DISCLAIMER: this isn't a substitute for therapy and/or medication. Sometimes therapy isn't accessible. Sometimes we have a bad week and need to recenter ourselves.

I think we can learn from each other and find methods we didn't even know about! What's helpful to another may be ineffective to another, and I think learning about an array of methods would be valuable.

What's been helpful for me:

  • Spending time in nature
  • Journaling (I would google journal prompts pertaining to my predicaments)
  • Guided meditations on Youtube
  • Free worksheets: https://www.therapistaid.com/therapy-worksheets (my therapist who specialized in CBT used some of these during our sessions, I'm glad they're free)
 

Do you want to...

  • Share music
  • Keep up to date with news in the music industry
  • Discover music
  • Find others with similar music taste
  • A bit of everything
  • Any reason I haven't mentioned

BONUS but optional:

  • What music streaming service do you use? (I use Spotify)
  • Favorite genres? (I like EDM)
 

Social media (goodreads/tiktok/reddit)? Colleagues? Friends? Browsing the library/bookstore? Asking for recommendations from staff at libraries/bookstores?

BONUS: if you can remember, how did you find books you really enjoyed?

I realized a lot of my favorite book recs came from reddit. I was a subscriber of r/books and picked up some really good books there. Piranesi by Susanna Clarke is an example.

Same here, I'm a software dev for a living and it resonated differently/pissed me off hearing about the API pricing changes and what happened with Apollo's developer
