Sometimes I get so tired of how much effort it takes to be mentally ok.
It’s like a checklist, a prescription for happiness.
-
Exercise x times a week
-
Practice these breathing exercises
-
Be mindful of your own thoughts
-
Get enough good sleep
-
Eat these things
-
Make sure to schedule in time every week
to see friends and family
-
Talk to a stranger with a degree about
your feelings and issues for 50 min a week
There you go, recipe completed. Happiness in a bottle.
I am so tired of thinking of the people in my life as a ‘support network.’
I am so tired of hearing about ‘mindfulness.’
I miss just being happy, without thinking about it, without having to put
this much work into it.
