❀ quarantine tips for people who deal with mental illnesses ❀
- try to enjoy the sun as much as you can!! even if it’s to open your window to let some daylight and fresh air in!
- try to get dressed every morning, even if it’s to change from your pajamas to a hoodie and leggings. believe me, it does make a change
- make a list of activities that usually keep your mind busy
- being close to your pets helps a lot
- try to meditate everyday, it’s super beneficial
- i know it’s hard (specially because our bodies are way less tired) but try to go to sleep at the same hour everyday and keep a concise sleeping schedule
- don’t force yourself to be extra productive just because you are at home, let your mind and your body rest
- try to keep contact with your loved ones and talk to them regulary (keeping a list of people you want to text/call everyday also helps)
- trying sensorial hobbies help a lot during this time, specially if you suffer from dissociation or if you feel out of touch with reality lately. embroidery, playing an instrument, painting, gardening... you name it!
- writing a list every single day of things that happened that day that you are grateful for helps a LOT
- if you are too tired to exercice, yoga helps
- try to be kind to yourself. you deserve as much love as anyone else
note: my private messages are always open to whoever needs to talk or if you simply need a distraction. you are so loved and strong. you’ve got this ♡
