Comfort - What Works For You?

This is what keeps me at peace ... I have more, if it's okay to post more.

Wow, I can see why they provide comfort. There is another thread called Photos of Nature where you live. I'll post the link and it would be lovely to see more.

There are some really good ideas in this thread.

I like to go shopping. I don't have any money but I like to go shopping.
I think I like to walk around and look at things. It was the one time
my mother wasn't torturing me.

I watch a lot of tv sometimes I don't know if I like that.

Sleeping is a life saver at really bad times.

I love to listen to music. It really is good for me and it is only this year I have allowed my self to have that.

Reading used to be such an escape and a rejuvenation. But I don't do that so much anymore.

Being with my parrots used to be good. But I find it hard to connect with them.

Friends are good but I don't know where I stand with a lot of people at the moment.

I disassociate a lot these days.

There is such a disconnect between what I do and what I want to do.

What is soothing for me? I don't know.
 
My comfort needs and wants change.

Usually if I'm stressed:

Not baths :cautious: bathtub trauma here :sick:
Yeah, not my thing either.

I will want to eat something and go to my bedroom where I have it dark, less sensory distraction, and get on the our comfortable bed sometimes with or without the my dogs. Always with my blanket. I received a light-weight child sized comforter from a friend of mine, who's fallen off the grid a couple of Christmases ago and I am never without it in the house. Call me Lioness. :barefoot:
