How do you cheer up?

I was thinking about getting nails done.

A mani always makes me feel better, but I only do it maybe once a year or so. It really does help me feel better. Do you know why your ocd is spiking and why you are not feeling your happier self.?

What makes you laugh?

Hmmm. Funny videos. Goofing off with people :)

Which I did yesterday. I drove two hours to hang out with two people I hadn’t seen in a while. :D It was really nice! Very therapeutic

Do you know why your ocd is spiking and why you are not feeling your happier self.?

I do know. It’s the house I’m living in, long story short. Place where my abuse happened, place right across the street from the pedo’s house (he no longer lives there), and my mom became a hoarder and I’m afraid to touch the floor here.

That, and continuous rejection from people all of a sudden. Eventually that will bother me significantly less. Statistically, the amygdala is less active the older you get. So this is a “young person feeling worthless” problem, I think.

Yay!! I hope you were able to relax a little bit and had a few belly laughs. They do say "laughter is the best medicine".

Glad today has been a good day for you!!
Hugs! XO

DOGS! Recently lost both of mine. Now I find people with dogs. Walk my neighbors', puppy sit for a few hours, stop someone with one interact. I even call neighbors now & ask if their pup has an opening in his busy social schedule for a visit. Be surprised how happy owners are to have company for their dogs.

True!!!

I do have a doggo so I’ll try to remember to play with her if I end up that down again :D :D Thank you!

It was a low-pressure, relaxing birthday! I didn’t know that that’s what I wanted, but I’d say it was perfect :D
