“tips for what to do after a really long cry because you’re probably feeling all kinds of exhausted and drained and i don’t want that for you in the slightest: ❕ 1) take a shower and change all of your clothes even your socks and underwear. this is the first step to everything. ❕ 2) pour yourself a big, cold glass of water and drink it. all of it. once you’re done, get yourself a refill. this will boost you physically and emotionally instantly—please trust me. ❕ 3) grab a snack, something light that you don’t have to wait to prepare. i recommend a pudding cup, a piece of fruit, yogurt, a popsicle or some crackers. ❕ 4) get under the covers. turn on something - TV, a movie, music, anything distracting. or consider calling a friend or talking to anyone nearby, even your sibling the next room over! ❕ 5) know that you are loved. you are important. you mean more than you know right now, more than you will maybe ever know. you are worth all the stars in the sky. you deserve to feel good.” —Maeve Kelly ❕ artwork by @recipesforselflove
