depression hacks masterpost
these are things that will help with mental illness that aren't 'go outside, drink water, and everything will be fine!!!1!!!11!1!11!' those are good fs but they don't work on their own. these will actually help in one way or another :)
hell yeah let's go
open your windows. the fresh air and sunlight will do you good and it takes like 5 seconds.
go buy some plants, there are like a gazillion that are next to impossible to kill. and don't come at me with 'ohhh I'll probably find a way hahaha" NO. the plants will be so helpful! they produce oxygen, bring nature indoors which psychologically improves your mental state, and they're just nice to look at! you can name them! sculpt and/or paint little pots for them!
STOP LISTENING TO SAD MUSIC. I cannot stress this enough. it just makes things worse. please stop. make a playlist of all your favorite stupid, happy, pump-up songs and listen to them all the time until they get annoying. then repeat!
acquire a gazillion stuffed animals. so much serotonin for such a small price
get a water bottle and put fun stickers on it, and designate that water bottle to be only for water. nothing else goes in it. that way you can drink out of it for kind of a long time before needing to wash it. keep it filled with water and actually drink out of it. drink as much water as you can, all the time.
chew gum! idk why but it works bro. especially watermelon.
hug people and ask people to hug you. hugs are so amazing it's like pure happiness but with the added perk of Deep Pressure. it can be from your friends, family, s/o, whoever.
make sure there's a lot of light in your room. not good to wallow in darkness. put up fairy lights, get fun lamps, light candles, keep your blinds open, etc.
dress like how you want to feel. be colorful, fun, and comfortable. don't wear hoodies, sweatpants and ratty old shoes, I know it's appealing but it's just going to keep you in that depressed state. I like to wear dresses, colorful jeans, graphic tees from 5-Below, combat boots, and lots of funky earrings. (seriously 5-Below is a lifesaver for literally anything!!!) you can get a lot of these things for super cheap - I got a 20 pack of fun earrings like duckies, mushrooms, mini water bottles, etc. for like $11, and a lot of my colorful jeans are like 6 bucks at the thrift store. whatever your style is or whatever you want it to be, work to make that happen. because getting dressed is one of the simplest things you'll do in a day, so why not make the most of it?
doodle. it's fun and simple, and it'll give your hands something to do other than pick at your skin if you do that kind of stuff (see below).
on a similar note, make art!!!!! it doesn't have to be good!!!!!! just make art all the time, as often as you can. write crappy fanfiction. make friendship bracelets. sculpt a funky lil cat. draw your comfort characters. art is so healing and it will do wonders for you. even just like run your hands through a giant bag of beads like I do :P
get fidgets and bring them everywhere with you. this is more of an anxiety/stimming thing for me but I pick at my fingers, lips, pimples, eyebrows, etc., and it hurts a lot and will probably leave scars. fidgets are just amazing. I'm partial to tangles and infinity cubes :) gum and chewelry are good for this as well (for when I bite my fingers/clothes or chew the skin off my lips)
if you find yourself with a whole day with nothing to do and you don't have the energy to get up and do anything, go to the park. bring a blanket, some snacks, and headphones, and just lay there and listen to music. sleep. watch youtube. literally anything you would normally do when you don't have energy, except it's outside in the sun and grass and nature around other people who are doing the same thing! 10/10
get a pet if you can. even just fish, but really a fluffy, snuggly animal is probably best such as a dog or cat. OH MY GOD THEY HELP SO MUCH. ANIMALS ARE MAGIC. I don't think I've ever been sad while holding or petting my grandma's dog. (our family doesn't have one right now lol)
spray perfume/body spray on you. faster and easier than deodorant and it usually smells better
if you're gonna scroll, scroll pinterest. honestly, it's probably best to get rid of things like tiktok and snapchat, but that's kinda unrealistic for most people so I get it <3 pinterest is probably gonna be better than other social media cause it's more creative?? if you know what I mean?? and usually it's reading things and not mindlessly watching videos
if you don't have the energy to do stuff with your hair, put it up in a bun! fast simple and easy. takes like 5 seconds, even for someone with super thick curly hair like me. (or cut it short! but most of us aren't brave enough to do that lol)
eat fruit. sweet and comforting, but healthy!! so much better for you than junk food, and honestly it tastes better most of the time too. I recommend strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, watermelon, and cantaloupe. easy to take with you on the go and sooooo good <333
play calming video games such as animal crossing, minecraft, stardew valley, cats with soup (if you're into mobile games), etc. puzzle games are good too! if you want something more combat-y, I would recommend the zelda games or forager. still chill and mellow but has more combat and story/lore
garden if you can. I know this kind of ties in with having plants in your room, but if you're able and you have the energy, keep a flower and/or vegetable garden. there's something so beautiful in putting your hands in the warm dirt, smelling your freshly-planted flowers, eating sun-infused vegetables that taste infinitely better than store-bought. it's so nice, but I know it's not for everyone so don't worry about it if you don't get around to it <3
sleep in the bus/car on the way to school if you're tired. not a perfect solution but better than falling asleep in class
inhale through your nose, not your mouth. it's better for your lungs and you'll get better air quality that way. it also helps calm you better than mouth breathing, and you can't exactly smell the fresh air through your mouth :P
read. sit down and read a book. carry one with you wherever you go. spend a weekend day in the library with a huge stack of books just reading. it's so calming and helps stimulate your brain. doesn't matter what you read as long as it's making you happy :)
surround yourself with color, not dark drab colors. hang up art and posters on your walls, get bright blankets and pillows, lay out a tiny lil carpet, make bead curtains and string them up on your curtain rod, set out little figurines/sculptures around your room. put color and life everywhere around you, and that will start to seep into your soul.
tea is always good. or if you don't like tea, hot water with lemon juice and honey. basically the same :)
if you ever just don't want to do something, like you just absolutely don't want to get up and do _ thing, think about future you. would they be like "bro thanks so much you really helped me out there" if you did the thing? if yes, then do it, no matter how impossible it seems. you'll thank yourself later.
a statement that is near and dear to my heart: if you feel like everyone hates you, sleep. if you feel like you hate everyone, eat. if you feel like you hate yourself, shower.
NO MORE SU!C!DE JOKES. ever. the end! replace "i'm literally gonna kms" jokes or anything along those lines with "i'm literally gonna flop to the floor" or "i'm literally gonna go ham bananas on this place" or whatever wild bullshit pops into your brain.
watch studio ghibli movies. the most amazing things to ever exist. I have never felt sad while watching a ghibli movie. they are basically the definition of peace.
take a bubble bath!!!!! :D
making your bed helps for some reason??? why, I have no idea. but it does bro
get excited about things. smile when you hear your favorite song. hug your amazon package when it comes in. count down the days until a holiday. laugh with joy when you have an amazing day. it makes things so much better.
an important addition: bring snacks everywhere
that's all for now, lmk if you have anything else to add!!! love you guys, I promise it gets better <3

I went to the Leeds Queer Market!
Some purchases I made and some new creators to follow. 
Tumblr media
I went along to the Leeds Playhouse this afternoon before we went to see Barbie later on, and I was super pleased to go along — they were up on one of the floors in the Playhouse where the kitchen is, with various tables set up selling arts and crafts, jewellery, prints, cacti, and so on.
The market is run by Quercus Craft, I think every month or so? And I just wanted to show off some of the things I picked up and link to the creators’ stores and social media!
---
Firstly, I picked up this gorgeous print from Matt David (they/them), who is a queer Scottish artist based out of London — a lot of their work grapples with queerness and sexuality, including safe sex and HIV awareness, but also layers of symbolism, how symbols are created and communicated, and there’s this big thematic trend of exploring the symbology around queer bodies, the ways in which they’re objectified through fellow queer gazes, to incredible effect. 
Tumblr media
I love this piece so much — Matt David has several pieces like this one where they create these layered cyanotype portraits whilst also scanning the condoms through, and because of the material of the condoms and the lubricant on them, they have this incredible shine effect on them. I adore this piece, Hey Daddy, because of the halo-like shimmer of the condom’s ring over the figure’s head, and I’m so, so excited to put this in a gold frame and hang it up in my new place once I’m moved in. 
As well as these figures using condoms, they also have some beautiful colour portraiture featuring different queer heroes — I especially love this piece of Marsha P. Johnson — and do other forms of portraiture and sketches!
They’re open for commissions, as I said, and they’re also the Art Editor for Snowflake Magazine. 
You can check out Matt David and purchase their work on:
Their website / / Instagram / / Etsy
---
I picked up a few pieces of jewellery from Abigaia (she/her), a (n English) northerner and queer witch who plays a lot with themes of nature and spirituality in her work — she’s got a big focus on using sustainable materials in her craftwork as well as in its packaging, which is so awesome to see, the values of the work itself extended to its packaging materials. 
Tumblr media
I was super excited about the variety of charms and pendants she had on show — I picked up a snake, a rainbow mushroom, and a serotonin symbol, but she had so many to choose from. On her website, you can buy a mystery charm for £4, or ask for a specific charm in the notes — she’s got a huge variety of nature-based and spiritual symbols, including different animals, traditional websites, flora and mushrooms, a few chemical structures, and different pagan religious symbols.
If you love tarot, she’s also got some gorgeous earring sets featuring different tarot cards! 
You can check out Abigaia and purchase her work on: 
The Abigaia website / / Instagram
---
From Nad (she/they), I only picked up a pair of pronoun stickers for my partners, but you should absolutely check out the broad array of their work!
Nadya Griendroheru is an Indonesian artist and illustrator who just creates some absolutely gorgeous examples of character design — they have a really awesome flow and use of colour in their work with exaggerated angles and features, bright yellows, oranges, reds, greens, with a real sense of movement and personality conveyed in each print and piece. 
Tumblr media
She had a bunch of different Breaking Bad characters with pronouns printed on them (except for the one of Hank, which says ACAB), just like this one, and I just thought they were hilarious.
You can check out and browse more of Nad’s artwork on: 
Their website / / Instagram
---
Tumblr media
PRALER is the Planet Repairs Action Learning Educational Revolution, which is a big initiative building and promoting resistance and organisational networks, especially to further empower communities and organisations in the Global South and to address and take apart miseducation elsewhere, especially in regards to dismantling white supremacist and imperialist systems and propaganda. 
You can check out more about PRALER on their website here: 
Melany was selling incense they make themselves, and also bags from Mochilas para sanar, a platform for selling mochilas by indigenous Colombian creators, Mama Zenchina and Haba Ulaca, with 80% of proceeds going to the creators and 20% going to Somos Semillas, an organisation dedicated to educating about and collating resources for the Abya Yala diaspora. 
The bags are handwoven from cactus fibres and you can see them on the Mochilas para sanar Instagram!
They’re also going to be at the Queer Carboot on Sheaf Street tomorrow (30 July 2023), so if you’re based in Leeds and you’re upset you missed the Queer Market, absolutely go along and seek them out!
---
Tumblr media
I don’t think that they have any of their earrings available for sale on their online store at the moment, but if you do see them selling in person anywhere, they do a variety of earrings like this one, as well as geckos and lizards, frogs, candies and sweets, and they’re very cute! They also had on the stall a range of badges and stickers, little ornaments, and so on. 
Build Your Jungle UK produce a lot of resources and guides to cultivating and looking after tropical plants at home, as well as creating some utterly gorgeous prints and stickers showing different varieties of plants and foliage, and also frogs!
The creators, Sofi (they/them) and Han (they/he) both have backgrounds in graphic design, so they collaborate on making these gorgeous illustrative posters and stickers of different plants you might cultivate in the home, and the pieces are just so vibrant and alive in their use of popping colour and really clean linework that makes every piece seem to pop right off the page. 
You can find more from Build Your Jungle UK, check out their educational resources, and buy prints and stickers on:

being chan biased and getting him on my FIRST EVER pc pull was so wild. I'll never be able to replicate that feeling ever again 😆 I'm planning to put the cds into transparent cases and decorate them with stickers and whatnot! I'm very excited <3 I have no clue what I'm going to do with all of the Other inserts/pcs just yet. I'm new to the Collecting scene lmao
OPENING UP ALBUMS IN STORE IS TERRIBLE!! you deserved to take lino home with you! how dare they leave him on the floor like that :0
ALSO THANK YOU FOR THE POSITIVE VIBES BABE!!! I'm genuinely so jazzed for their next album, whenever that is.
(ps can I be 🔮 anon?? I haven't been lurking around for very long but I have a feeling I might want to send you more asks! you're incredibly fun to talk to)
ISNT IT THE MOST EUPHORIC FEELING EVER the rush of serotonin you get when you pull your bias is actually insane like it needs to be STUDIED I FR AM HAPPY FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK
I love the idea with the cds!! Do send pics when you’re done (if you want to, no pressure!) I also never know what to do with the rest of my inclusions tbh, if you find out let me know 😭 AGREED I did target a favor ! Nobody abandons Lino on the target floor on my watch 😳😳
YESSS YOU CAN ABSOLUTELY BE 🔮 !! Adding you to the list! Welcome welcome I love you a lot 💓💓🫶🫶🫶

This whole haul was spurred on by the fact that I lifted the let's play pallet on my way home and was happy af until I opened it to find it was missing colors and the ones that were left were CRUSHED. I was so mad that I drove to a different store just to lift it again lol. Also the lady at claires must have got a vibe from me bc the second I picked up an item she ran over and gave me one of those stupid fabric baskets and I got too nervous to say no and I actually bought something bc I felt obligated to😭 like girl relax

What are some of your fav lil treats
It's a big treat but my professionally painted toenails still give me so much serotonin every time I see them.
Lil treats, I'm a big fan of Drinks. Bobba tea, fancy caramel latte, and recently I tried the Best lemonade at a local café, it had a hint of mint and not too much sugar. Delightful.
Also going to the dollar store (or a craft store, depending on budget) to get stuff like a lil notebook, cute stickers, a pretty pen... i barely journal but I like having nice stationery when I do.
And just taking a nap on the couch. My fav free little treat 🥰

This is gonna be such a weird question but if I buy a Bolingo Owl sticker could you put a funky lil bowtie on him in sharpie? It would add more serotonin
I wish I could! Sorry !! 😭😭 but I only use Redbubble which is an online marketplace for print on demand products so I literally just upload my files and they do the printing and shipping and literally everything 🤧 I have never seen my own merch djdbdj 😂 if one day I can afford to have my own store you can order and ask anything you want ! 😂💖💖💖

Sticker Poll Results
You guys definitely want physical stickers, which I love and respect. I, too, collect so many stickers. Ask me how many books of planner stickers I have. Actually, don't.
Here are some thoughts on digital stickers for your consideration, and if you want to go the physical route, I gotchu boo, I am working on it.
Pros to Digital Stickers/digital files for print your own:
No sticker anxiety - if you use them in a note taking app, you can use the same sticker over and over again, as well as move it and not have to deal with the anxiety of 'wrong placement' ever again.
PNGs are supported for multiple note taking apps and what have you - I just have to figure out how to do this, and I am actively researching this
If you download them yourself and print and cut them yourself, whether on a cricut/silhouette/plot cutter machine of your choice, or you do it by hand, you can print off as MANY AS YOU WANT. FOREVER. See the first point about no more sticker anxiety.
resize them. make them bigger or smaller. layer those bitches.
immediate access to the file, no shipping required. Instant gratification and serotonin, baby!
Less expensive because you are paying for it once. All you are paying for is my time. No extra supplies or overhead are added.
No limit to quantities. Everyone who wants them would get them.
Cons to Digital Stickers/digital files for print your own:
Not everyone has a digital note taking app, so I recognize this is a niche market
Not everyone has a printer or access to a printer. Or if they do, it's not a color printer.
Sticker paper can be expensive, especially if you're going for waterproof vinyl so it can be used outdoors or on items that get a lot of use, like laptops
It's time consuming to print your stickers, then line them up on a cutting mat and run them through the software to cut them, not to mention cutting by hand is tedious
there's a slight learning curve for using the digital stickers.
Pros to Physical Stickers:
They are physical stickers that come in the mail. Happy mail makes a happy heart!
There is something so fun in looking at a sticker sheet or handful of stickers and deciding which one is your favorite and that you will use first.
Appeases the sticker gremlin
Can be used as rewards for completing tasks! Fill up a sticker chart, a calendar, use it for tracking your meds/habits/whatever
Typically a cohesive theme on a sheet
Can make cute bundles!!
Cons to Physical Stickers:
They have to be shipped. Listen, we know our turnaround time isn't the fastest. I'm just sayin'.
Sticker anxiety is a thing.
May get damaged in transport (even though we would do our best that this doesn't happen, it happens)
Limited number of stickers.
More expensive. You would be paying me for my time designing them, printing them, cutting them, the sticker paper, the ink, and the shipping supplies, plus the learning curve for me to get them the correct size, scale, and print/cut correctly OR having to go through a 3rd party to have them made for me.
Less likely to go on sale
Limited quantities
That being said, I have no qualms or issues about making physical stickers. I like doing both, and will probably offer both, tbh. I will just focus on the physical ones first.
That all being said, you guys mentioned you wanted more themed stickers, so what are we thinking? Do we want them based off dnd classes? Do we want them based off of the store fragrance lines? Do we just want various dnd monsters/magic items/clicky clackies?
Help me out so I know what I should be spending time and energy on that you guys actually want!
