♡ some days will feel heavy and hard to carry. that doesn’t mean you are failing, it simply means you’re human. it’s okay to feel those things and move through them. sending love, always ♡

⋆ get up girl ! how to get out of a depressive slump ౨ৎ˚⟡˖

backstory stuff hi guys!! the past few months have been absolutely hellish for me.. and, as some of you know, im currently on antidepressants and antipsychotics. And i suffer from depression, anxiety, and suspected BPAD and autism. so how do i stay sane??? i lowkey don't! i have to be extremely gentle with myself or i literally get triggered by everything. but here are some things i have been doing lately which have helped me feel much much better.

only for those who are on meds : please take them regularly lmao. taking meds that make you feel better is not shameful at all.

have goals : having goals gives you a direction. without goals, our minds seem to wander off a bit, opening closed doors, brooding over our terrible pasts, doomscrolling.. and what not. so have goals. tiny ones, if that's all you can do at the moment. it could be something like doing a 30 second plank everyday for 3 days. and then once you finish the task, celebrate it! listen to your favourite song and journal about it. or post about it. whatever makes you feel good.

start tracking your progress on tumblr : post cute tiny blogs about your day, what you did and what you can do tmrw to make it better!! if you have a tumblr blog, might as well use it to the fullest, ykwim?

be vulnerable and open up to people : please please please do not suffer alone. there are many people who care about you. if you feel like you have no one, im here! just send me a text. but yeah. please talk to someone.

resting without guilt : again, please don't beat yourself up for resting and taking things slowly. you don't have to hustle 24/7 or have a 16hr work day every single day. you are allowed to rest and take it easy. you're going through so much. it makes sense. don't feel bad.

i love you- thank you so much, this just made my day <3

no matter your age, you'll wish you started younger. But today's the youngest you'll ever be

you don't need a new plan, or a new vision board, or a new pinterest board or subliminal playlist, manifestation list, blah blah blah. i feel like we've lost the point; you need to take action in order to achieve your goals. simply creating a plan is not enough!

procrastination is not a time management issue, but rather an emotional regulation issue. and everytime you procrastinate, you just further strengthen the neurological pathways that make procrastination easier and easier. procrastination is, in a way, a defense mechanism.

so how do we break the cycle? by simply starting with whatever you have. yes, that is as simple as it gets. but starting, somehow, is the hardest step. and ykw? you are strong. stronger than procrastination. you can start. it's your brain, your body. you have control over it! don't let it control you! how to beat procrastination, a step by step guide : .☘︎ ݁˖ identify the trigger : what are you avoiding? why? what emotions does it make you feel? anxious? overwhelmed? fear of failure? name it and explore it. sometimes we are just scared of how a particular task will make us feel, so we just totally avoid it.

.☘︎ ݁˖ 5 minute rule : set a timer for 5 minutes. work on your desired task that you have been avoiding for just 5 minutes. just 5 minutes, not less not more. that builds momentum.

.☘︎ ݁˖ a shitty paragraph is better than nothing : suppose you have an essay due next week and you have been procrastinating. try the 5 minute rule and JUST START! write the shittiest paragraph ever, if you need to. you can always go back and improve it later! but you can't really do anything about a blank document... you get what im saying?

and that is how you beat procrastination :)
