if you're stuck on something it's nice to get a big metaphorical smack across the noggin by a clear-eyed confidante, whether it's a homie or a family member or a therapist that can give you a fresh and radical perspective and stop you from rutting around in the circle of repetitive brooding. If you've been trying to work something out or been engaging in some negative self talk, ask someone to listen for a few mins and then tell you that you're being ridiculous. everyone needs it sometimes.

you need to talk about it!!!! and not internalize it!!! talk to your best friend, a third party, your coworker, your mom, a stranger on the internet, a therapist!.... i'm begging you to just talk to someone if you're going through something, no matter how big or small or unimportant it may seem, please don't internalize your feelings. life is so much better and easier when you communicate <3

with others, to pets, and you know what! even talking to yourself from time to time... sometimes you just need to verbalize the thoughts that have overstayed their welcome in your brain to actually be able to process them better. make them a tangible thing instead of this ephemeral wisp that keeps bouncing around restlessly inside your cranium.

It bums me out whenever someone's trying to say something but cuts themselves off or says "nevermind" because they assume that they're wasting time. Think it through, or let it come back to you. 3 years ago, I started saying, "Talk through the thought" with my friend, and I think it's made me more patient, and I've ended up hearing/saying some cool shit (or at least some funny shit) that I would've probably missed out on otherwise.

a study issued last month found that dancing is the most effective way of treating and mitigating depression. Walking, therapy, and yoga also outpaced SSRIs. and if you're saying 'oh this was probably funded by Big Dance', there's no evidence of that and if you're saying 'that's just what a Big Dance shill would say', well honey you're right
