Hugs through the web. Would crying be a release ? It is ok to to cry.(It took me a year of therapy .. trying not to cry.. to come to grips with the fact that it is ok to cry, I would cry when my boss would give me corrective criticism.. how unprofessional of me.) I am still a crier. I am encouraging you to cry. Sometimes crying can be a good release. Also a good cup of theobromine can help.. Lately I have been brewing ground cacao beans like coffee.. and I notice it helps me feel more positive.(Even the decaf does it) If you can't find it where you live(or on Amazon) maybe a good cup of hot chocolate will do. Or even a warm cup of green tea with honey. I have posted about mindfulness meditation.. I was talking to therapist about this the other day.. he said sometimes it is important to experience your depressed thoughts in this way they tend to go away more.. also part of mindfulness. Perhaps a 5 minute meditation would help. Focus on your breath and live in the present for a few minutes and as thoughts enter acknowledge them, let them fly away, and focus on the breath. Just for a few minutes try to live in the present.. and not the worries of the future or the regrets of the past.. feel the coldness of your breath as you inhale and the warmth of it as you exhale.

Go get a warm cup of something soothing. Give yourself a hug. Find something beautiful in nature.. (A bird flying or looking for food) Experience that for a little while and see if you feel better.

More Hugs!

I am up very early in the morning, telling me to be real with me, and let my realness be a healing, educational time to grow and mature. It pays to be honest and let the life's experiences show you how to go get more positive steps going on in your life. hurt? yeah, I am feeling the pain of my own shortcomings..and they are really what's causing my healing in my mental health. with the help of my counselor, of four weeks. Great lady, she is.
