Here’s a Christmas sketch I never posted. I experimented with a traditional sketch but a digital colour. Not sure if I like how it turned out? 🤷♀️ . . . #christmas #newyear #cleanup #wreath #sketch #procreate #digital #digitalart #fashion #plaid https://www.instagram.com/p/CJkPJ3VDjt3/?igshid=222ko2o7jtti
I was just about to spiral into a bad panic attack, and my boyfriend goes "Stick an ice cube in your mouth." I'm not really sure where he got the idea, and I kinda laughed at it because I didn't see how it would help, but he was insistent. So I did it.
And now I'm on my second cube, because it worked.
He explained his reasoning to me when he got home.
1. I would initially think "what the fuck" and be distracted from the anxiety. (Correct.)
2. The cold of the ice would shock my system, bringing me back to the physical world and reality, drawing my focus to the cold in my mouth, and keep my brain away from thinking "I'm panicking, I must be dying." (Correct.)
3. He assumed I hadn't drank much water today and wanted to keep me hydrated. (Triple correct.)
It also forced your mouth to make saliva!
When you go into fight or flight mode, non-crucial body functions stop working so you have more energy to do what you need to do to survive (oooor to spiral into a panic attack). By forcing yourself to make saliva it helps calm you down because since fight or flight is an all or nothing response, they can’t happen at the same time.
Learned that from my old therapist, who would use it with veterans with ptsd
I’m doing this right now and its working????
THIS! Do this!
Anxiety is an emotional thing BUT there are feedback systems in place in your body that pay attention to physical states as well, which is why you then experience raised heart rate and so on when anxious. Eliminate or confuse one feedback system? Reduce anxiety.
Go be free!
biting into a lemon also works
Btw, this is part of Dialectic Behavioural Therapy, DBT for short, which was invented by a woman with borderline. It doesn't only work with panic attacks but also self harm, negative thought spirals, and sometimes even intrusive flashbacks.
Eating very spicey stuff works as well. I used to keep little packets of wasabi in my jacket, and that saved me more times I can count.

This high school drumline’s incredible performance included only drumstick
Impressive
My thoughts as I watched:
“Heh, that’s cute.”
“Okay, that’s cool.”
“Dude.”
*reblogs*
Also shout out to their ugly Christmas sweaters
As former drumline… dude… that was impressive…
Being a looong lapdogdragon only means you can cover more laps ;)
(coincidentally also that you have enough hair to give almost Rapunzel level of hairdresser fun to average 5 year old)

I gave up my struggle with perfection a long time ago. That is a concept I don’t find very interesting anymore. Everyone just wants to look good in the photographs. I think that is where some of the pressure comes from. Be happy. Be yourself, the day is about a lot more.

And here’s one of my recent works which I had a blast to paint! I didn’t paint jellyfishes and fish for many years so I kinda missed it and decided to paint something inspired by that. This was done for DeviantART and on their CoreLounge site here you can find full-res image, wips, PSD and a timelapse video of how I drew this :D On Thursday, November 17th at 10:00 AM Pacific will also be a premiere on DeviantART’s YouTube showing a longer timelapse of this painting and I’ll also answer to questions so everyone is welcome :D
