... you need to know how much i love you

Woah that’s a tough one. I can say that i love you so much because i probably can’t explain how much i do. The so is like, a lot. The way you talk about things you love and the way you make cute typos and when you get really excited because of something and the way you are a beautiful, interesting, intelligent, passionate and dedicated person and you don’t even realise it. I love your hair and your eyes even though i’ve never actually seen them. I love your laugh even though i’ve never heard it. I love your scent even though i’ve never actually sensed it. I love your skin even though i’ve never touched it. I love every cell in your body and every feeling. I love that you continue to grow as a person in your selflessness. I love how you support the people you care about. I love and appreciate your existance. I hope you do too. I think that the people who get to spend time with you are lucky. If i got the chance too meet you i would probably just stare at you and wow God made a person so dear to me and i feel so so so privileged to have the chance to talk to you and to spend time with you. Love yourselfffff. Do you love yourself? Decide “Is this the person you want to love? Is this the best you can be? Can you be stronger? Kinder? More Compassionate?” I do love how i love you so much that i’ve been sittng here wondering if i’ve missed something, if i’ve forgotten something very important. I probably have. Because every little thing i love about you is very important. I could not possibly explain how much i love you, i should know every language in the world and more to find the suitable words and still would be missing something. I do, i love you, trust me i love you, i love u. 💖

Por si me lees...

Hace mucho que no hablamos y eso me mata, me mata porque me importas, porque creo que no te das cuenta de lo mucho que te quiero, porque ahora ya soy un contacto más en tu lista, porque te necesito, aqui, a mi lado, y estas allá, tan lejos, separada de mi por tantos kilometros de por medio, me mata porque te extraño y porque no sabes lo que daría por que estuvieras a mi lado...

Why "doing something relaxing” does not help your anxiety

A lot of the time when people give advice intended to relieve anxiety, they suggest doing “relaxing” things like drawing, painting, knitting, taking a bubble bath, coloring in one of those zen coloring books, or watching glitter settle to the bottom of a jar.

This advice is always well-intentioned, and I’m not here to diss people who either give it or who benefit from it. But it has never, ever done shit for me, and this is because it goes about resolving anxiety in the completely wrong way.

THE WORST THING YOU CAN DO when suffering from anxiety is to do a “relaxing” thing that just enables your mind to dwell and obsess more on the thing that’s bothering you. You need to ESCAPE from the dwelling and the obsession in order to experience relief.

You can drive to a quiet farm, drive to the beach, drive to a park, or anywhere else, but as someone who has tried it all many, many times, trust me–it’s a waste of gas. You will just end up still sad and stressed, only with sand on your butt. You can’t physically escape your sadness. Your sadness is inside of you. To escape, you need to give your brain something to play with for a while until you can approach the issue with a healthier frame of mind.

People who have anxiety do not need more time to contemplate, because we will use it to contemplate how much we suck.

In fact, you could say that’s what anxiety is–hyper-contemplating. When we let our minds run free, they run straight into the thorn bushes. Our minds are already running, and they need to be controlled. They need to be given something to do, or they’ll destroy everything, just like an overactive husky dog ripping up all the furniture.

Therefore, I present to you:

THINGS YOU SHOULD NOT DO WHEN ANXIOUS

–Go on a walk

–Watch a sunset, watch fish in an aquarium, watch glitter, etc.

–Go anywhere where the main activity is sitting and watching

–Draw, color, do anything that occupies the hands and not the mind

–Do yoga, jog, go fishing, or anything that lets you mentally drift

–Do literally ANYTHING that gives you great amounts of mental space to obsess and dwell on things.

THINGS YOU SHOULD DO WHEN ANXIOUS:

–Do a crossword puzzle, Sudoku, or any other mind teaser game. Crosswords are the best.

–Write something. It doesn’t have to be a masterpiece. Write the Top 10 Best Restaurants in My City. Rank celebrities according to Best Smile. Write some dumb Legolas fanfiction and rip it up when you’re done. It’s not for publication, it’s a relief exercise that only you will see.

–Read something, watch TV, or watch a movie–as long as it’s engrossing. Don’t watch anything which you can run as background noise (like, off the top of my head, Say Yes to The Dress.) As weird as it seems, American Horror Story actually helps me a lot, because it sucks me in.

–Masturbate. Yes, I’m serious. Your mind has to concentrate on the mini-movie it’s running. It can’t run Sexy Titillating Things and All The Things That are Bothering Me at the same time. (…I hope. If it can, then…ignore this one.)

–Do math problems—literally, google “algebra problems worksheet” and solve them. If you haven’t done math since 7th grade this will really help you. I don’t mean with math, I mean with the anxiety.

–Play a game or a sport with someone that requires great mental concentration. Working with 5 people to get a ball over a net is a challenge which will require your brain to turn off the Sadness Channel.

–Play a video game, as long as it’s not something like candy crush or Tetris that’s mindless.

THINGS YOU SHOULD DO DURING PANIC ATTACKS ESPECIALLY:

–List the capitals of all the U.S. states

–List the capitals of all the European countries

–List all the shapes you can see. Or all the colors.

–List all the blonde celebrities you can think of.

–Pull up a random block of text and count all the As in it, or Es or whatever.

Now obviously, I am not a doctor. I am just an anxious person who has tried almost everything to help myself. I’ve finally realized that the stuff people recommend never works because this is a disorder that thrives on free time and free mental space. When I do the stuff I listed above, I can breathe again. And I hope it helps someone here too.

(Now this shouldn’t have to be said but if the “do nots” work for you then by all means do them. They’ve just never worked for me.)

This is good advice for anxious peeps and peeps with anxious friends. Seems obvious now but I hadn’t thought about it this way before.

Although there are different forms of anxiety, and calming environments do help some cases, and I wouldn’t recommend completely abandoning the idea to at least try therapeutic activities to help anxiety. However, I do agree with OP that therapeutic relaxation techniques most likely will not help, and in fact, make it worse for people suffering from anxiety caused by racing thoughts. If you’re having racing thoughts you need to distract yourself. Get your hands on an activity that requires all your undivided attention to ensure your thoughts don’t wander, potentially putting you at risk for a panic attack. Stay strong my amigos

Despite it apparently being a fairly popular reference, I had never heard the phrase “Turtles All the Way Down” and was immediately intrigued by this as the title of John’s new book.

Apparently it is thought to have originated from Hinduism and references infinite regress and the phenomena of beginnings and endings. Definitely an interesting concept that will certainly allow for metaphorical resonance in the story.

The fence around my house keeps me safe. I didn’t build it. It grew on its own. I take care of it, and it protects me. I wonder what would get through if it wasn’t there. I wonder if I would be worried about the footsteps behind me or the music from nowhere. I wonder if I would still be as alone as I say I am.

Do you guys ever think about how like…Sherlock and John didn’t speak to each other for a month after John and Mary’s wedding? And how if John had not went to go find his neighbor’s son and stumbled upon Sherlock…then they most likely would not have spoken for even longer…?

And how Sherlock was acting within that month that they hadn’t spoke: He rid of John’s chair in the living room so he could “see the kitchen”, he is “dating” Janine, he is doing drugs (supposedly just for the case), and he is moving things around in 221B (ex. the coffee). It’s almost like…he is trying to get over an ex? As if he has an ex that he still cared about and he needed to make a change and start fresh. As if he needed time away otherwise he felt like he would never get over said ex. Do you see where I am going with this…

A real life fandom school. All fanboys and fangirls are welcome, no matter their age. Classes are on ships, fan fiction writing, editing and more. Phones and laptops aren’t just allowed, they’re required. At lunch you’ll sit with your fandom. For your final project, you need to make fictional characters real.. Reblog if you’d like this.
