What do you need assistance with?
It’s okay to feel overwhelmed, life is crazy sometimes. You’re not being dramatic, your feelings are valid. Take a few minutes if you can & just breathe, take some time to ground yourself and be aware of your surroundings. There is a lot of things you can do to help yourself if you don’t have somebody there to do that for you.To relax you can :-Take a bath/shower-Do art like writing/drawing/coloring-Do grounding/breathing exercises-Drink some herbal tea-Rest and take a nap-Organize things-Take a break and spend some time outsideBottom line is, life is overwhelming. You might be in school, you might have a job, or even just the demanding expectations in everyday life can cause huge amounts of stress. Everyone needs a break every now and then. You’re doing great! I’m so proud of you💗
Sometimes it gets really hard to get out of bed, trust me I get that. You’re not lazy, you’re not a failure. You’re just going through a really hard time and it’s okay to work on that at your own pace. Though it may seem like you have nothing to live for and that life is pointless, I can assure you that people love you. You are important and your feelings are valid. You deserve love no matter what headspace you’re in. If you don’t have people to remind you of that when you need it, just know that I’m always here for each and every one of you. Even I struggle with this personally, but it’s important to take care of ourselves.🌀Get out of bed: I know it’s hard, but once you’re up it’s so much easier to do the things you need to do that day. I believe in you & I’m rooting for you!🌀Take care of yourself: Take a shower/bath, wash your face, brush your teeth. Make sure you’re eating well, drinking enough and getting a little sunlight too. Once you put in that effort to get clean, it’s going to be a lot easier to do things because you don't feel icky and smelly. It’s just one less thing to worry about.🌀Take care of your loved ones: I know it can be really difficult sometimes, especially if you have family issues, but surrounding yourself with the people you love can make you feel so much better. Even if it’s a pet, take that step, you got this!🌀Take your meds: I know if you think they’re not working it might feel like there’s no point, but not taking prescribed medicine will make you feel worse than if you actually do. If something is wrong with them, then please consult a doctor who will tell you what to do. Write it on your mirror, set an alarm, have a friend or family member remind you, make it an important thing that you do everyday and soon it will become a habit.🌀Seek help: Even though sometimes it’s exhausting, talking about your problems is very helpful. If you don’t have a therapist that’s okay, maybe talk with a trusted friend or family member. If you don't have anyone to talk to, writing helps a lot & it’s really great to use to look at your progress! Giving yourself the resources to get better and heal makes a difference & it makes everything so much easier. It takes time, but it truly does help.Overall, all of these things are hard, I get that. If you’re not there yet to start doing all of these at one time, that’s okay! One thing at a time, one day at a time, you can do this! Just try your best and know that it's okay if one day you're unable to do anything as you're 100% in survival mode. Just staying alive is an accomplishment in itself.💗
Know that you are going to be okay and no you’re not going crazy. It may feel like you could pass out sometimes, but professionals have assured that that is an irrational fear that will not happen. Recognize your triggers. What caused you to be anxious, why are you anxious in the first place? Do you even know why you’re anxious? Those are questions you should ask yourself when you want to keep everything from spiraling out of control. If you feel your anxiety getting worse, there are things you can do to help manage it a bit.🌀Box breathing : Try breathing in for 4 counts, holding for 4 counts, breathing out for 4 counts and then holding for 4 counts for 5 minutes in total (follow the gif I put if needed). By evening out your breath, you’ll slow your heart rate which should help calm you down. The 4-7-8 technique is also known to help anxiety (inhale for 4, hold for 7, exhale for 8).🌀The 5-4-3-2-1 method : Name around you 5 things you can see, 4 things you can touch, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell and 1 thing you can taste.Obviously these are just basic things & there are much more coping skills out there. Everyone is different, some might work and some might not and that’s okay! I assure you that you are not helpless and that at least one technique will be able to help you.💗
This happens to me a lot too, like a burnout. You can feel really apathetic and it’s really easy to stay in a state of numbness. These types of feelings can affect your ability to keep a job, maintain relationships and enjoy life. Everybody experiences this from time to time, situational apathy is completely normal.🌀Get out of bed. You may feel like staying in bed all day, but the key to getting your motivation back starts with simply putting your feet on the ground in the morning and getting out of bed. Try and get dressed for the day. If you stay in your pajamas all day, it's easy for your brain to let the rest of you off the hook too.🌀Track your success, success and confidence can initiate a positive cycle. At the end of each day, find a journal and write down at least three ways that you were successful that day. It can be as simple as drinking a glass of water. It helps more than you think!🌀Rely on your support system, even if you’re having trouble connecting, reach out to the people who love you. They may be able to help you connect and you might find relief in telling them what you’re going through.Remember that this is something that happens to most people. I understand it’s hard to believe, but you are not alone.💗
