Positivity!
Hey guys, this is a bit of a different post compared to previous ones, but i thought it would be good for some people to read. I hope you enjoy this post, even though it is a bit different compared to others, it's not beauty or hair or anything, but enjoy!
Okay guys, recently i've been feeling a little unhappy about a few things in my life I don't want to go into detail about how i've been feeling since i don't want to seem like i'm "craving attention" or something stupid. I know that a lot of people suffer from quite similar problems when it comes to feeling, quite down, unhappy and sometimes not yourself, so i want to tell you all what i do when i begin to feel like this and how i start to feel better!
1. Write in a diary. I wasn't all into writing a diary at first, i basically thought it was like talking to myself but it writing form, but it makes you feel so much better to write down how you're feeling! I know diaries are shown in movies to be super cheesy and writing about boys and school and blah blah, that's not really true (unless, you want to i suppose).
If you've had a pretty tough day or you just have a lot to say, write it down! You will feel 100x better after you've written down all your thoughts and feelings, even if it's 100 pages long, do it!
2. Everyday tell yourself (or write down) 5 things you like about yourself! Don't always feel so negative about yourself, i know that when you're feeling down all you can do is think about all these negative thoughts well, STOP RIGHT NOW. Whenever you begin to have a negative thought stop and tell yourself 5 things that you love about yourself! Your personality, how you look, anything that you find as an asset to yourself! You'll soon begin to believe what you're saying and your confidence will boost!
3. Find things to look forward too. Plan trips with your friends, family even just plan things to look forward to with yourself (i know that sounds sad, but we all need me time!). Having something to look forward to will most likely brighten your day completely and it'll make you feel so much better! For example, when you're at school or work, you can look forward to something as simple as going out for dinner with your friends, or family or partner, it'll make your day fly over as well!
4. Take a walk. Whether you live in a large city or you live in the middle of no where, take a walk just to clear your head have a think, and spend lots of time just with yourself. Spending time with yourself is something that always helps, it just gives a whole time to think about yourself, thinking about life and just clear your head of any thoughts that have been bringing you down, or worrying me etc. It's also nice just to see around the area in which you live too!
5. Finally, find a way to express yourself! Now, this is something that is totally up to you, find something you really love and just go for it! That could be back to writing in a diary, drawing, playing games, playing with make-up, anything you enjoy! If you find something that you really enjoy and can express yourself with, it will make you feel so much better and you'll be able to focus on something else rather than any negative feelings that may have been bothering you before!
I hope this has been helpful to you, even if you just take one of those bits of advice i hope it helps you! I know everyone has their own ways of dealing with these feelings, but i hope i've given you a bit of inspiration on how to make yourself feeling better!
