what “feeling better” can look like after using a coping technique:

beng able to get up and walk around safely

thinking/talking more clearly and lessening of brain fog

a willingness to re-engage with a situation/emotion (even with some reluctance)

ability to do a task you did not want to/could not do before

being able to plan and problem solve (even if you still don’t know what to do)

improved concentration/focus

more understanding of a situation

calmer and slower thoughts (rather than scattered thoughts/rumination)

slower heartbeat and breathing

faster heartbeat, if doing exercise, and momentum that gives you a chance to do a task before you sit down again

being able to sleep easier

an ability to look at the big picture and not get lost in the details

feeling that you can “manage”

ability to control outbursts/destructive behaviour or pause before acting

managing to stop crying

I think people tend to assume their mood is what will improve after trying coping techniques, however, your mood is not the full extent of your mental health, and it doesn’t totally define whether or not a technique has helped you. When disorders cause symptoms like chronic emptiness and low mood, it’s worthwhile to pay attention to your body and your abilities to look for signs of improvement, which can then have an affect on your mood in the long term.

i need to somehow convince the others that not caring about what we wear or our appearance in any way isn't making us happy

#like. obviously we dont care about being ugly. we got over that once we lost all our hair #but i mean like wearing clothes that make us happy and show individuality.. wearing jewelry that we like #i got us some accessories a while ago but nobody else really cared to wear them since.. #well. im just going to keep leaving notes about it whenever i can #we got mens underwear for the first time yesterday and it made such a difference. we didnt think it mattered since its just underwear #but it does!!! it feels so much better!! #ahhhhhhhhh #going to write 10 notes and leave them everywhere #um. i dont have an emoji #⛓️ #that works ig

Guess who's back in need of help again. I'm linking context here to keep this post from being too long. Long story short, I've been saving up to buy a car so I can find better jobs, save up, and move somewhere that my abuser cannot access me.

Thanks to ppl's help with my Gofundme (this post also has pictures of my bills, an average paycheck for me, etc if you need to see) I was finally able to scrape a deal on a bit of a clunker. It runs but it's got some mechanical issues that need addressing. The check engine light is on, it needs an oil change, there's a sizeable crack in the windshield, the door locks are kinda dead, and the front grill is broken.

I have been pulling my hair out comparing quotes for liability only insurance and even the cheapest one I can find puts me over my budget right now. But I can't register and use the car without insurance so I'm stuck. I know literally everyone is in need and this situation is not as urgent as others' but please consider helping me weather these costs so I can make it through a home stretch. I've already got other job interviews lined up. I can't take another year with these people.
