Regrann from - Whenever you get triggered, get curious, there’s understanding that’s needed. Your trigger is telling you that you need more information in order to feel safe and secure in this situation, whatever it may be. It’s automatic almost for us to lash out… to get angry, to withdraw. But those behaviours are the responses we learn as children… they’re not conducive to maintaining connection and building deeper intimacy. They don’t invite curiosity and adventure, and the willingness to be vulnerable to create a different outcome.

Are you living in the present? .
What defines an individual as "anxious" is feeling threatend by social situations and circumstances that most people would take in stride. Experiencing fear or even panic-with very little provocation, chronic anxiety can cause individuals to live lives of constant worry, insecurity, and a truly frightening sense of vulnerability.
Depressed individuals frequently report feelings of emptiness--of profound sadness or gloom. And whereas anxiety, with its many physiologically arousing features, typically puts a person in a state of panick, while depression typically slows a person down into sadness. Severe cases of both Anxiety and depression are capable of impairing both your speech and physical movement

Regrann from - Today we’re putting the spotlight on pill-shaming 💊 Pill-shaming is the mocking or criticizing of people who take medication. Many people take medication(s) for their mental illness and the stigma surrounding it keeps a dangerous taboo in place. Stigma prevents many people from seeking the help they need. Seeking help and taking care of yourself is a sign of strength! Taking medication does not make you weak! Do whatever you need to do to take care of yourself 💙 Nobody with mental illness should ever feel ashamed for seeking help and taking medication. We should support and uplift people in their recovery journey. Let’s be advocates and dismantle the stigma around medication! (artist unknown) -

Regrann from - For those who are struggling and nobody knows it: you don't have to keep it all together, kid. No one is meant to carry that kind of weight alone. No one. And while it might be scary to ask for help, or even just to reach out to talk about what's going on in your life, you need to do it. You can't keep building these walls higher and higher and wonder why you feel so alone. You have to let people see you. You have to let them in. Others can only help us if they know we need it. Those who love you will try to understand even if they haven’t experienced it themselves, and if they don’t, there are professionals who will. Just know that we all have our s**t. We all have insecurities that play on repeat at night. Every single one of us. So stop trying to hide your fraying edges. Sometimes the strongest thing we can do is to allow ourselves to be soft.

For everyone else: send a text to your friend who "doesn't need help". Just say hi.

We're in this together. || #

Regrann from - Ah, snap! So true, warriors. No amount of self-improvement will make up for a lack of self-acceptance. Next time you think the answer is in controlling your food or exercise, think again. Self-acceptance takes time to build. Learning the practice of self-compassion is one of the best places to start.

Speaking negatively to yourself on a regular basis can have a profoundly bad effect on many aspects of your life. If you openly trash yourself, you give people around you license to do the same.

Regrann from - We're not everyone's cup of tea...and that's okay. It doesn't make us bad and it also doesn't mean that they're "not deserving of us." I see a lot of memes declaring that if a person doesn't want to be with us then it's THEIR loss -- that's not necessarily true. We may not be a loss to others, yet for some reason if a relationship doesn’t work out the only way for us to be “okay” is if we tell ourselves the story that the other person is missing out. That’s not always true...AND AGAIN...it’s okay. Because here's the thing--if a person doesn't want to get to know us because they're judging something or haven't taken the time, then we let it be. We don't change ourselves to fit *their* ideal. But, where we go wrong is when our egos are too bruised that it keeps us from taking a close look at ourselves and humbly seeing where it is we can be better.
Let's say a person doesn't want to be with us and it's because we aren't kind, or compassionate enough; maybe we let them down by being inconsiderate. Then they can give us that feedback and we can decide if we want to challenge ourselves to be better, to be more kind, more compassionate, and more considerate.
You see...we don't have to change *for* people...we just have to be willing to grow for ourselves and for the people we love.
Don't change from an insecure place...grow from a WILLING place. Grow because you want to transform. Don't let fear make you shrink yourself. Don't let fear convince you that you need others to accept you for you to be enough.

Regrann from - Freaking perfectionism! When the fear of rejection, failure, disappointment, and being unlovable start creeping up, remember perfectionism doesn’t address those core fears. Trying to be perfect may feel safe and helpful, but really it just perpetuates the false sense of safety that perfectionism may temporarily give you. Perfectionism doesn’t solve the need for love, belonging, and worth. It doesn’t fulfill your deepest truth! Look y’all, if you’ve followed me for the last 10 months you may start seeing a pattern here... YOU HAVE TO FEEL THE FEELINGS. Perfectionism is a distraction. .

Regrann from - What’s screwed up is how normalized disordered eating is. I distinguish eating disorders, disordered eating, and normal eating. Think of it like a spectrum with varying levels of severity. Just because you don’t have a diagnosed eating disorder doesn’t automatically mean you’re relationship with food, body, and self is functional. .
🍴Eating Disorder: Severe symptoms and disease such as Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder, Orthorexia, or Other specified feeding or eating disorder “OSFED.” You’ll hit criteria of distress, impairment in functioning, and obsession that needs medical and psychological treatment. It’s a complex biological, psychological, social, emotional, spiritual disease.
🥣Disordered Eating: (The DSM-V doesn’t distinguish the two, so this is a matter of professional opinion and experience) Your relationship with food is unbalanced. You subscribe to rigid rules about food and are often guided by guilt and shame when it comes to food. You ignore hunger and fullness cues, or perhaps you can no longer feel them. You engage in artificial, unsustainable, quick diet weight loss or weight gain. You’re likely heavily enmeshed with diet culture and have poor body image, weight concerns, and are consumed (obsessed) with thoughts of food. Disordered eating will looks like a chaotic relationship with food. This can easily escalate or fit the criteria for OSFED, a full blown diagnosis. .
☀️Normal Eating: As an abnormal psychology professor, we actually use the word normal here (we could statistically map this out but I’ll spare you, and myself). Your relationship with food is cool! It’s not obsessive or controlling. It’s not abusive. You enjoy a variety of foods and are thoughtful and mindful about food, not distressed. You enjoy the pleasure and satisfaction of food. You’re mindful of hunger cues and generally know how much your body needs. Thoughts are balanced, calm, and you respect seasons and changes in your appetite and food desires. Food doesn’t impair your functioning in life! We’re not robots. We all have “disordered” eating times. It’s okay!

Regrann from - We think if we punish ourselves enough, we'll change. Accepting ourselves unconditionally is difficult because we must give up the fantasy that if we punish ourselves enough with negative thoughts, we'll change. It's as if we think we can whip ourselves into shape by saying things like: • I'm weak for feeling any anxiety. • I'm abnormal because I'm quiet. • There's something wrong with me if I don't have lots of friends and an "active" social life. • I'm a loser. • I'm weird. • I'm boring.

We cling to the belief that by berating ourselves, we'll transform into "social butterflies." But as I've learned from experience, this strategy doesn't work well. In fact, the more we yell at ourselves to "buck up," "snap out of it," or "get tough," the more anxious we become. The frightened little child inside of us doesn't respond favorably to such a mean dictator. Instead, we need to find ways to accept the anxious part of our selves, to hold that part by the hand and gently say, "You're OK."

Regrann from - We often cling to the idea of, “I’m just not good at talking about my emotions!” Many believe that this ability to communicate is a skill we’re born with but I disagree - this is a skill we can and should build. The difference between the people who can and the people who can’t, is that the people who can are showing up, and doing their best, even when they are afraid to be vulnerable.
In short - they’re trying, they’re starting, they’re practicing.

This skill allows us to express our expectations and what we need from our partners. It can turn arguments into discussions. It can determine whether we build and learn, or cause pain and damage.

Even more importantly, it will offer us the opportunity to celebrate wins and let our partner know when we feel joy, satisfaction, gratitude and love. Being a great communicator, in the end, will be the largest contributing force in the satisfaction and longevity of ALL our relationships.

The secret is to try. To start with the words that we know. The rest will come with practice.

Welcome to Day 1 of our series on setting SMART goals for the new year! Each week we are going to focus on a different component of this plan, and this week we’ll be focusing on “S”, which stands for “Specific”. One of the biggest issues that people have when they set goals is that the goals are vague, which makes them hard to follow. This week we’re going to talk about ways to make your goals more specific, and you can also read more about this in our latest blog post (link in bio)! Photo cred:
