"Here are 6 ways to regulate yourself using neuropsychology:
If you are stressed, use the physiological sigh. Huberman lab talks about it, but it’s essentially two inhales and one long exhale, and you do that over and over again.
If you are anxious, go for a walk. It deactivates your amygdala.
If you are sad, acknowledge your feelings and then move your body. it release endorphins.
If you are impulsive, like angry. You can’t think straight. Look out the window and don’t look at anything. Just like dilate your gaze. It blunts your neuroadrenaline so you can think clearly.
If you have low motivation, this is interesting ~ focus on one spot on your screen for one minute. Ignore everything else. Pupilary convergence increases focus.
And finally, if you’re feeling insecure, low self-worth, write down your strengths. Logical thinking overrides your limbic system."

I dunno who needs to hear this today, but one of the most groundbreaking things I learned recently is that, because I have ADHD, a 'day off' doesn't necessarily mean doing nothing. Often, when I need a 'day off' it's not a day off from Doing that I need, it's a day off from Regulating. Sometimes a day off looks pretty much like a work day except that I don't stop myself bouncing between projects, getting 'distracted' working on a Shiny Thing, half-finishing something and then leaving the rest for later. It probably will mean being a bit weird to my housemate later today because I'm pretty sure I can feel myself losing the ability to verbalise, and I might just wander round the house and stare at things instead of interacting with him like a normal person.
And what's more, that hasn't changed now I'm on meds. Meds don't take away the fact that I've been working ten or eleven hour days for more than a month now, and while that's fine for a short while and with the support and resources I have, when I need a break, this is the kind of break I need.

I was rage.
All for but a moment. Like a storm that changed its course.
Just one moment, I was Lyssa,
A Daemon, mad
An uncomfortable fury.
And how the storm caused
Such devastation with all it chaos and pain.
And as fast as it crashed in
It was gone
Still like the sea as sun rises
But then comes the hurt and the confusion.
I'd forgotten my fury was still with me
For years she lay dormant and at peace
But something happened
From just protecting the girl
The locks slowly broke away
Then it was too late. The woman of fury was unleashed
Filled with rage and such anger
It was engulfed by darkness and the cold
Now I lie wounded
My soul bleeds
My mind screaming
there so many voices
but I can't hear what they cry
I'm so confused
My body hurts, and the fury has left me shaking.
I cry without a moments peace
Because she came back
Now I lay here another night
Just me my thoughts
Alone in the dark without peace to rest
Tomorrow I will go on
Moving like a ghost
Never seen, never heard.

I know there are a lot of people hoping that we get an Ed and Stede sex scene in Season 2, and while I’m all for it, all I really want is for them to take a nap together.
I don’t think either of these sad boys have been sleeping. Their circadian rhythms are jacked. Let them have their sleepy snuggles in their battle jackets.

rsd is absolutely insane because it will feel like someone is tearing apart the very core of my being, insulting everything i have done and will ever do, condemning me to death and simultaneously wishing i was never born, when actually they just didn’t like a song i showed them

An interesting little fun thing with team 7 is that you assume that Sakura's gonna, like, woobify and simplify Sasuke by putting him on a pedastal,cause her goal is centered around him and shes a 12 y/o fangirl so like of course her understanding of him is skewed cause she doesnt see him as a person, just an object of affection, right? She's can't get Sasuke, can't imprint on and/or traumabond with him like Naruto and Kakashi do. They don't see him with rose tinted glasses, because they've lived through their own Horrors and empathize with Sasuke's experience.
......right?
WRONG lmao!! They have too many ghosts!! Naruto's single-minded codependent ass won't get out of his own way long enough to see Sasuke for who he actually is, only able to empathize with the parts of his trauma Naruto relates to and not really capable of understanding him outside of the context of himself (because Sasuke is. His other half). And Kakashi is far too jaded to be fair to him!! He can't decide if Sasuke is gonna end up as a mini-him or a mini-Obito or maybe a mini-Itachi, but either way he ALSO is too traumatized to see Sasuke AS SASUKE.
meanehile SAKURA'S autistic ass may have dogshit empathy, but you know what she does have? A special interest in sasuke. Nothing better to do then give herself a degree in Uchihaisms. She can write character studies about him. she can read his soul. Whenever she says something about him she is right. Every fucking time! She is RIGHT!!!!
'sasuke would NOT compliment me this directly or explicitly express worry unprompted, especially if it gets in the way of his goals' correct.
'Sasuke shouldn't hide that curse on his neck its not healthy BUT if I tell anyone about it he'll never trust me again, which might be even more dangerous for him then the curse mark. Like he can probably handle the curse mark but no one else can stop him from ripping peoples arms off.' correct.
Speaking of! 'Sasuke would not hurt me even when he seems to be...possessed? whatever the only way to knock him out of it is to present myself as Alive and thus something to be protected rather then something to be avenged, because he gets really stuck in his own head about revenge' CORRECT
'hey so um. like. Sasuke's gonna leave Konoha. I'm not sure anything can stop him at this point and honestly I'm kinda starting to doubt anything should, so the only thing I could possibly do to help him at this point is ALSO defect.' CORRECT!!!!

now: jin ling has done nothing wrong everyone please be nice to him he’s just a kid and he misses his parents. he misses the parents he can’t remember and the life he couldn’t have. everyone just give him some space to breathe please. “this sword belonged to my father, i’m not putting it away”

different asker but i would like to add on to the last ask if thats okay? curious to know which characters you think would be the opposite, like who can't shut down no matter how hard they try? bonus for the characters who have to outsource their self regulation a little
Nekomaru is an emotionally healthy man and he lets it all out! Usually in the gym but sometimes you might catch a Very tight hug and/or some tears (mostly a problem with the touch-averse crew). He can't fully shut it down you'll Notice the mood even if he doesn't say anything.
Fuyuhiko is fine at shutting down more sensitive feelings but he needs like actual help with his anger issues. They go 0 to 100 real fast and he doesn't even think to temper himself before he's already said or done something unhelpful. If he's sad he won't act on it but you'll still notice, he's worse at pretending than he thinks he is
Ibuki doesn't see why she would ever even try. (Redirecting the emotion is different)
Mikan obviously is very bad at keeping level headed when it comes to sadness, anxiety, and at times anger (but the last one is the quiet kind, less noticeable but more scary)
