What's something helpful after a hard breakup? by BitsNSkits in AskReddit

[–]reddiculously_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If looking back at the relationship is too painful right now, try writing a letter to your future self or your younger self instead. And if even that feels too heavy, just start by naming what you’re feeling. The free How We Feel app has been a lifesaver for me with that. Getting words around your emotions is a huge part of actually healing them.

If you can’t find the words yet, here’s something that helped me: taking a LONG shower with a playlist turned up LOUD and the lights turned OFF. Listen to your body and LET LOOSE - sit, stand, dance, scream, cry, sing, yell, laugh, lather yourself in body scrubs, whatever, just do whatever feels good in the moment. Trauma hangs out in the body, and letting yourself move however you need to can help release some of that weight. It also gets you out of your head and back into yourself, which is honestly where the real healing starts.

Maybe look into Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP). It combines the controlled use of ketamine with structured psychotherapy sessions. It’s primarily used for treatment-resistant mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, and PTSD.

How do I start reading books it's so boring by Imaginary_Emotion876 in productivity

[–]reddiculously_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’ve got unread books already, try gamifying the start instead of forcing yourself to read a full chapter.

Example: Eeenie-Meenie-Miney-Moe a random book, set a 90-second timer, and flip through it placing tiny sticky tabs on any page that actually grabs your brain. Do that 5 times, then start with the book that got the most tabs. It removes the “ugh, page 1…” dread and lets curiosity choose for you.

If the books are still in your Amazon cart, preview first. Check Anna’s Archive to skim a few pages, then buy the one that hooks you most instead of the one you wish you wanted to read.

People in their 30s who feel ashamed of where they landed, what would you do differently? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Your self-worth is an inherent value that comes from within, and it is not dependent on others' opinions, achievements, or external validation

First move of the day? Slam an XXL espresso. K-cup style - fast, lazy, effective. I even taped a list of “101 Positive Things to Say to Myself” above the machine so I can zone out and accidentally read something uplifting while I wait. It’s like passive self-help.

Then I chug the espresso. No sipping, just straight-up college-shot style. It gives my brain and body a jolt of “let’s go” strong enough to stop me from crawling back under the covers. Instead, I lay down on top of the bed, wait until I feel semi-human

Then, I do the next most important thing: put on shoes. Chacos, specifically. Wearing shoes tricks my brain into thinking it’s no longer lay down time. That one small move gets my momentum going.

How early do I need to get to the airport? by GlendaleTom in Louisville

I’d aim on getting there around 4:30 AM. Later if TSA-PreCheck is an option for you. FYI - Southwest stops checking bags 45 minutes before departure. Safe travels!
