Today I won’t have a video but I did want to write something just to keep our mental health week going! We’ve talked about all the negative emotions but what about the positive emotions happiness being the most popular! How do you describe happiness? How do you feel physically and mentally when you are happy? For me I have more energy everything is positive! Nothing can go wrong. But it can cause impulsiveness as well which can be great but also not so great! Impulsive thoughts cause us to make decisions with little judgment. For example I get really happy having a great day but I have $50 in my bank account and instead of saving it I have an impulsive thought to upgrade my office setup or get a tattoo. I don’t think about it too much I just do it! Not healthy at all by the way! So tell me have you ever had an impulsive thought?
allll the time! and still struggle with them doesn't always work but a thought I try and remind myself when an impulse comes up that i am trying to fix, is how much the people I love the most depend on me. and how that impulse is taking away from their future joy or security. i struggle to remember it in some moments
Love the perspective! this stuffs never easy but has made me who I am today. The trials and tribulations have built me into someone capable of handling anything thrown at me so i can be a pillar for others to lean on. You have a lot of strength in you and your mom can use all of that now. Your relationship with her will be ten fold after the successful surgery. Continuing to keep her in my prayers
@Noah Wolcott yeah everyone does a 15min call every so often just to check in and make sure everything's going well/answer any questions or give updates. They are super casual
