I haven't blogged in a while. Mostly due to feeling a little unbalanced. And feeling like I don't have anything to say.
But today is different.
I was talking to a friend about having a list of activities to do when distressed or bored. I was telling her about my list and I realized that I have a pretty big list!
Here it is:
Take a bath or shower, read, draw or do art, take a walk or exercise, play with pets, dress up, cook a meal, get take out, fiddle with something like a rock or stressball, pray, surf the internet, take pictures, draw how you feel, write a letter, go for a drive, buy something you've always wanted, spend time with a friend or family s long as they are positive influences, message a friend, create something, play with slime or clay, drink water or juice, focus on tasting different foods, use your five senses,go rock hunting or hiking, so something nice for someone else, journal, plan, watch a movie or tv, walk away from triggering experiences, play a game,call someone, hold a coin in your hand and notice how it feels, count to 100, color, go to library, and so on.
The list keeps growing.
It has taken me four years to make this list and to incorporate it into my daily life.
I hope this helps someone out there who needs ideas of what to do.
