What Doodles Can Say About Your Mood

What Doodles Can Say About Your Mood

Article about doodling and what it can say about you.

When we doodle, we are generaly bored or something is on our mind. We doodle at almost anytime, if we are bored in class, bored of waiting on the phone, or something is bothering you that you dont know what to do about. But have you notices how you doodle when your in different moods?

What i am saying may not be true to everybody but it is true to a lot of people i have spoken to or what i have noticed about their doodles in certain moods.

If you are upset or angry your doodles will express this. Its all in the lines and corners and edges etc. If they are straight, jagged and sharp, your mood is generaly going to be one of being angry or upset about something. The images you are most likely going to produce are that of shapes such as houses etc and zig zags. Sometimes if you are mad about someone you may write their name but the letters are going to pointed and quite sharp. You are also going to be going over lines again and again.

Doodling when you are happy, your lines are going to be softer, edges will be more rounded. The images are more likely going to be ciruclar such as faces, animals or scrawling the name of someone you love over and over again. Yes scrawling words is a doodle. These letters are going to be more softer in appearance and more rounded. You might go over lines a few times but gently and only once or twice.

When you are bored something that is in your mind may be bothering you but the images will be mixed varieties. If you are bored and happy your images will still be of a rounded nature such as animals and faces but the lines will appear more defined as you put more detail in to try and avert your boredom. If you are bored and upset about something your doodle will most likely have more defined lines however there is less possibilty that will put more detail into your doodle.

If you are frustrated you may find that you just draw the same thing over and over again. Its more likely going to be something that is simple such as a plain square whereas if your in love and thats on your mind you are most likely to doodle something such as a heart over and over again.

Your doodles can say a lot about you as a person, if you are happy practically every day your doodles will express this. They can say a lot about what you do in your life, your interests and how you are feeling at that time.

Very interesting, I remember when I did doodle if I were on the phone or something like that , I seemed to do circles but now I never doodle, I don’t know what that means.

I find i am always doodling, i ahve noticed i doodle more than i used too as more things seem to be stressing me out, could be you don’t doodle as much as maybe you don’t need to preoccupy your mind anymore.
