👍

I soak my feet in a basin with moisturizing soap mixed in and watch a funny TV show. I also take the time to use a face scrub on my feet to scrub out the dead skin, feels amazing

Taking a nice long hot bath while listening to my favorite music or watching a good movie

Warm drink, cozy blanket, warm bath or shower, comforting tv show or movie, books/ magazines, massage, home spa treatments, comfort food

Hot tea, warm bath, face mask, favorite video game or tv show

Long bath, reading a nice book and meeting with a friend.

Getting my nails done. That's the only thing I do for only myself.

Going out to my favourite coffee place and reading a book there.

I try to go to a friends house and spend time with someone or I just ask my fiancé to be with me for a while

Doing my nails, prayer and music, painting, hot tea

Hey

Video games ❤️

Being with my dog, watching TV, playing video games

Taking a walk or just sitting in the sun ^^

Hot shower , cuddling with my pet rabbit . Gaming and most importantly some peace and quiet from my daily life .

Digital art, it's forgiving and not as expensive as using real materials. You can create whatever you want.

Playing Nintendo switch

Crocheting

Watching dramas, they are my safe space and escape from reality really

Taking walks with my dog Ember

Meditation, music, exercise

Taking a walk. It’s so soothing

music helps me a lot and when i’m having a panic attack I splash my face with cold water or get in a cold water shower

Video games and baths are my go to 🙌

Yoga, meditation, listening to meditation music, 🧘🏽‍♀️ A nice hot bubble bath with a glass of wine or champagne, Stargazing, long walks in the park are on the beach to view the sunset 🌇 ✨️

Taking a hot bubble bath and relax 💕

Being organized. I love it! Helps me feel calm and clean. Sooo relaxing!

A nice hot bath!

Reading

Mediate deep into being greatful . Prayer. Music. Hot Tea. Get on yoga mat for stretching. Get out for a full body massage as often as possible. Take a walk with a friend.

Video games music and just tuning everyone out

I recently started a gym membership. Having time in my day that I dedicate to me and being active helps set the tone for the rest of the day.

Spend time with my family or travels places

🙌I turn my brain off and walk my dy

Walk my dog

Love my hobbies! Video games and drawing

Swimming and just floating around my pool

Walking my dog and reading a new book

Yoga, exercise, painting, music, Netflix

Remind myself I am enough and go get pampered.

I actively do things to add to my hobbies, interests, and self improvement. I am not my illness, my personality is not made by my illness it is made by me. I dont use my illnesses as a crutch, only as inspiration to improve how ever feels right for me.

Cry. Just let it all go. It's so frustrating when people think thsy crying doesn't solve anything. I disagree somewhat, sure, it won't actually fix your problem but sometimes a good cry can solve internal turmoil to a degree. With that, I say that it does solve stuff

Warm/hot Bath! 🤗😊☺ It's the best! Locked in a bathroom where no on can bother you and all your problems disappear for 30-60 minutes. Or three hours. 😅

Lighy makeup. Not too much, just enough to see yourself in a new light. I like putting on a bit of eyeliner and pink eye shadow on my lower eyelid

I do my nails and any art I have the energy for and when I’m feeling hopeless I grab whatever crystal fits the mood turn off the lights and listen to chill music we only get one life and one body and we survive and try to thrive or the sadness and sickness can swallow us whole

I greatly lower my expectations for myself, and I celebrate the little wins I make throughout the day.

Coloring….. found out the super detailed ones are great for when you are angry! Guess the focus needed drains the anger.

A lack of independence does not mean a lack of purpose and meaning.

I'm not quite there yet.maybe in the future I will find something.

I'm not that great at keeping up on my self care, but the couple things I do have to do with my appearance. I've been wearing acrylic nails for about 2.5 years, I have one nail tech I'm very loyal to because he does beautiful artwork and we have great talks. I get a pedicure as well about every month or so, and I keep up on my hair, keeping it trimmed and colored to get rid of the greys I'm too young to show. I have a bit of a makeup addiction and I love doing my makeup as a form of self care and art. Honestly when I'm looking my best its hard to feel down in the dumps.

Treat yourself as you would treat others 💕

I will literally sit in a room alone and talk to myself in a mirror just having a therapy session expressing my thoughts/emotions and somehow that really really helps me to connect to my feelings and validate them/understand them better in the same way I would for a loved one

Music helps me 100%!

A warm cup of coffee in my favorite mug, giving myself permission to rest in bed in my comfy clothes, watching/taking pictures of sunlight playing in the shadows.

It used to my berserker hoodie + dark room + bed + something low stakes on my iPad. But lately that hasn’t been helping.

Jacking off

Going on walks (no matter how short), playing video games (sometimes with friends), making myself a hot drink. Or, on a really bad day, turning on the fairy lights in my room, closing the curtains, getting under my weighted blanket, and watching stuff on my laptop for hours. It doesn't have to be productive, I just need to feel okay.

Calling a friend or younger family member and just asking them to tell u about a mundane part of their day/ vent about something bothering them. It makes me feel like I did something nice for them, plus I try to get out of bed and walk around during it

Long hot shower a soft blanket when I get sensory overload my squishmellow for my regression and sleep for when I get overwhelmed

meditation or exercise

Music. Video games. Nature. Also training my brain to change my atmosphere and do self care. I'm trying to write more. I like cooking and cleaning sometimes too

Baking by myself Making sugar flowers Music playing in the kitchen Getting lost in the art and science of sugar

Blasting music (Lovejoy in particular), reading, and watching some comfort videos I've saved on YouTube :)

showering in cold water and crying. it feels like i’m in a movie as the water runs through my hair lol. also going to my porch and painting my nails and journaling with jhene aiko playing (i recommend w.a.y.s and trigger protection mantra)

Spas

Crying

Video games or listening to music

disney films help me when i'm panicky! winnie the pooh (2011) brings me sm comfort 💕💕

Hot baths with Netflix or painting my nails. It’s kinda lame but those small things make me feel so much better. Something so simple as taking a few minutes JUST for me make me feel so much better

Listening to music, losing myself in video games

When it's all too much I seek sensory deprivation. Helps

I enjoy doing my macrame to relax and destress. Crafts keep me centered.

I listen to Morbid podcast and color

Rap instrumentals helps me alot idk I guess it's something about music that keeps me calm

I garden, or cuddle my animals. Wrap myself in my weighted blanket, take cold showers, yoga...really depends on what kind of heartache I'm experiencing.

Going outside looking at the trees, drawing aliens ,dancing,singing, cold showers, and eating fave foods,💚💚😁

hugging myself ❤️

Crotchet and coloring and Christian music

Jiu Jitsu, late night walks, drawing, Bad Bunny🐰

Dark humor. Music. Friends. The little things like my favorite cookies or movies or outings. My dog ❤️

Music 🎶🎶

Hot epsom salt bath, walking, music and photography

eating solely whole foods during the week

Music

Reading, music and when in doubt watching anime

Sad music, it's weird but it helps me cope on most days.

Anime, woodworking, driving through the back roads, music and going for a nice windy road on my motorcycle.

Drinking tea🫖☕❤️

Sitting on my shower seat. Eyes closed water raining down on me taking all my troubles with it, down the drain.

yesss. I was a fine artist for years but now my hands shake due to meds so digital art with the undo function is a Godsend!

Dancing to pump up songs

daydreaming?

Art..I do a lot of odds and ends...junk Journaling, watercolor painting, sketches, doodles, arts & crafts. Music and art go together like milk and honey.

Reading my Bible and remembering the promises of God

I spend time with my cat

Spending time with our animals

Making a hot beverage to sip on and weighing myself down with blankets and stuffed animals ❤️

I cope by drawing sketches of my feelings, and sometimes listening to music, or better yet! Both!

Writing poetry

Chocolate

a long bubble bath with lots of snacks, aromatherapy, my favorite vaporwave/rock/pop music, dim lighting, and browsing fanart or watching youtube

I shower as many times as I need to.

Making a cup of tea or treating myself to the super fancy tea place with private rooms and delicious finger sandwiches!

Headphones time

Music and baking

Yoga, meditation, reading and napping, baking sweets, scent therapy/ lighting candles

Take a walk. Chill and listen to calm music. Play with my dogs.❤️

Skin care. Treat yourself to good quality shower items. Super smelly lotions that make your skin soft, hair products that make your hair soft, quality shaving products, creamy texture body butters. When you feel good on the exterior it truly helps with your interior and mental health.

Reality tv tbh. Also trying new recipes, or taking hot showers and singing along to my favorite songs. Ooo and if you have pets mostly like a dog or cat not like a fish (sorry fishes 😅) but go play with them. It’s honestly boosts my mood seeing them happily playing. They do the cutest funniest things 😄

I love to take baths and do a full skincare and haircare routine for self love!

Self care is important

Music happens to be my best pills

A warm bath or movies or music

Snuggle with my cat, emotional support animals really are such a huge help, especially when I'm having a but of an anxiety issue

Going for a topless drive in my Jeep with the music turned up

Singing in the shower, petting my rescue cat, doing my skincare routine

showering is always my go to. it’s physically and mentally cleansing.

I like to eat an orange in the shower and use the peel as like aromatherapy in the hot water. Sounds weird but it feels like a lil treat.

Ok i do this all the time and everyone else calls me wierd??? I also put the orange in the fridge first so its nice and crisp 😂

Yes, and no it to be honest.

cuddles with pets, cosy blankets, a hot cup of tea and listening to music :))

Just crying and letting it all out. It’s easier to do everything else when I don’t feel like a soda can about to burst.

Just dropped my son at the Rail Station to attend the university Now having tea with loads of medication
