problems

[JonW_Swan]

I have problems breaking free of my rigid thinking

I like to listen to music most of the day

Stressed when I try to read something

I am trying to get thru the day

I dont know any other way

Trying to change behavior is like trying to twist your arm

On a positive note I did take a shower

Im stuck in a rut

Go easy and don't do too much at once, pace yourself

Nice rest and/or nap

Then try again next task

What sort of music do you like?

Do it slowly, it is ok. You do not have to move at light speed. You took a shower. That is a good thing. Many people who suffer mental illness can not even do that on a daily basis. Because depression makes you not want to care for yourself. But you did. Now take one moment to tell you self you did it. Live for the small victories. I cleaned the bathroom yesterday and you better believe that was a victory for me. It is hard sometimes to do those things we need to do for ourselves when we are in that dark place. But do not sell yourself short for just doing one thing.
