Welcome to Litsy!

#MentalHealthMonday

1. Just okay, still stuffy & wheezy so not as much sleep as I wanted to get but I have the next few days (mostly) off which makes me happy.

2. “You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.” — Buddha
I find it is very easy to forget this sometimes.🪷🍵 I actively try to be kind & loving to myself🩶

1. I am feeling ok… it is almost spring break, so I have some light at the end of this tunnel
2. You can‘t fill others cups if your cup is empty!

1. I haven‘t recently lost a friend or family member, but my response to what‘s happening in this country now is a kind of grief. Which is a complicated set of emotions…
2. Last year I attended a grief seminar. I wasn‘t experiencing traditional grief at that time either, but I was “mourning” the loss of what I had thought was a close friendship. During the seminar I received a valuable insight:

YOUR FEELINGS ARE YOUR FEELINGS

#MentalHealthMonday check in

1. I‘m tired & disappointed I didn‘t sleep well. But I‘ll be OK. I have to remind myself it‘s not a moral failing to be tired.
2. I used to think feeling sad for ANY reason meant I was mentally unwell. I now know mental health (for me) isn‘t about feeling happy vs. feeling sad. It‘s about emotional regulation. Processing & expressing my feelings in healthy ways rather than ignoring them or trying to erase them. ⬇️

#MentalHealthMonday a day late !
1.every day is crazy day.I have much to do but the pain & cruelty coming down in this political scene is toxic.
2.music is always a great idea!
3. I was pretty edgy in my choices as a young adult, I find myself in this crazy time gravitating to the pop/rock of my childhood for comfort!😁I am diehard NPR usually, but can‘t take the ridiculous crap all day long.

A day late with this, oh well.
1. Rough. The world and hormones are doing a number on me. Took 2 mental health days from work.
2. Absolutely! I can shut off my brain.
3. 90s grunge and riot grrl music lately. The louder and angrier the better.

#mentalhealthmonday a day late. @Kerrbearlib
1- physically worn out, can‘t kick the secondary sinus infection. Mentally worn out 😂 I‘m a fed so alternating between doom scrolling and burying my head in a book. We should be “safe” in the judiciary but they keep trying, plus many of my federal family are affected.
2-yes
3- hard rock

1. Stressed out. There‘s a leak in my shower coming from my shower bench. My mom has a leak in her shower and the water heater needs to be fixed because it‘s banging around up in the ceiling.
2. Yes. All I listened to last night was music. I actually listened to a song last night where the guy was screaming more than singing.
3. I like Linkin Park and heavy metal music. It makes me feel like I‘m not alone.

1. Goodish
2. Yes!
3. Depends on the issue. I make Spotify playlists based on my moods. Lately I've been switching between " My Villian Era" and "Angry Metal".
