You need you

You don't need to be fixed, you need to be held by your own attention. When life feels overwhelming, ask yourself: Have I been abandoning myself in the name of busyness, people-pleasing, or perfectionism? Try this today: take 5 minutes to check in with your body, your breath, and your emotions—without judgment. Say to yourself, “I’m here.” Healing doesn’t always begin with action; sometimes it starts with simply returning home to your own presence.

What’s one gentle thing you can do for yourself today? Write it below so others can be inspired too.

Sexual

What's the best way to deal with addiction. Sexual addiction actually. I know this may be weird or out of the norm, but I guess that's what we are here for, to be ourselves and get help.

Basically I've not been able to have a real connection with a female, according to my therapist this is for two reasons. He says I've found a safe spot in masturbation, soi really have no care or drive to put in efforts into others because I have the mindset of easy satisfaction, so why put in effort.

My job also has me spending a lot of time on the computer, and this just makes it even harder cause it's right there. I guess what I'm here for is to find a way to actually be able to say no when I'm in that mood and maybe stand up and go find a real female who is interested.

I don't know if this is even a real mental condition. Ps I'm a fully healthy person, with no sexual defects or issues. Maybe a bit shy.

Why Your Mental Health Skills Fail Under Pressure (And How to Fix It)

You wouldn’t play in the championship without training… so why do we wait for a mental health crisis to start practicing?

The greats don’t wing it. They train.

And if you want to stay calm when life hits hard—you’ve got to do the same.
