a thing that’s helped me lately is to just schedule a time daily to write out my thoughts. even the bad ones. i try not to judge my thoughts as good or bad, but just process them on paper. this has been good because it lets me process my emotions during a certain time of day so that they don’t explode out when i don’t want them to or chain me to my bed haha. and if you miss a day, no biggie ymmv since this is individualized advice from my therapist, but i thought maybe it was worth sharing:)

oh! another thing about it is that during the day, if i start to think about something distressing, i’ll try and redirect by reminding myself that i have a “time and a place for this”. that way i don’t get caught up in a self loathing spiral at work or with friends
