I know mental illness is a tough thing to deal with so I got a few ways to help you cope with it.

~~~

○Sit in the sun without anything to do, feel the heat of the rays hit your skin, realize that this sunlight has travelled a very long way to reach you.

○Walk around barefoot and try to feel as much of the ground under your feet as you can, notice every rock and blade of grass.

○Sit quietly for a while and notice the touch of breath in your nostrils, feel how the air gets cooler as you inhale and warmer as you exhale.

○Drive around aimlessly and blast some of your favourite songs, scream/sing along to them and feel the vibrations of your favourite lyrics as they change the air in your throat and around you, feel that the music is healing you from the inside out.

○Stay away from alcohol and drugs for a few days, try to be as aware and present in every moment, stop trying to numb and dull your senses.

○Eat a few meals without any distractions, notice every bite and taste every flavour that covers your tongue. Be grateful for it.

○Look up at the stars and the moon, understand how small we all are and how immense the universe is, realize what a miracle everything is, let your heart swell with amazement and admiration for life itself.
