss, and ebay in itself is another diversion from my issues, the thrill of buying and selling and making money etc even though I'm making a loss 99% of the time. Needless to say I've got into a fair bit of debt with this by obtaining credit cards etc.

Another one I have is over eating, I will eat healthy all day then come home and eat nothing but junk and even go to the chippy a few times per week, again that comes under overspending and the thrill of spending money.

I also drink, not heavily, every Saturday night but again it diverts from my anxiety etc.

I also smoke, I'm not really getting anything out of that, I think its just a bad habit.

What about you?
