When things get hard in your life, how do you coax yourself through the difficult bits?

Hm I tend to tune out by doing things like reading fiction.
Playing ukulele/singing raises the spirits if I can get over the inertia to do it.
Doing interactive things often takes me out of myself.

Reading fiction seems like a good way to get the brain to ease off a little bit.
I find it's been hard to sing recently, mostly because I do a lot of my singing with a chorus lately and I miss it.
