Psychology in practice? All emotions, talking, mindfulness. It fails me, or I it. I'm plenty emo on my own 馃槀. I'm looking now at points of focus, avoiding talk therapy, mindlessness via real sleep. Calm, quiet, focus? I had em once. How do you manage? Tips and advice welcome!

The biggest life skill I ever taught myself is to stop. Stop what I was doing at that moment, letting it go. Completely and utterly stop, and then do something else so I can embrace and enjoy that.

That's wonderful. I need to do similar. I fear stopping i suppose as what happens if i can't get myself started again 馃槀馃槺馃槈

I try to drink plenty of water, rest, and breathe deeply when my thoughts start whirling. I also listen to soothing music, and look at images of nature (or go for a walk in a park). It doesn't always work. But most times it does.

Art and music seem to do that for me too. I'm glad you have found such creative activities to help. 馃槉
