I've noticed that I've run out of blog titles...


I decided on a list of things I need to start doing:
1. Drawing. I want to complete one drawing a week, and use the whole week to do so. I have a habbit of doing things to quickly and then my work suffers. I'm going to get a friend of mine to give me a drawing task each week and then I will email her the final project and if she feels I didn't put enough effort into it, then she gets to make me do it over.
2. I need to start the food exchanges again, but this time with meal plans. Each week I will plan my meals, and if I don't have what I need then I'll have to go to the store. No excuses this time.
3. Exercise. Not just because I want to be in shape, but because it will help with my mood. I do feel that the mood support mix and St. John's Wort are helping, just not enough. Plus exercising releases endorphins and endorphins make you happy.
4. Get some sun. Not for tanning purposes, but for my mood. Vitamin D helps with depression, but the best way is via sunlight. It absorbs better through your skin then taking it internally. So a 30 minute walk everyday should be perfect.
5. Yoga. I'm honestly not sure why I stopped, I felt really good when I was doing it everyday. Plus I need to try meditating.
6. Daily blogging. I think the more I blog the less I will have constant thoughts running through my head. It's so bad that I can't sleep right now, hence this entry. I have to be at work for 6am, but I can't sleep...
7. Relaxing. I don't know how, but I need to relax everyday, even if it's onlly for 5 minutes.
8. Take care of myself. I really don't do well at taking care of myself, especially not long term. That's really what this list is for, things I need to do to take care of myself. If I take better care of myself then maybe my depression will get better. I know that I am prone to getting depressed for the rest of my life. I'm okay with that, as long as I can get myself out of it. I'm sure that if I can take care of myself when I'm depressed that it will be easier to get better.


Well I'm going to try and sleep, I have work, than hiking tomorrow so sleep would be good.
