Recovery Reminders - Tumblr Posts
recovery may seem scary but choosing to be stuck where you’re at now is far worse
How are you feeling today? Focus on that and listen to your body first, before you go and set yourself tasks to do, or feel guilty or punish yourself for not being well enough to do a task.
Some days you will wake up with lots of energy, a positive mood, and achieve many things! Celebrate that. But sometimes other days you will not feel okay, and only achieve a little, and that’s worth celebrating too because you listened to your body.
I’m not saying don’t try to push yourself. You might feel like a sad blob, but you should push yourself to do a small task to see if there is any mood improvement. And if not, that’s fine! Don’t beat yourself up over it. Please rest. But usually, more times than not, you will feel better after pushing yourself to do a SMALL task. (E.g. washing a few dishes, watering your plants, making the bed, cleaning a small area in your home, walking to the park and back, etc...)
You are here. I’m glad you’re here, and keep on trying your best out there. We’re in this together.
Life is worth living, no matter what. There will be difficult times, they’re unavoidable. But you will learn and grow through that pain and become an even stronger and more beautiful version of yourself. If you don’t believe me that’s too bad, because I’m right, and you’re awesome >:-)
