Eating Disorders

The mind is wired to focus on what feels missing. When you fixate on an outcome like love, success, or status, your brain keeps scanning for evidence that you do not yet have it. That creates the feeling of lack, even if you are making progress. This is often called the arrival fallacy, the belief that happiness will begin once you reach a certain milestone. In reality, fulfillment grows from engaging in meaningful action right now. Focus on building skills, nurturing relationships, and doing work you care about. When your attention shifts from chasing to creating, the feeling of lack begins to dissolve.

Ask yourself: Am I chasing a result, or am I building a life?

Adulting can be challenging for many reasons. One of the biggest can be the “harsh,” difficult, eye-opening, comforting, or even transformative realizations that come from experiences shaping and reshaping your perspective.

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks recently realized that she’ll have to do things even when she feels scared or anxious. If she wants better opportunities, she has to work through what she once believed she couldn’t. She constantly reminds herself that it’s OK to ask for help and that she doesn’t have to know everything. She doesn’t have to have it all figured out.

What’s a realization you’ve had recently?

Healing from depression and emotional overwhelm often feels subtle, not dramatic. As your awareness grows, your nervous system begins to calm and your reactions soften. Over time these small moments of pausing, observing, and caring for yourself replace inner chaos with clarity and peace. The more consistently you practice awareness, the stronger your mental health becomes.

If this resonates, save it for moments when emotions feel intense.

Also, if you're going through a tough time right now, I want you to know that I post daily mental health videos about how to deal with painful thoughts.

Journaling doesn't have to be fancy, or even in a notebook. You can scribble thoughts down on scrap paper, a post it note or even a napkin. It can be a few sentences, a few paragraphs or even pages long. You'd be amazed how much it helps your brain to get the thoughts out on paper. Also, it can help you process thoughts or something that you're going through that's hard.

If you try it today, let me know how it goes!
