@cryptoctopus - Actually this is a good question Sir... "What do you do when you are in a funk? How do you get out of it?"
Truly, When i am in a funk, i just start to work hard. I do not waste a single minute.
And somehow if i get a free time, i used to read a book. By reading books, my mind get relaxed.

On the other hand, I think about the problem in an open mind, and, then face the truth without running away from the difficult. And i always think positively. Continuously, i think that everything will be all right, and the tomorrow will be more nicer than today...

And cooking.. I love to cook different kinds of meals. From that i am having a inner peace of my mind.

furthermore, i am revealing my inner mind to a trustworthy friend or a relation and talk about the matter. Then i can reduce the anxiety of my mind.
And also i do some plantation. I plant some vegetables, flowers. By loitering with the Nature also i can get out of funk.
In fact, this is a great post Sir.. I really admire your question.
