I watch funny animal videos or animal fails
Watch a good series or one of my favourite films
Tea and chocolate and some diet coke/pepsi max
Long warm shower
Listening to good music and doing some colouring
Thinking about the positives in my life or my goals and dreams
Try to get out of my room and talk with my sister - she can usually make me laugh and sometimes we have conversations that last for hours.
Cuddle with my dog.
Do some baking.
Go for a therapeutic walk or gym session.
Lie under the blankets and feel all warm (while watching series/reading/scrolling through social media etc)
These are some things that cheer me up, what are some of the things that cheer YOU up? :)
After a 5 year struggle with anorexia (with purging tendencies), depression, self harm and over exercising I have now been recovered for 4 years and i use my blog to help others in the same situation i once was. I am now a happy and positive person who wants to inspire those struggling to choose recovery and to take control over life and happiness again!

ReplyDeleteMy favorite cheer-er uppers are...
-- working out
-- listening to some of my favorite songs/music artists
-- writing, drawing, & coloring
-- talking to my mom or older brother
-- texting one of my best friends and just talking to them
-- talking to random people in the spot where I am when I feel sad; sometimes in the hallways at school, other people in line, or at the doctors in the waiting room!
-- reading anything; usually your blog or the blog Lord Still Love Me by Julia :) !
-- sitting in silence with my boyfriend and just enjoying his presence and warmth
-- getting out into nature & breathing in fresh air!
-- praying :)
I am sending you loving, healing, and caring, warm thoughts!
You are awesome and we love you so much!!
