Self care but not as cutesy

  • Be sure to drink some water. if you dont like the taste of it, drink a soda or add flavoring to the water. drink some OJ. AJ. Chocolate milk, or make some tea or coffee. 
  • Eat. at least something small. a granola bar or maybe a few grapes. a pb & J sandwich or eat some candy. 
  • please do not forget to brush your teeth or hair. if youre drained or cant put much effort do one or the other. 
  • when did you last take a shower? go take one. Too drained or mentally numb? get a washcloth and wipe your face and take a shower when you feel better. 
  • change clothes. i dont care if its from pjs to a new set of pjs. do it. 
  • bathroom. do you need to use it?
  • change your underwear. please do. it feels great believe me.
  • feel like crap and dont want to do much? do a quick 5 minute cleaning whether its ridding trash, or taking dishes up or quickly cleaning off your bed for you to lay back down and stare out the window.
  • play a game on your phone. that shit just helps sometimes.
  • feel groggy? open a window. too hot? place a fan near your feet. 
  • room stink cause its trashy? take out the trash. spray some febreeze or essential oil or a candle. 
  • do some laundry. 
  • dont wanna watch tv cause nothing good is on? put on some cartoons and use it as back ground noise. 
  • 5 minute stretches. 
  • read a book or a page or so. 
  • reorganize something small.
  • sit on your front or back porch if you can. 
  • lay in a sunny warm spot of your home. 
  • cry if you need to.
  • make up your bed. its worth it. 
  • dust something. 
  • get out of the chair or bed for a bit. 
  • give your eyes a rest from technology. 
  • play some music whatever your mood is.
  • take your damn meds. they will help you. its okay.

Little tips for when you feel bad and don’t know why.

-Ask yourself the last time you drank some water. Drink a few sips even if it wasn’t long ago. Coffee doesn’t count (neither does soda unless it’s the only option) 

-When was the last time you ate? Get a small snack if able.

-Are ANY of your clothes too tight or uncomfortable? This includes socks, headbands, hats, and shoes.

-Stretch! Pop those shoulders, arch that back, straighten those legs. It Helps.

-If you happen to stim, do it! Do whatever feels right!

-Look for sounds, smells, etc. That are bothering you.

-Get your headphones and put on whatever music makes you feel happy/good/energetic.

-Loosen your shoulders, take some deep breaths. Drop your head and loosely roll your head. Try to relax as many muscles as you can.

-Close your eyes for a second.

-Did you take your meds (if you have them)? Do you need to take a Tylenol, ibuprofen Etc.?

-Are there allergens in the vicinity, are there any allergy medications you need to take?

-Breath deep.

I am by no means a professional and I don’t know what could be causing it but I know that these are kind of helpful. I’m not you and you aren’t me so these might not work. If the feeling bad is medical attention worthy, these might not help.

However, I hope that this does help someone.

once you stop fantasizing about that ideal version of yourself and start working towards becoming that person by setting your alarm clock earlier and actually going to the gym and actually volunteering at places and actually eating healthier and not procrastinating and working just a little bit harder you’ll realize that it was so easy all along. becoming your ideal self will only ever exist in your mind until you make the decision to work towards becoming that person. get up!! get going!! it’s now or never!! there is no light at the end of the tunnel!! get that flashlight and pave your own path bitch bc no one else is going to do it for u!!
