I feel good when I watch those old videos of Mr. Rogers. Seeing a person so real as he was, was just so good. One video that really struck me was when he talked about death and explained it to children. It was such a validating experience. He used the example of his pet dog which died when he was a child. He doesn't sugarcoat death for kids, and he just explains it in words that are simple - he wasn't being condescending. You probably know how adults in real life talk to kids like they're idiots who can't understand painful emotions, and have to dumb down their words... Mr Rogers wasn't like that. His videos made me feel at peace with myself. That I could really be loved, for who I am, and I didn't have to try so hard to be someone I am not to deserve love.

I feel happy hanging out with my brother at the end of the night where we watch the anime we’ve been watching and eat snacks together. I’m also happy going out with close friends and laughing and enjoying their company. I feel safe when I go to bed at night, I feel safe when I’m able to calm down and get my anxiety under control :)

I love love love immersing myself in concept albums, or just discovering music in general. I've been rediscovering things I used to listen to as a teen. Shit, EDM is still amazing as fuck.

I watch this olllld show from the 60's called family affair. It's literally the most light hearted, simple, basic show I've ever seen. It has a story line, but because it's from the 60's every plot is simple, not triggering, and resolves happily. It easily puts me to sleep in some of my worst times. When my husband had covid at the very start and everything was death and lockdowns, I was absolutely running myself raw. I wasn't eating or sleeping. I couldnt think straight and all I did was cry and feel like throwing up ut I had nothing to throw up. Even in that absolutely terrifying time, that show gave me some form of...comfort? I dont know. My mother suggested it to me and you can watch it for free on tubi. It may sound odd but I really reccomend it. It's like nothing else. Also I watch original early runs of mr. Roger's or Bob Ross.

i can totally to the not eating or sleeping and anxiety induced gagging and since I wasn’t eating the thoughts would get me so scared i would start gagging and it would just hurt my throat and stomach because i couldn’t throw up anything cause there was nothing in there. but also there is something comforting about older shows back in the day maybe it is the simple feeling to it but this sounds like a good suggestion! also i’m proud of your progress

tabletop rpgs, relaxing video game music, laughing with friends, listening to audiobooks with my sister, hugs, playing guitar with my friend, being cozy inside when it’s raining, holding my furbabies, waking up in the morning and seeing my parents and my sister, swimming in the ocean.

the sky definitely! the sunsets and clouds ugh it’s just so pretty and relaxing. my favorite youtubers dan and phil are very comforting to watch. seeing my girlfriend makes me so so happy. getting out of the house makes me happy, i really hate being home. and on a good day when i’m not super stressed out and can watch anime without being immensely triggered, anime gives me so much happiness and emotion and excitement :)

Writing and talking about the stories my brother and write together. They're where I can express my interests and feel grounded with the healthy input of my brother's imagination. Practicing my craft is one. I'm sorry if anyone is sensitive to the topic of witchcraft. But cleansing my space and lighting my candles for Artemis are so calming to me. Meditating and doing my own research on the craft and learning how to express myself through it is the best thing on a sunny day. And watching twitch stream and theory vidoes on my favorite franchises are an amazing distraction and time passer!

Happy New Year's Eve! I know this time of year might leave us feeling down. If anyone has anything they want to talk about, or if you'd like to vent/talk about something getting you down, or if you just want to chat, or anything, I'd love to listen! :) It can or doesn't have to do with the holidays. (And don't worry about being a downer on a holiday, I'd like to listen if you want to talk about anything that's bothering you) If you need something specific out of a conversation (i.e. you just want me to listen and don't want me to comment or give my opinions or thoughts), let me know and I'd be happy to oblige! And, of course, I'm no therapist. Just thought I'd give that disclaimer. Also, if I respond in a way that seems like the conversation would logically be over but you still want to talk, I'll still be ready to listen! Sometimes I don't have a bunch to comment, but I'll listen for as long as you want to talk! And here's a fire for a fireside chat if you want 🪑🔥🪑🛋 Love you guys!

I dont wanna be near knives, go to the kitchen or even get up. As im so scared that Im going to act on it. I know I dont want to but this anxiety and horrid feeling makes me feel like i do. I am petrified the anxiety is terrifying. I sat in the kitchen earlier while my brother was close and I was scared because it feels so real even typing this im starting to panic.
