#SelfCare after a bad depression relapse
I think Im finally starting to escape this bad depression rut, so Im making a list of things that I do to make myself feel more myself. I repeat these as much as possible until I start feeling me again. Feel free to add on :)
• get a haircut! I tend to neglect my hair during a bad relapse, so I always end up with a lot of split ends.
• get your nails done! you dont have to get them painted! Just getting them cleaned up feels so much better
• plan an outing with your friends (even if you dont necessarily feel like it!) Getting out of the house and doing something fun will help!
• start a new book or tv show
• eat a healthy dinner
• go to bed early
• do something creative! Even a simple DIY will work!
• journal! I personally recommend starting a dream journal, or a gratitude journal
