Some days I don’t feel like a person.

I feel like a blur of thoughts and tension in a body that’s stuck between “keep pushing” and "shut down completely.”

 This isn’t a fix-it list. These are just small things that help me come back to myself; even when I’m not okay.

I. Electric Kettle + Tea


Warmth helps. And something about making tea gives my brain a job without pressure.


Five Yogi tea boxes are arranged. Flavors include Honey Lavender, Blueberry Sage, Chamomile, Relaxed Mind, and Kava. Each box has vibrant designs.

II. Oversized Hoodie

The kind that makes you feel small, but in a good way. Like you’re safe. The kind that makes you feel small, but in a good way. Like you’re safe.

III. Soft Mirror Light


Because seeing yourself in harsh light when you already feel off? Absolutely not. This just softens the edges of your reflection.

IV. Water Bottle with Time Markers


Because hydration disappears when dissociation hits.

This makes it visual.


Two green water bottles, one with a bamboo lid and straw, the other with a flip top, contain lime slices. A cleaning brush is beside them.

V. Body Scrub or Aromatherapy Shower


Even if I’m spiraling, scent + sensation, help me come back into my body.

These don’t change my life. They just help me remember I have one. And sometimes, that’s more than enough.
