Things to do when your personal Miss Mager kicks in :S

Huhuuuuu Honeys *_*
Sorry for my long long absence again, but I still am not sure how to go on with my blog :S 
As you know on the one hand I wanna leave everything of the illness behind me, but on the other side my blog always has been kind of an emergency exit where I could write my thoughts down and get some great advice of you all :) which often helped me very much with coping with many negative thoughts, you know? ;)
So I am still trying to figure out what will be the best solution.......

But while I am doing this, I am still reflecting every day again and again of how I am able to distract myself from Miss Mager´s tricks and traps :S you know what I mean? ;) Like all the thoughts about feeling bad, guilty or uncomfortable :) Because feeling this way can be so so harmful and horrible to cope with ;)


So for this I started writing a "Glückstagebuch", a diary for all the happy moments which happen to me each daay ;) For this, every evening, I try to reflect which good and wonderful moments I experienced over the day ;) This also can be such simply things like the singing of the birds or seeing the sun come out of the clouds, but also receiving a compliment of a friend or having a nice talk to someone :) And if I feel bad about myself once and again I read through the pages of it and remember to myself what actually really matters in life... And this truly isn´t my illness :(

Another thing which always keeps me back on track again or helps me coping with everything is talking to friends or other people I really like :) having a nice conversation is something which can be so helpful and relieving :) it may distracts you from everything negative you deal with and also can lead to new positive experiences ;) maybe also a joint and shared activity can be a greeat idea :) 

Also something I usually do is simply: BREATHE :) like slowly and deep breathing in and then out :) best it would be to feel the fresh air :) this often helps me coping with the situation :) And by doing this, you also have to remind yourself again and again WHY you are doing this and what you are working forward and what your GOAL is :) 

Another thing you definitively should avoid and immediately should stop is: Comparing yourself to others :) this absolutely never ever works and only makes you feel bad about yourself as well :S And it is the most triggering thing at all, because you never compare right to other persons :( 

So I wish you a successful week now ;) Keep it up ;) xxx
