Mental Health Works - The Shaming Of You

The Shaming Of You

Mental Health Works

New year new me

Because the old me wasn’t good enough, or so many of us think.

So what do we do every single year to shame ourselves into doing better?

Christmas is the time for jolly and all that, bringing us closer to people we want to see and some we are happy to see at that time only. We eat we drink we laugh then we feel bad about ourselves, as the nights grow colder we don’t want o go out we want to stay in and reach for more handfuls of nuts or crisps or sweets or cake or biscuits to make ourselves feel better.

Now I am not trying to shame you about your easting, but rather paint a picture as to what is and how. we place ourselves in impossible positions based on how we shame ourselves.

We do such a good job of shaming ourselves we don’t need support but every now and then we get it, from that family member who calls us porky or squeezes our sides.

Mental Health Works - S.H.R.E.D Creating new habits

Creating habits can be a very difficult task. often we make the new habits way too complicated and it takes too much work to even conceptualize them. S.H.R.E.D. stands for Sleep, Hydration, Relaxation, Exercise, and Diet.
When we shred all the old stuff we can make room for the new stuff.

Mental Health Works - Is it A Relationship, Situationship, Dictatorship or Rockingship

Define the types of relationships we find ourselves in by categorizing the terms of what the relationship is actually doing.
I have termed a relationship as a journey of combined partnership
Sitauionship as an interaction based on convenience
Dictatorship is a controlled manner in which an interaction is directed
Rockingship is a volatile experience of interaction.
Which one are you in? ]This does not just apply to intimate relationships but ones that we have with those around us.
Identify how you enter into them and how you interpreted what is going on in terms of conflict.
