Good forum post. Initially eating healthier and doing physical exercise are the two main things we should do, so am glad you are doingyes

I am going for walks both morning and evening with my brother and also trying to eat healthier. To feel relaxed, i love listening to music. And i try to plan routines, though i often fail to follow the routines completely if i be honest, yet i try to fullfill the task and improve myself from the condition i started doing the work.

Mentally/emotionally, I am trying to be more aware of my feelings and how they might affect things I say/do. For example, when I am annoyed, I might respond sarcastically or make a verbally cutting remark. My husband finds this hurtful, so I am trying to instead tell him if he does something that annoys me (or if I am just annoyed in general). I think we got to this place because in the past, if I said something negative he either dismissed it, insisted on suggestions to fix it, or said I was complaining. So I stuffed it until it exploded out as sarcasm or cutting remarks later on. I need to express it in a way where I am owning my feelings and a way to address them.
