Try to remember why you're working. Maybe it's to make money so you can buy something you've been saving up for. Maybe it's to stay busy and socialize a bit. Whatever the reason, try to reconnect with it.

Hello! Sometimes, when I'm down and at school or work, I look through photos of my family or pets on my phone. I even listen to music with headphones if I can, that always helps! Using positive affirmations in my head works pretty well too. The important thing is to get home and take care of yourself, have a bath and wash the day away x

Try to count one to ten or even more when your still in a bad mood. Or maybe even take a moment to breathe and relax, just for a few minutes and maybe play with something for example a stress ball.

Since your facial muscles communicate directly with your brain, you can trick yourself into feeling happy by smiling. However, doing so can also repress your feelings and allow negativity to ‘leak’ into other areas of your life. For best results, think happy thoughts that naturally prompt a smile, turning up your mouth and crinkling your eyes for at least 30 seconds.

You think of one happy thought that makes you feel better. Keep a list of things to cheer you up. :D

We all have those days when we aren't feeling so great, but we still have to get our responsibilities done, so I know how dreadful it can be.
You could try to keep your mind busy at work and "block" what's causing you to be in a bad mood. Sometimes making conversation with your coworkers can make you feel a little better--a simple greeting, etc.

at work it might be hard. listen to a nice song that you love for a second. take a small break, close your eyes and center yourself. brief breathing exercises help a lot in these situations. you can also strike a conversation with your colleagues and make some jokes.
