1. Find your values. - what I did with this was create a little bubble of all the things I valued then eventually narrowed them down to three or four so that they are in the fore front of my brain. 2. Practice saying no. - NO. Just kidding I don't even know where to start with this one. haha getting there 3. Become aware of your need to please. - my psychiatrist has been very keen to stop me in my tracks the second I try doing this and is something I'm definitely working on by just speaking my mind in love. 4. Work towards accepting yourself. (full time job fyi) - so with the beginning stages of bi polar, I can handle almost nothing haha. I used to do a million things at once, now I can take baths, put on makeup, clean my house and look after myself. That's it. Cooking is hard, working is impossible at this moment, social situations can be difficult. So I'm learning to accept my new normal. 5.Get mindful - I'm starting to get into the habit of praying and thinking in the morning without doing much else. I put on music and just pray and think or do yoga or listen to a podcast or ted talk. It works like you wouldn't believe. 6. Learn how to be alone. - right now I can't be alone for two long otherwise it can be unsafe so I'm saving this one for another time. 7. Find yourself with therapy. - Oh my goodness the heavens have been opened! I had no idea how amazing it was until i started it. DO it. You'll love it. It's like pulling out a sliver. Difficult but necessary. |
