Something I Do for My Mental Health
The first thing I think of is sleep. Which is what I’m not doing now. I’ve been sleeping really well lately. But tonight I cannot get back to sleep. I went to sleep very early and woke at 1.30am. I’ve been laying awake listening to the roosters crow for a couple of hours and I’m just starting to become drowsy. Another thing I do is completely switch off particularly around negativity. Well to be truthful, I try to avoid those people. Not always possible.
It’s my birthday today and I have no idea what Stacey has planned for me today. It’s a surprise. Yesterday was also a surprise. I didn’t even look at the itinerary that Stacey planned for this trip. I am chilling out in my old age. In years past, I would have every last detail mapped out. To stay sane, I just “go with the flow”. Does anyone have any other thing I can try that will keep me out of a Filipino psychiatric facility?
