I think I need tips.
It's 230 245, I get up at 5, but I've been awake for more than an hour because I keep breaking out into hives. After changing my clothes and checking the bed for bugs and realizing the randomness of the rash placement, I went to Dr Internet, and I think it's just stress.
I had a bad weekend, tomorrow (well, today) is gonna be rough, and the holidays are looking grim - the stress is going to keep coming. I need to handle it better, though, because adding rash-induced sleep deprivation isn't going to help.
I think I need to do a better job of taking care of myself. How are you taking care of yourself? Big things, small things, any things - what is working for you?
Exercise does wonders for mental health like the others pointed out, art is also a great release of stress.
No matter how shit I feel, if I can get myself in the zone playing music for example, it's like I'm transferred to a magical place away from reality for a bit, and when I come back I feel much better and refreshed.
