Self Care
If you feel sick;
Take a shower, you know its been three days. And while you're at it, brush your teeth. It'll do you good.
Don't get that microwave dinner or reheat the 4 day-old noodles, make yourself real food; make a meal. Don't know how? That's ok. Make a sandwich.
Get a whole ass glass of water too. Now get another. Drink it all. Get more water, and drink another 2 cups throughout the day. It's ok if you can't drink that much. Drink what you can.
When you've finished eating, put on clothes. Some real clothes, not your sweatpants and hoodie. Make yourself look and feel nice.
Talk a walk, and get fresh air. Go back inside, and open all your blinds. Let light into your place, and if you can, open the windows. Now, look around. Maybe it's messy? That's ok.
Get all of your dirty plates and cups, and put them in the dishwasher, or hand wash them immediately. Do not let them sit in the sink. Now, go around and empty your trash bags. Good. Put in new ones.
Go into your room and make your bed. Clear off your tables and put all the books scattered everywhere away.
Now, change your sheets. You know it's been too long. Gather your dirty clothes while you're at it, and wash it. All of it.
Feels good? Yeah. Now, look around. You've cleaned up a little. You feel cleaner. This is good. Whatever you do, don't sit around. Do something. Make yourself go somewhere. Even if it's just to your front yard, or the bathroom. Move. Breath deep.
Don't let anything pile up, ever.
