If you’re not getting sunlight and exercise regularly- you don’t know what a good baseline normal for you is really like.

Start with getting out and having a 30 min walk everyday. Commit to a walk, aim for 30 min everyday.

The path forward from there will be easier because you’re already working on the problem. Starting is the hardest part

>Breathing excercises, 4 seconds in, 4 seconds out. Make sure you do a longer exhale if needed.

Hey i know that excercise!! I do free hand mostly and i do that everyday.

>Self-talk: dont always react to the first thing in your head. Always reflect on what you think. Dont be too hard on yourself or others. When speaking to yourself, do so with respect.

I don't know but everytime my mind always says- " you are not good enough for love. No one's gonna love you. " Or " no one's gonna care if you die"

I know some facts are true but sometimes I wonder if it's just the lies told by my depression

My dad (still alive) used to read us The Night Before Christmas on December 24 every year when we were kids/teens. I think he even did it into our early twenties when we would come home from University. About 15 years ago he found an audio picture book of the story where you record your own voice and it lines up as you turn the pages. He recorded himself reading it and gave one each to my sister and I. I still have that book and I store it without batteries so it won't get ruined (tried it with batteries last year and it's still going strong, but I'll probably record it on my phone at some point just to further preserve it). Some day that's going to be priceless.
