What makes you feel better when the world is falling apart?

It could be anything from a hug to a cuddly plushie or your favorite song or your favorite food π₯°


π Lots of sleep. βοΈ βοΈ βοΈβοΈ βοΈ βοΈ
βοΈ Knowing there are other people out there fighting.
π΅ Keeping me busy/distractions
@sociableGlobe3198
Oh nice, thanks for sharing: sleep, inspiring people and distractions/ things to keep you busy, they surely help us feel recharged and uplift our mood π

π love this one

The fav food thingy actually works for me sometimes..idk..I'm a foodie so ya..tht lightens me up a bit..Other things are music and reminding myself that I'm there for myself ,tht I've been through other hard stuff so I'll get through this too...how bout u?:)

Also reminding myself that there are people out there having it even harder works wonders as well..
@amicableSkies4381 Nice to see you again <3
I love food too haha it is quite an instant uplifter at times, what's your goto food?
I like that and it reminds me of a quote too, something like "you've survived 100% of your bad days till now, you got this" it is really motivating to keep going , I'm happy it helps you too
I have conflicting views about the other reply, about reminding yourself that other people have it worse π I feel I'm harsher with myself so I'd agree with that for me lmao but I want to tell you (and probably myself too hehe π) that it is ok for us to struggle as well, our struggles are valid as well, we can have compassion for someone having it worse than us or gratitude that we are doing somewhat better , but even so , we deserve all the validation and support we need π that was a really kind perspective tho ... thanks for being so thoughtful!

My goto food is this 1 indian course tht my mum makes. I really love it. Its typically indian so its hard to explain exactly. And ya..u r really right. Its heartwarming to see how u care for anyone with a struggle no matter how small. Everyones havin a war of their own which is hard enough for them to deal with..Might seem easier to u, harder to me or vice versa even tho we look at the same thing.. U remind of this other person who once said the same thing, to not look down on ur problems..Someone from my fav music group. That was the 1st and only time I had actually heard and thought bout it and now its u...I really hope things ease out for u if youre ever goin through anythin...Wish u alottt of happiness:) Im glad to have talked to u again and hope I can do so again soon...

although some say its unhealthy often times if i get to overwhelmed i will sleep a lot and tell myself tomorrow is a new day and will be better. If that does not work or i cant sleep cause whats going on is just too intense and its a nice day i will either go on a walk or sit in my back yard close my eyes and meditate.

A squishmello my bf gave me i just hug it and cry
@human209 squishmallow is cute π₯° hope you don't get too many reasons to cry though :(

@Optimisticempath
I broke up with him he was toxic and now I have someone who is really nice and loves me for me, not some fake version of me I made π and this bf gives me his hoodie and I went on a 3-day trip and he let me keep it and it was really lovely so I'm glad I have a better person and I'm doing better now and to anyone who is feeling down π
Life sucks right now and that's okay because you do not have to constantly be OK life isn't always going to be okay sometimes it will sometimes it won't and right now is one of those lows and no matter what it will always be okay eventually whether it seems like it or not.No matter what happens everything will be okay things seem hard right now but it will get better and it doesn't seem like it but it will everything will find it's way to be okay and it may suck right now but it gets better i have experience and it gets better soon never give up because there's someone who will be the perfect person for you it doesn't seem like it today or maybe tomorrow but in the long run it will be okay just a little while longer and everything will be okay
@human209 aw im happy you came out of the toxic relationship and have a loving partner now who accepts you for you and makes you feel happy π the vacay sounds really fun, im really for you
this is such a beautiful message filled with hope and compassion π₯Ί thanks a lot ... I hope more people can read it too π you are amazing.

Gym is my number one anti depressant
Shopping is number 2
@SweetPapaya
Nice to hear going to the gym and shopping makes you feel better, is it the endorphins being released hehe?π
Any particular thing you like to shop more?

Best, yeah!!! I am running and shopping. Just gave my class a speak about retail therapy ππ

Thoughts that everything is temporary. Also changing a point of view helps.... Because not always everything is falling apart. ;)
@calmingsun111 this is something I needed to hear fr, thanks so much for sharing! It is true having an adaptive mindset is the best thing ever π

I'm always here to support and make you feel better, feel welcomed. :)) π


Sleep! In a comfy and safe bed, with clean sheets and essential oil on my feet, sound machine on, and knowing the housework is done.

housework done I so agree ! π
