drugs, medicine, people or anything else?

sex, drugs, alcohol, art, television and reading, basically in that order. not that id recommend a few as actual coping activities due to how destructive it gets but :/ yeah escapism is mostly what will help in the moment

long term: attempting socializing, therapy, finishing projects, exercise

- being good and giving
- expanding your comfort zone
- healthy meal & fruits
- stretching
- cuddling with partner
- journaling, emptying the mind on paper
- psychedelics for healing purposes

- following your passion and intuition

Hope these help :)

oh yknow what im gonna add the biggest one i forgot: being useful to someone i care about. acts of service are not just my love language but main purpose for existing at this point. if i can't help myself, helping others definitely distracts from the dumpster fire that is myself

medication
playing video games
painting
sing

it's hard to do these things but I try to do them.
