Do you know yourself what the triggers are for the mood settings? I don't always know. Sometimes they come out of the blue for me, but sometimes they have a trigger that I overreact to. Today I had a job interview, which was naturally not relaxing, and afterwards there were things I felt I could have said that would have been helpful (I know, that happens to everyone!) then later in the day a colleague that I get on well with nearly all the time, said something to me that I felt was patronising. And I was only being helpful and doing my job. There is a chance she didn't mean it that way, but my initial perception of the situation has stuck and I feel depressed. Those things have now bugged me for most of the day and I feel really under the weather because of it. Even though I totally know I'm overacting. But my logical brain and my emotions currently will not align. I feel like crying and going to bed. So I will have an early night. I've done that before when coming home and feeling drained. Going to bed at 8 o clock can really help I find. Then I feel I can be me. I might do a short bit of yoga first, as they always say exercise is good for mental health. Often I'll feel better the next day.
