Hi everyone!
@Jynx @Oaktree @Glisten @Shaz51 @Healandlove
I was meaning to reply on this thread earlier, but life gets busy.
@Jynx , you made some very insightful comments about co-dependency/enmeshment. I agree that humans are wired as social beings, and I think it's good to look at it from the perspective of healthy or too-enmeshed relationships. For me, this is tied to people-pleasing and the difficulty of having my own opinions because I am too used to seeking out the opinions of others.
I love dancing, too! What kind of dancing do you do?
My one thing would be listening to music. I find it's a great, mindful activity and I can choose what genre to listen to, depending on my mood and whether I want to be stimulated or chill. Everything from mainstream pop, to K-Pop, Latin, anime and Lo-fi.
And for my proud achievement: establishing and maintaining a career despite my mental health challenges. It hasn't been easy, but since starting work I have felt a lot more useful now.
