I try to. I take my meds consistently. I practice self care. Do yoga, meditate, stay connected with my faith, try to socialize when I feel up to it, etc. What I'm not good with is eating healthy and exercising. I need to work on that. But I am doing other things like getting my dental appointments taken care of so that's a good thing because my teeth have been in bad shape due to my years of bulimia. I haven't gone for a physical in a few years. I need to go though, not that I have anything bothering me it's just that my care manager thinks it would be a good idea to get one every so often. So I'm going to try to do that sometime this month. I also use plenty of coping skills when I'm struggling.
