I use distraction a lot as a coping skill and movies and books are part of that. I was wondering which of these generes you find most helpful to you, if you also distract with these kinds of things. I like comedies a lot, but I have a hard time laughing on my lithium, so, usually do not even try. When my mood is a bit lifted, then, I can watch them and really enjoy it. Otherwise, I do prefer thrillers to escape.

Thanks for replying, if you care to share!!!
