Zooey

over here

spiraled out of control in the most ridiculous, comical yet depressing way.

_{I’m sorry to be vague. I know this isn’t a ‘one sentence’ journal but I just felt like putting it here so I can remember how and why and work to stop it happening again. If I don’t, I feel like I might wake up all lethargic tomorrow and undo all of today’s work.}

Things that have helped today:

• finally forcing myself to do some things I’d been putting off for months and months (and dramatic increase in my activity level overall)
• boxing
• actually going out tonight (at least, until the end)
• my new found hospitality crush

Um, that’s all I can manage to write tonight.

- keep up some form of regular exercise, no matter what
- engage my intellect
- distract myself when I find myself thinking in circles (anything to get myself outside my own head)
- feed my body, not my emotions
- sort out my sleeping pattern
- go outside every day
- change things, do something different every day, never let one day become indistinguishable from the next
