Hi guys, so this is just one of those random books where I complete all the challenges I've been tagged in.
If I tag you, I'm sorry... I guess? But I hope you have fun taking part in these tags and getting to know all the weird stuff about me!
Jus...
First things first; I'm baaaaaaack!!! How long has it been? WAYYYYY TOO LONG I'd say.
Secondly, I have a lot of tags to do. But I'm still kinda suffering from PESD (Post Exam Stress Disorder), due to sheer exhaustion from exam studying plus the stress from waiting for the impending - and most likely horrible - results.
On the bright side I'm done with my school subjects tho! I screwed them up massively but they're done! I'm freeee --- until the marks are given atleast.
(A/N When I began writing this, it was right after exams, but now we have got the results, and I'm genuinely relieved coz they are all better than I expected.)
But still!

Anyways, the stress of school exams plus the exams of the extracurriculars I do, plus the drama I'm facing at home (God forbid my life ever looks up lol), I've been pretty much feeling depressed and hopeless these days.
But now that I'm all up and free and sprightly, I thought I'd share up some stuff that always helps me through the times when I'm upset or when I feel like I'm a wreck.
These aren't motivational quotes or stuff. They are mainly self care tips and little checklists I run through my head during tough times.
Also... instead of just posting the pictures, for the sake of any unfortunate souls who's WiFi is down, I'm going to type everything. I also feel like, just posting pictures for you guys to read, about such an important topic is beside the purpose.
First of all, crying is a normal thing to do. It's our body's way of releasing any pent up emotions, be it sorrow, hopelessness, exhaustion, or even anger. It is something our body does when our coping mechanisms either fail, or for some, it is a coping mechanism.
It's NOT a sign of weakness, it DOES NOT make you pathetic, and it is NOT degrading. (If you are a woman, it is NOT typical. And if you are a man, it is NOT wimpy.)
It is natural, normal, and actually pretty healthy in comparison to keeping everything cooped up.
Me, I'm not a person who cries a lot. I mean, I cry over fictional universes, and get teary over compliments and stuff, but I don't usually cry for serious stuff. And even if I do manage to cry, the tears last for a span of five to seven minutes. Usually.
But everybody has their breaking points, and when I hit mine, I cry for a really long time. And then I stop abruptly. And suddenly burst into tears again. And stop and stare blankly for a while. And cry quietly again. And it goes on and on and on. It's usually a point where the dam I've held up for so long has broken.
