Is there a place you can go that makes you feel that way? Like, when you're sad or angry, is there a place that you can go that just has something about it that can calm you down. A place where you can forget about the day to day worries and unwind?

Beaches help me unwind, especially a beach on the ocean. I love the smell of the salty air, providing there isn't a rotting fish nearby. xD Sand between my toes and the sound of the waves are very relaxing. It fact, it can put me to sleep, which is actually a bad thing. Especially if I forget to put on sunblock. xD

So guys, where do you go to just forget it all and unwind?

well, being a single mom, I don't really have that luxury too often. but when I do, I like to go to my bedroom and read. my son will usually then go to his room across the hall and play with Legos and then I have successfully escaped into my own little world while being able to keep track of him and hear when things go bad.

My place like that is my boyfriend's bed. It's warm, and the quilt is thick and fluffy. When i cuddle in there, even by myself, i feel safe and secure, and i know that nothing can get to me there. It's just a nice place x'3

It has to be night time but i tend to go somewhere dark and surrounded by trees. but with a huge gap above so i can stare at the stars. Lowd music can help aswell. It all helps put it in perspective. Put myself at a distance from "everything". I'm a tiny blip on creation and it's not imortant. nothing is important. Just "being" is about all life really is.

It doesn't make me feel safe but it calms the world. at least for a little while.

It used to be that my safest place was under a bridge... a specific bridge. It was right by some train tracks.

But nowadays I don't really have a place like that.

I don't think I have such a place.

Oh wait, I do! When I feel sad or angry, I go to the gym. It feels so relieving to.. well, let it all out!
Of course I don't go there when I need to cry, I usually just crawl into my bed then. C:

Seeing that i have no real natural features near by me, my bedroom is most likley the place for me. It just has a different feel from the rest of the house, even just walking through the door i can feel it. It's my little haven.
I also like the summer house at the top of my garden. I'll go there when i'm sad or angry knowing nobody can here me rage or cry.

My shower.
I turn of on my shower head and sit in the tub, just let the water pour over me.
Helps me think of a solution sort of.
And it 100% me time.
And once I use all my hot water, I get out go curl up in bed, and take a short nap. ^-^

Staring at the stars can be very calming. I used to come home from a horrible day and hang out with my boyfriend, who was just a friend at the time, and lay by the road and watch the stars talking about nothing until midnight. Those are some of my best memories and it really did help me chill out after a hectic day.

Though it'd be far from the truth of nothing being able to touch me, I think my own little place to feel safe or to let anger/sadness subside would be when I'm sleeping.

I don't really have a place like that. Sometimes, I wish I could find a place like that; however, there isn't a place I can think of that is safe and calm, with no one around... I guess, to unwind, I go to my room and listen to music--something so common. ><;;

My brother’s old bedroom. It’s away from the other parts of the house and it’s kind of like an attic room, but it’s not in the attic, if that makes sense. No one knows I’m there when I do go in there and I’ve had people think that I left the house before when I went in there so it’s a good little place that no one thinks to look.

I guess that'd be my room.
With my music and my art stuff, there is also my SuperMan sheets ! BAM !

Yeah... But i'd like a place where I could scream and look at the stars.

I wish I had a spot like that, every time I try to go somewhere to be alone, my husband won't leave me alone. He can't seem to understand that sometimes people just want to left alone.

I love the beach, it is oh so relaxing and peaceful, if I am all by myself on a beach its as if nothing else matters at all. I could be the only person left on the whole wide world. I would die happy if I were on the beach.

About a month ago, I had a break down for some reason and I sat inside my closet to calm down. It was actually pretty roomy and comfortable in there. Now when I get bored, I sometimes like to sit in there and just think.

Yeah -
Have you tried talking to him about it? Or maybe just kicking him out of your room every once in a while? xD

woopdidoodoo -
Yay, someone else who loves the beach! It really doesn't matter to me if someone is there or not. I have this thing with drowning people out, so there could be tons around me, but as long as they don't walk up to me and kick sand in my face, I can completely ignore them. xD

My safe place is kind of annual. It's in autumn, and there used to be this row of bushes with an overhang that I could hide beneath, but my dad cut that down. Now it's just kind of...outside. When it's not autumn, however, the internet is my safe place. Go figure. xD

I don't have my safe place anymore. I use my crafting to escape the stresses of life now, which can horribly backfire when I mess up which I tend to do if I am stressed.

When I need to feel safe and secure, I take my down quilt, a pillow, and my ipod and curl up behind my door in my room. My door is broken so that even if it's locked, if you push lightly, it opens. Sometimes, if things in my family get rough, I even sleep there, turning up the volume on my ipod to drown out the world. <3

I go into my room - and either go online or read my mangas or novels. I turn on the radio or music player when I'm feeling itchy for some sounds. Usually I don't since the television is on in the next room.
I don't know why, but I love being online more than anything else. It's where I escape my pile of homework, the complaining of my parents, the annoyance of a lil sister I have, and thus, where I unwind/escape.

At school - I hang out with my 'crazy' friends or go to the Library - where it's very tranquil.

I guess that would be my room. I like to just sit there, read, listen to music, stuff like that. It used to be my tree, but then the lowest branch fell off and I can't get up as easily. And there's a wasp nest up there somewhere. >_<

• That's acctually quite easy for me to find for the first time in my life. No, it's not a material place, but one discovered through trance. I can walk down many roads and always end up at the same gate, bringing me into an everchanging forest with gateways to other worlds and such. The main area consists of a circle with other things that are hard enough to explain through text on the inside. It's the only place where I can go to and feel completely at ease at this point due to the fact that it's the only place in my material world where lies are not spun, nor do concepts exist. I do not have to worry about anything there but can talk with whatever happens to be there at that time. Not going to go into detail since that would most definately be hard to explain through the simple medium of text.
