      @lost_fables Рік тому +66

      I can give you an overview of my way of dealing with all of these.
      1. Staying in the dark too much. I take care of it by going to the library, often going out to buy the snacks, and finding every little excuse to go outside.
      2. Consuming too much negative news. This is a tough one honestly. So in general I have dealt with it by deleting my social media and news related apps and websites. You can try engaging with a bit more positive content instead of the ones that arouse negativity inside of you.
      3. Blasting headphones. For this one, I simply started changing what I listen to. I opt for nature sounds. blue/white noise. Alternate between what you normally listen to and nature sounds until you can get rid of loud music altogether.
      4. Social Isolation. There was a point in time when I isolated myself to the point of no talking at all to anyone. I learnt my lesson the hard way but maybe you could try foraging friendships online, engaging people of similar interests and turning those internet relations to physical ones over time.
      5. Too much screen time. well, this is the hardest I'd say but I get rid of it by going for walks. using snacks as an excuse to leave my devices etc.
      6. Consuming sugar. Ah no, this too is the hardest one. Even I find it hard to get rid of but maybe, you could opt for natural sugars like fruits, sweet veges, sugar-free drinks and chocolate instead of things that contain refined sugars.
      7. Skipping breakfast. I simply wake up early. waking up early helps because by the time it's breakfast, you are probably gonna feel the need to eat.
      8. You're barely moving. Again I go with the snacks excuse to move my body.
      9. Poor sleeping habits. Try sleeping in silence instead of using music as a means to sleep. turn your lights off. Eat your dinner 2 hours before sleeping. have a proper schedule.
      It is essential to note that these are my opinions/suggestions on how to improve your habits and are not binding.
      Secondly, if you don't have the will to do it, it won't happen.
      Lastly, everything takes time and you have to keep up the effort and... I WISH YOU THE BEST OF LUCK!

      ​@@lamiagumboif they're always keeping consistent and try their best to be positive, then it would probably be enough to stop these things. Remember that grief is not something that shrinks over time. but something that always remains the same size, and is only covered with new experiences to not make the feeling not feel much painful. for example, holding baked cookes out of the oven without mittens would be painful. but over time, you learned. you learned how to not do that. how to make good cookies. even with consistent mistakes, you try consistently. and this time, you take out the delicious baked cookies you made with mittens on. you can still feel the heat, but its tolerable. so, one may recover through consistency. remember, you dont have to be positive all the time. it's okay to be weak. but dont stay weak forever. there's always someone to pick you up. as someone who had gone through terrible experiences of mental illnesses, its safe to say that it does get better no matter how much you despair thinking about how you would never feel better/okay. 💚💚💚

My clubhouse has a UA-cam page, and I'm one of the people on the video crew. I also help out with cleaning, and it is the first place that I have not felt intimidated to be around people. I'm still working on getting better at talking to others, but I'm happy with these first couple steps so far.

      For #1, I have succeeded in doing this for the week:
      - a. I get my body to regularly feel tired at 10p. This is regulating my hours.
      - b. The moment I feel tired, I turn off the screen and close my eyes and go to sleep. This is vs my prior habit of forcing myself to stay awake just to watch another video, which caused me to stay awake all night.
      - c. If I want screentime, I wake up early and give myself 30 mins of screen reading before I get ready for the day. This is based on the COMFY model of waking up.
      The main result of this are:
      1. I get 8 hours of good sleep a night.
      2. I now fall asleep and wake up consistently at regular times.

    In that situations I usually read books when I finished my works.

    Could you explain in more detail, please, why social isolation would it be stressing and harmful?
    There are a lot of introverts out there(including myself) who actually are feeling more peaceful and much better when they are most of the time alone on their own and without other people around.
    I don't think social isolation is it wrong as long as you feel great about it and enjoy your own company more than people's presence.

    • @bartmannn6717
      @bartmannn6717 Рік тому +9

      Yes, I'm an introvert myself, being around people is very tiring for me and I NEED my space afterwards. However, "social isolation" should be considered an extreme and unnatural state, in my opinion. Exercising tires me as well, often I don't want to do it and I have to rest a long time afterwards. But overall, I feel better as a whole.
      Another thing about social isolation that can be really damaging: If you are all alone by yourself, your own thoughts and opinions era unchallenged. Your brain starts to go in circles (positive feedback loop) until you start to believe in them too much, even if they are full of errors and wrong assumptions, going down further the rabbit hole. In short, you get weird, because you are disconnected from the rest of the world. Being happy with your pet doesn't count, because it will not challenge you thoughts.

    • @Dhalin
      @Dhalin 11 місяців тому +4

      Speaking as an introvert and someone who is now living alone after both of my parents passed away last year, one should seek moderation in all things. Sure, it's nice to have alone time, and that's great. However, _too much_ alone time leads to depression and boredom. You want _some_ social interaction, on your terms, and on your schedule, but not too much social interaction and you want alone time after your social interactions. But yet having zero social interactions at all is unhealthy. As an introvert, I like to occasionally get to see and be around other people, but in measured quantities. Not something I wanna do day in, day out, of course not. But, I find that after 2, 3, 4 days sitting at home alone, going out and seeing a few people I know helps me feel better for a time. Of course, after a couple hours or what-not, I find myself wanting to be alone again. But I wouldn't want to just have zero social interactions at all... that'd just be way too boring and depressing.

At some point (almost always) I feel that I need someone to at least be by my side. Just being there, hear my story or talks, not a so pushover but still care. Sometimes, its hard to make decision or even make a right choice if there's no one there to give you advice or even reprimand your action.

    #1 and #2 My mom who recently passed away was very much guilty of. She would always use blackout curtains in her room at all hours of the day and only used tiny lights. She didn't want light coming in her windows much at all, and she would constantly be scouring UA-cam for news and current events relating to the Middle East and Israel. Being a devout Christian, she was always on the watch for the Rapture, and spent her last several years yearning for it, constantly trying to predict it. It was an obsession with her, and she was SO sure that she was going in the Rapture, but... she passed away before that came to pass. She had become such a bitter person, always having a negative attitude about everything. Her smoking didn't help either, and every food, every piece of furniture, every bit of clothing, everything was terrible to her. Every movie, every game sucked, and she spent the last 5 years of her life just being bitter about everything. It would cause constant arguments between her and dad, and both of them were utterly miserable. And now that they've both passed away last year, it leaves me here, alone, trying to fix this mess of a house (it was so bad that it literally almost killed our cat; he came down with FLUTD because of the constant stress and terrible living conditions). But I've learned a lot from their mistakes, and I am doing my best to not make the same mistakes they did.

    I must disagree, intensely, with social isolation being something habitually damaging. Of course, there is loneliness. But that is not damaging. I am doing tremendously better, in my social isolation, than any time I when I was social. I am self-reliant, truly independent, very resourceful, have far more endurance, strength, and physical fitness, am down to my clinically ideal weight, am constantly studying to be able to do everything myself because I depend on nobody, and am far more knowledgeable because of the constant studies. I could have accomplished none of this if I had continued to waste my time being social. Being social is nothing but worthless drama, a drain on time, people being cruel to each other, evil mockery if someone does something out of the status quo, and it dumbs our independent thoughts down to near nothing. I tired of how cruel people were with me and isolated. It as the best thing I ever did. Loneliness does nothing negative to us. Being social does a tremendous amount of damage to humans. It is time to forget the indoctrination that humans must be social to accomplish success, health, independence, safety, and a feeling of self worth. If anything, being social accomplishes the exact opposite.

But, those people do not do anything outside the status quo behavior and thought pattern, in order to fit on and not e mocked, nor have another herd member be cruel to them. It was extremely easy for me to abandon attempts at all interpersonal, social interactions, whether amicable or amorous. I was never accepted and had no reason to try to assimilate into the herds. The loneliness just assures me I am doing the correct thing to stay safe, self-reliant, productive, and independent. But, I realise most are too dependent on interpersonal interactions to ever be truly independent. It is likely I will never go back to attempting social connections. I have gained so much with social isolation. I have even learned written English, completely of my own efforts and resources. "Friends," were nothing but low level enemies and opportunists.

      The whole sunlight thing is actually pretty interesting imo. You definitely need some sunlight because like they said, it causes your brain to produce melatonin and I believe it also helps with vitamin production at least making it more efficient. But being in the sun too much will actually cause you to feel drained. Like if you spend the day on the beach but you don't do anything, you might feel more tired than if you stayed inside and worked out or did something physically active. But it's because the sun heats you up, causing your body to work harder to keep cool and your skin also needs to be repaired after absorbing all that UV light. That's why I don't go to the beach often, I just feel all tired and sluggish for the next couple days.

    Awesome Video! Could take a lot from it for myself. Only the mention of eating breakfast I won't adopt because I'm into intermittent fasting and I feel that it does me very well.
