That i don’t go for enough walks being terminally online.
Overindulgence with a splash of occasional misanthropy
dermatillomania
I drink a lot of soda
This is the 80th comment and no one has said “drugs” (unless you count alcohol). Maybe drug addicts have better things to do with their time than browse lemmy!
maybe drug addicts just have More ubhealthy habits
Browsing the Internet on my phone instead of sleeping. It is indeed what I am currently doing.
Not sleeping like… Right now
I think people will change their mind when presented with facts
That and having to constantly check myself for just being human and not being the beacon of perfection I was supposed to be.
Fucking up my sleep schedule.
Also kinda abusing sleep medication when I get really depressed, I just take a bunch of sleeping pills so I can essentially skip time. Like a free trial of death.
This minus the pills. I have a smart watch that clearly shows that I don’t recover well if I go to bed late, but I always go to bed an hour later than I should ideally go, and always end up sleep deprived. I desperately need to cut this shit out.
Love the death analogy. Don’t we all have periods of just wanting to sleep to escape reality, but we fear non existence through death
I don’t fear non-existing. I fear the process of dying and the unknown that follows.
Depending on how you die the process can be horrible. I guess dying instantly from some kind of trauma is the easiest way to go. I have to believe the “unknown” is irrelevant because our consciousness no longer exists. Whatever atoms made us a human are simply reabsorbed into the universe. Neil deGrasse Tyson the astrophysicist has some great insights into this. If you check him out on youtube you find his speculation about god and human death
Vaping, doomscrolling, not eating healthy, binge drinking sometimes. The usual
Comfort Eating.
I don’t drink. I don’t smoke. I tried weed and found it uninteresting and never did anything harder. I exercise regularly.
But I’ll still never be the platonic ideal of a “healthy person”, because whenever I’m sad, I need processed sugar to feel like a person again. And brother, does life give me reasons to be sad.
For me it’s impulse eating. I badly need impulse control in many areas of my life.
Samesies. I remember back in college powering through a writing assignment with a 2L bottle of Coke and a 1lb. bag of M&Ms. Totally not healthy, but I learned later that it has to do with the relationship between insulin and neurotransmitters, like dopamine.
I think I need to read up on that link more.
I go without changing bedsheets for a bit longer than i should
is it that you couldn’t remember to? or you knew but didn’t bother anyway?
Nah I’m just lazy. I’m sitting on two months for my current one
Yea, I was pretty bad at that. Like I think it was almost 9 months between changes and I was living in Australia
That’s once a year💀. Buddy, even my lazy ass couldn’t take it that far. I’m talking usually 2-3 months. I would only change it if i was having… company… Iykwim
Same, but my company required an international flight so she didn’t get to visit that often.
Bro…
Hey, me too!
Add me to the unwashed bedsheets club lmao
It’s just so much of an ordeal imo
Lots of sitting. Both on my job and in my free time.
Wow this thread makes me comment multiple times, and I feel shittier and shittier the more comments I relate with.
Ikr
Life is sitting. Sit up in bed, sit in car, sit in office, repeat until bedtime. And if you think about it - laying down is really just the advanced/ultimate form of sitting.
My desk job
6 pack of beer almost every night for the past 3 months. Doctor refuses to help me unless I go to rehab, but it’s not feasible to spend that much time away from home.
Husband was drinking 3-4 a night and I was freaking out about it, he got it down to 1-2 by not buying it in packs except on weekend. Like he will stop at the corner store and get one beer for after work.
If you buy only one on your way home, instead of a six pack, do you think you would go out and get more, or might it work for you as it did for him?
I managed to quit for a week by buying one at a time plus a six pack of non alcoholic beer. Trying it out again today.
Good luck to you! A beer, a healthy supper, a walk in the night before bed. You can build healthy habits not just unhealthy ones. Do things to replace that beer. Yin yoga is really relaxing too, good bedtime practice.
Usually I’d be three in by now. Instead I mopped my floors and walked the dog. Eating a big salad now. Trying my hardest rn.
Awesome, that is great progress no matter what. Practice is what matters. Take care of yourself. Not kidding about the yin yoga - slow and cold, with pillows, it sort of tricks your nervous system into feeling safe.
3-4 a night?! That’s nothing at all.
Consider the medication, naltrexone.
Doc won’t put me on it until I’m weeks sober
Naltrexone (either the oral version or the monthly injection) can be started while someone is still drinking. Might be worth asking again or talking to an addiction medicine specialist.
