I used to but since I joined 7cups not that much anymore. I learned to anchor myself with my senses and reframe unhelpful thoughts. Sometimes it still can be hard when things happen on the outside which impact me and I can't do anything other than radical acceptance and look at options to create better outcomes in the future.
@amiablePeace77 glad you have found an anchor. That helps to right the ship.
My weakness is I tend to be an emotional mess if I am not careful. My attachment style is anxious and it tends to draw me to the negative too much in my relationships … so I work on putting good back into the world that gives me J✨O✨Y …
I have a tendency for depression but I hide it well and function well. Self care all the way … 18 months ago bc my insecurity I left one of my relationships, I was not in a good place and vowed to not be in that mind space again took me months to re set ….
My home and love of organization helped …the heavy work of doing that … the routine … 💕💕
Months later my relationship rebounded and I work every day to be positive.
Daily work and check ins for me and my partners is a must … it helps with good communication where everyone is currently and what needs are not being met …. It helps a ton. Reduces my anxiousness and helps me feel connected in the love languages that work for me.
Btw I am married and polyamorous … with two relationships one with another man and a woman long term 6 years now outside of my nesting married partner of 22 years. It is ethical non monogamy. Kitchen table polyamory where everyone knows all.
@SunShineAlwaysGrateful you have been through a lot. Hope you fine an inner calm as well as outer harmony. Thank you for sharing your story.
@soulsings
i do spend time to reset regularly and I do feel calm 95% of the time now. Do the work all along helps don’t wait until you need self care or professional care from a counselor …
@SunShineAlwaysGrateful
I agree with you 💯. Self-care is most effective when it's done as a preventative measure that is a natural part of your daily life.

I am aware of my emotions and I take actions before they leave me jolted!
Cheers 🙂
@MeaningfulSilence that is a wise move. Any tips for us in that regard?
@soulsings
Hi Soul, it depends on the situation but generically speaking I would say.... To let go, to forgive, to look daily at what I can be grateful for.
Sometimes it's also necessary to move on and to make some changes (if necessary and if it's doable).
Hope it makes sense, without details and contexts 😅
@MeaningfulSilence yes it maks sense and there is no need to go into personal details. I understand.
