Personally I get real mean to myself and call myself garbage. How about you?

    Picking. I’m pretty compulsive about it. Can really fuck things up if I’m nervous about an upcoming social event, as I end up with a puckered face, making it worse. Idk why I do this, a lot of times I’m not really even conscious I’m doing it until after the fact.

      I’m a fan of mindfulness and gratitude practice. Also, physical exercise! Nothing like working up a good sweat when I’m mad at myself to feel better after.

    Do you like Huey Lewis & The News? Their early work was a little too ‘new-wave’ for my taste, but when ‘Sports’ came out in '83, I think they really came into their own – both commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He’s been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor. In '87, Huey released this, ‘Fore’, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is ‘Hip to Be Square’, a song so catchy most people probably don’t listen to the lyrics – but they should! Because it’s not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it’s also a personal statement about the band itself!

    Mine are all unhealthy but I think my stress is quite high. It was drinking way too much… not it’s having a drink with junk food, staying up late 报复熬夜, and being outwardly anxious
