A Fools Guide To Not Wanting To Die Anymore

a fools guide to not wanting to die anymore

by me, a fool who doesnt wanna die anymore 

never make a suicide joke again. yes this includes “i wanna die” as a figure of speech. swear off of it. actually make an effort to change how you think about things.

find something to compliment someone for at least 4 times a day. notice the little things about the world that make you happy, and use that to make other people happy.

talk to people. initiate conversation as often as you possibly can. keep your mind busy and you wont have to worry anymore

picture the bad intrusive thoughts in youe head as an edgy 13 year old and tell them to go be emo somewhere else

if someone makes you feel bad most of the time, stop talking to them. making yourself hang out with people who drain you is self harm. stop it.

Adulting Life Hacks (Short List)

Buy an air mattress 12+ inches off the ground and a memory foam bed topper or two. It’ll cost hundreds less than a mattress and you’ll sleep just as good if not better. 

Wash your sheets once a week if you can. Yes, you will notice a difference. 

Never study/read/scroll through tumblr on your bed. Your brain associates activities with places. Associate your bed with sleeping. 

Grocery outlets are not below you. You can get the same produce at a steep discount, allowing those on a college sized budget to eat better. 

Invest in quality products (laptops, school supplies, clothes, ect) but don’t be outlandish. A laptop that will last you through a doctoral degree is one thing and a $200 pair of jeans is another. 

Never go to sleep with makeup on if you can help it. 

Cleanse, exfoliate, tone, THEN moisturize. 

Tea tree oil shampoos twice a week will heavily combat dandruff and scalp flakes. 

Invest in a pair of good sneakers and hiking shoes. Look for pairs at thrift stores and outlets. (I got a pair of leather Timberland boots for $20). 

Always carry an umbrella, a lip balm or chapstick, change, and a snack. 

Therapy does not mean you are weak or need help. Sometimes talking things out can let your brain focus on more important things. 

Stay positive my darlings.
