I've had a really messed up week. I slept with best friend and though we are still friends I know the relationship is damaged. Then today (unrelated because I didn't tell him yet) I broke up with my bf. Sitting here at work with both of these events running through my mind. I just want to either drink till I lose the ability to think or just shut down and sleep til about August. Any tips on getting my mind off things?
(*hug*) Do you like to jog or run ? Some exercise could help work down stress hormones. Take deep breaths, calm down. Give yourself a treat, some hot chocolate.... Go out and have a pizza (no alcohol, just enjoying a good meal). Know that things will get better eventually. (*hug*)(*hug*)
Thanks for the suggestion. I tried to distract myself with work tonight it kept the emotions at bay until I got to my truck. Then I broke down
Sorry to hear that (*hug*) But sometimes it helps to let it all out... crying in a pillow, for example... or beating a pillow (don't hurt yourself)... I'd say just do afterwards some things you like, to keep mood up... and some exercise and fresh air might help, too...
A lot of times when I need to distract my self I go for a run, draw, write down my feelings ,usually in the form of a poem (I pretty much listen to music doing all of these things), sometimes I like to just listen to music but then my thoughts start to over flow my mind and it ends up not working, or sometimes I go outside at night and just look at or talk to the stars (I know it sounds weird) but it really helps me to get things out so yeah those are a couple of things that I like to do
