7 Tips for Happiness

onlinecounsellingcollege:

1. Have one or two really good friends – people you can trust and be honest and real with.

2. Build some adventure into your life. We all need to dream, and to stretch our boundaries.

3. Get rid of the excess stuff in your life – the people and the clutter that take up too much space.

4. Try to find some kind of balance between super-busy-ness and then feeling bored, as you’ve nothing much to do.

5. Give into temptation every once in a while, otherwise you’ll feel too cramped and constrained by your life.

6. Don’t just accept and put up with yourself. Really learn to love and appreciate yourself.

7. See each day as a brand new day – don’t look back at what happened, or the people, in your past.

This is kind of random but I just got really stressed out and want to talk about something I feel is important.

If you have depression or any other mental illness/condition that affects your daily life and can make it hard to function, please try to at least brush your teeth. Bare minimum. When even that’s too much I sometimes will just swish around some mouthwash when I p*** or something. Anything.

Depression really ****ed up my mouth and now it hurts to eat/drink most things and my dental bills are high because of how neglectful I got during particularly bad episodes when I was younger. Teeth can’t repair or replace themselves, so take care of them as best you can. If not just for the health aspect of it, keeping up your dental hygiene could save you from a lot of financial stress in the future.

ok that’s all take care toodles

****ING THIS ^^^^

I honestly just stopped caring at one point and my teeth are quite literally dying in my mouth. 

Every other day part of some tooth is breaking off in my mouth, and eating is so ****ing painful. 

Not to mention that just BREATHING causes pain to shoot through my gums to the point that sometimes I’m in tears. 

Please, PLEASE, force yourself to brush your teeth. I wish I would have. 

I recently had to have three cavities removed and a root canal because of this. Please. Please take care of your teeth.

If you can’t force yourself to get out of bed and go to the bathroom, they make mini disposable toothbrushes with toothpaste, like Colgate Wisp. Keep them next to your bed and use them. 

Extremely this; three of my teeth just crumbled recently because brushing my teeth was something that fell by the wayside when i was too depressed to even get out of bed most days! Its really hard but believe me, the feeling of your own tooth falling to pieces in your mouth is infinitely worse

my mother always said brushing your teeth is the gateway to self care
