Bio
"Listen to understand rather than listen to respond."

- I am currently NOT taking member chats -

***Leave me a message and I will get back to you as soon as possible. I mainly work with offline messaging (which means we both respond to each other when we get the chance, as opposed to scheduling a time). I look forward to hearing from you!***

----------------------------------------------------------------

I don't take chats on religion, relationship stress/breakups, child abuse (physical), politics, or eating disorders as I may be too familiar or too unfamiliar with these topics. This is both for my health and yours. I want you to get the best support possible!



The topics I do best with are PTSD/trauma, managing emotions, anxiety, self-harm, LGBTQ+, and family stress! I am comfortable and familiar with these topics, and will be able to support you as needed. (these are not the only topics I take chats on, just the ones I feel I do best with. You can read the rest of the topics I take by scrolling down to 'categories')

Self-Harm Recovery / by RiverHudson1
Last post
 July 2nd, 2020
...See more Hey SHR family! Its Tooooosday! Which means were at an impasse. The week has already started, and some of us may feel like its too late to decide how our week is going to go. But I disagree! Were not even halfway through yet! Today I wanted to talk a bit about how we view ourselves, and how that compares to how we view others. Self-love! I have noticed, and Im sure you all have as well, that we are often our worst critics. There can be several reasons for this. Perhaps it is because others have been unkind to us, and so we feel like that is how we should treat ourselves. Or maybe we focus on our flaws and assign a value that is out of proportion to them. A lot of the time, we can be our own greatest challenge in our recovery journey. So I want to put this into perspective. Why do we treat others with patience, compassion, and care that we dont allow for ourselves? And I know how many of us respond to that question: because I dont matter; because I dont deserve it. Oh, but why? How is it that among nearly 8 billion people, you are the only one who doesnt deserve kindness? It makes no logical sense! No matter how others treat you, it is difficult —I would even be bold enough to use the word ‘impossible —to be content with yourself until you treat yourself with the patience, compassion, and care you deserve. The saying goes, treat others how you would like to be treated. I propose a continuation to that : "and treat yourself how you treat others. Feel free to answer the check-in questions below → 1. What is one thing you wish could happen today? Can you make it happen? If yes, how? If no, why? 2. In your opinion and experience, what makes people treat themselves differently than how they treat others? 3. If you sometimes treat yourself unkindly, how has this impacted your self-harm recovery journey? 4. What are some ways we can practice self-love? What works for you? 5. What is one song that brings back a good memory? Could you share that lovely memory with us? I'm excited to read your responses! Take care!

...See more Hihi wonderful people making progress on their recovery journey! Hope I can entertain and intrigue you with todays' questions. And keep in mind that its a new day. Youve got this. Youre starting clean. Look ahead, not behind! Regret cant change the past and anxiety cant change the future (I definitely stole that from some kind of inspirational post). The change you can make is now! I know schools ending for a lot of people, and that can affect us all in different ways. I hope we have a bit of optimism for the summer. So much time! Learn a new skill, spend time with friends, make some yummy food? Or just chill in bed with Netflix; I understand and respect that. You do you! Enough of me blabbering, lets get to it! Feel free to answer the check-in questions below: 1. Rant. Give me a paragraph. Imagine that I am a wall. This is a safe space for you, let it out! I promise what youre feeling is valid. 2. Tell me two times today that you refused urges and tried an alternative/distracted yourself. If not, tell me two ways you might do that in the future. 3. Complete the sentence: Spending time with myself helps me _____ and spending time with people I love helps me _____. 4. Tell me one small thing that you are proud of yourself for today. 5. if you could create your own little caution message (and it would be the first thing people would see when they meet you), what would you write? For example, I might write "Warning: dry humour and overly enthusiastic! Looking forward to hearing from you all! Have a lovely day!

...See more Hey SHR community! I hope everyones week is starting off well and if not, that we have a bit of hope it'll get better throughout the week! I know the quarantine, online school/working from home, and just life in general have all been stressful and overwhelming for us! It can be easy to feel like were stuck and even easier to lose hope.

Sending love, hugs, and some questions your way. Feel free to answer the check-in questions down below → Questions! 1. How was the start of the week for you? Has it set the tone for the rest of the week? Do you think you could change the tone if you wanted? 2. Tell me about one goal that you have that you want to achieve in the next year. And one goal you want to achieve in the next five years. 3. Give me a quick description of a day in your life 10 years from now. Significant other? Kids? School? Job? Still on Cups? Hows your mental health? Where are you living? 4. Who/what is one person/memory you wish you could erase from your memory? 5. Whos your favourite musical artist/band and your favourite TV show/movie?

...See more Hey everyone I hope youre all having a great day :) and if not, I hope youre hanging in there! Maybe this week started off a bit rough, but I hope you manage to fit some self-care in today! On that note, today I wanted to talk a bit about self-care and what it really is! Self-care is not forcing ourselves to be in a good mood, or making an instant recovery, it is a journey. It takes time and effort. One step at a time, you got this! Do something that you enjoy, treat yourself! Draw, watch a movie, talk to a friend, dance to some music, take an impromptu nap, or how about a long bath with some bubbles? Pick up that book youve been putting off, smile at your pet, cook some pasta, take a nice walk, go explore!
