When Shit's Got You Down, You Got This!

You may have experienced a rough couple of days. Seasonal depression, day to day bullshit, or maybe a full on life change, can get you in the mood to crawl into a hole never to be seen again.

We all go through these feelings. It's your brain and body's way to tell you to take a rest. Don't quit the world and become a hermit, you got this.

What makes me feel better then I go through these bouts of defeated feelings is to take the time for me and do a few things for myself to recharge.

Listen to your Body

Listen to you body and understand what it's telling you. Do you need to take a nap? Eat a whole damn pizza? How about stay home with your Snuggy and tea? You know deep down what your body needs to feel better. Do it. Don't ignore your skin bag holding your meat. If you don't do what your body is telling you it needs, no one else will. You only get one body. Listen to it.

Make 'No' your buddy

Sometimes, you just gotta' say, "No". You might be spreading yourself too thin or doing things that you may not want to do. That effects how you go about your day, all stressed out because you feel the need to do everything. Just say, "No" and mean it. Does that mean you may disappoint someone, sure. But, will you feel better not going to your barely known cousin's birthday party on the only day you have off? Hell yeah!

You do You, Boo

Take some time to do something for yourself. You don't have to do anything crazy expensive. Take yourself on a 'date', so to speak. Do something that only you want to do. Maybe that includes going to a movie rolling solo or taking a long, warm bath. Whatever you want to do, you do you, Boo!

I hope these reminders help you get through your funk. It's hard to remind yourself that you have to take care of yourself. It's very easy to keep pushing forward because you are a boss ass bitch and you can do it all. You are and can, but even boss ass bitches need to take a time out to recharge.
