I wake up pray. Read something whether it's the Bible or something on my phone. Meditate on good thoughts along with breathing exercises. I feed my kids. Play with them for a little then take them to daycare. I have about 3 hours of free time before work and i usually do some push ups then shower. Play a little fort nite. Then head to work. Just try to keep your mind busy and stay around people you're comfortable around. Starting the day with positive thoughts and breathing is the best thing for me.

Meditate on good thoughts. Try breathing in for 4 secs hold it for 4 secs and, exhale for 6 secs.

Maybe make a schedule for yourself! Write it out, the times and everything. Make time for meals, snacks, fun time, working on something, maybe school. Just everything that includes taking care of yourself. Maybe even just finding time to think about things you want to do

I get up, brush my teeth, shower, exercise, eat breakfast, then finish getting dressed and ready for the day, it helps me to have a place to be... so I go out somewhere, either stay with my parents at work (I know not everyone does that ?), or I go to Barnes and noble, I make sure to eat in between because I can’t think clearly if I’m not eating enough. Find a good book. Me personally, I hate reading. But I’m kind of making myself do it because it does good for my mind be used but also just to enjoy a story that I don’t have to overthink.

You could go to the mall or a pet shop and look at some pets, go to a park and read, look up different careers or jobs or college majors... take a class on khan academy to improve in any subject that interests you? Look up community events, like theatre shows, karaoke nights.

Anxious about everything
Guys I need help. I feel so alone . Basically I have this compulsion where I feel the need to write everything but this stems from me being anxious about EVERYTHING. Like my mom came in my room and I was irritated and snapped, immediately regretted now I keep writing “don’t be mean to mom next time” but I keep thinking about it. Then I think about how I finally left my house today and all the surfaces I touched that could’ve been contaminated and now I’m writing “next time don’t touch this and this”. Then I think about all the things I need to be doing for this week and I’m writing “don’t forget to do this and this” even though I’ve written it 5 times already. This is what happens everyday btw. My brain always thinks about something I need to be doing and making me anxious that I’ll forget it which is why I write it down on my notes app. I’m sooo mentally exhausted I need help pls!! Anyone have any advice ? I used to think I need to stop the writing but really I need to stop the anxious thoughts coming into my head . People say I need to accept the thoughts and let it go but that’s too hard for me
