So this is a very complex question, that doesn’t have a fit all answer. I’d say if your in a bad place, changing your routine, enviroment, mind set and alot of self reflection are key. Often times you have to really know yourself and face uncomfortable truths, then adjust your lifestyle slowly to develop a new situation. Be open but not a pushover, don’t hate yourself but want to improve, find kindness in a world that is unkind. I can go on and on but ultimately alot of knowing yourself will help you move forward.
what about in a scenario where you almost self reflect too much normally, and you’re currently in really bad place because your routine got changed because your living environment was flooded and insurance/contractors changed/solidified your mindset for the worse through multiple disheartening experiences?
Once again there is no perfect fit all answer. If your in a deeply bad place, I would suggest seeking professional help as I am not a professional. Its important to find a source of healthy source of grounding/comfort/routine. of your life has been turned on its head try to take control of it, in what little way you can. From the comment your routine has been changed, adjust what you can. It’s easy for me to say multiple disheartening experiences will end eventually and things will change as its not me but life is more than the shitty days. Try to take hold and seize moments you can.
