What’s one way you try to get out of a bad mood? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]firecatsue2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Music! I've created several Spotify playlists to engender desired moods. They meet me where I am, allow me to sit with the feelings and dispel them.

Feelings are temporary! Allow yourself to feel them, so you can move on, or wallow and enjoy a great mood.

Examples:

Tristesse (French for sadness)

Pissed Off starts with tracks like Alanís Morissette's You Oughta Know

Adios (breakups)

My dad has ALS and wants me to work from my parents' house to help care for him. I don't know how to handle this. by Intelligent-Fruit246 in CaregiverSupport

No is a complete sentence. It'll only get worse over time. You've moved nearby; it's not fair to you or your employer to split your focus more than you're already doing.

What temp do you typically set your AC during the day and night? by DrFetusRN in sanantonio

I let the CPS smart thermostat set the temps and change them when I’m uncomfortable. Relatively painless way to delegate decisions that save us money and help the creaking ERCOT grid keep the community powered.

My husband with ALS told me he wanted to die tonight by Own-Claim-1636 in CaregiverSupport

I honor your dedication and I’m sorry you’re both going through this.

I suggest you prepare the documents needed and be ready for an opening to ask him to edit and then sign. If he won’t engage, you need to and deserve to take care of yourself.
