We talked stuff that works you up, how about things that you do to calm down? What techniques, activities, mantras, stims, etc. do you do to keep yourself comfortable and safe? Feel free to share what you’d like - and something kinda cool is that you might end up helping someone else down the line.
I think we only get little dribbles of it. I read a book on Focus a hundred years ago and it basically stated the second that you realize you’re in that space - is the second you lose it. Encroaching thoughts are a difficult one, but it’s suggested more practice makes it easier. Also just figuring out what is and isn’t worth it in life. And I guessssss letting things go. But eh. I’m not the greatest with that one. So stuff I can’t let go, I try to sink instead. Because I might just not be ready to drop whatever “it” is.
