I have a list of 'steps' I take if I feel myself spiraling/falling into crisis.

1. Eat something - sometimes, I am only spiraling because I have not eaten in a long time, and my blood sugar is crashing.

2. Text a friend

3. Go somewhere where there are other people, and I am safe from hurting myself - e.g., walking around a grocery store

4. Take a bath

5. Get warm - heated blanket, space heater, warm PJs

6. Watch a light-hearted show

If, after all of that, I am still not feeling safe, I reach out to my T for help.

[rainbow8]

1. Talk about T and my therapy on here
2. Talk to a few close friends who will listen
3. Distract by painting, singing, reading
4. Go somewhere or do something with family or friends
5. Eat
6. Email my T

In no particular order or judgment on healthy/good verse unhealthy/bad. I am trying to view them in terms of what is the safest at the moment and to try to do the least risky that will resolve the distress at the given moment:
walking
eating/ED
curling in bed
music
isolating/quiet time
bath
talking to friends
posting here
medication
SH
contacting T

[RaineD]

Read therapy-related books in an attempt to figure out what's wrong with my therapy and how to fix it.
Long walks.
Lying in bed thinking/feeling sad/doing nothing.
Sleep.
Texting friends (I have two friends I can talk to about therapy/therapist, and I'm driving them both crazy with my obsession).
Working out.
Crying when I can get the tears out.
Emailing T.

I used to write about therapy, but I stopped a couple months ago.
I used to drink to deal with feelings, but I stopped that due to T's disapproval.
