When I get down I have a plan
1) share my feelings and thoughts with trusted friends who help me sort out bad thoughts that are not true
2) make sure I eat and I'm not allowed to skip meals and eat my fav foods
3) listen to my fav music
4) goto the gym or go for a walk
5) not allowed to sleep in bed all day ... I have to force myself to do something
When things get really bad I do go see a therapist to sort things out in my head.

I'm on a really low carb diet but in bad days I jack up the sugar to get a sugar high ..... Thus us just something I figured out on my own that helps me
