crochet with me | my dopamine menu (unraveled ep. 7)

[@ASquareGranny]

It is so BRAVE to put content such as this, especially, out “there”…I truly cannot imagine having the ability to do so in my twenties! You are INCREDIBLE! Thank you, so much, for sharing with us; even though I’m in my fifties, I can still ABSOLUTELY relate to SO much (hence the all caps text, eh? Oof. Sorry). Thank you! Brightest blessings, hugest hugs to you 🧡

[@amazingishgrace]

am i brave or do i just have an oversharing problem 🤣🤣 but THANK YOU

[@allisonreynolds5410]

this was definitely worth posting because of the way you are able to articulate things I feel like I already knew out-loud just helps me resonate and recognize it much more than it being an unspoken thought in my head. Thank you for this!

[@blissprokop6239]

Physical activity has been proven to be a mood booster. Try walking outside (weather permitting), yoga or stretching, dancing in your room.

[@neea8807]

Oh yeah having stuff done is such a mood booster. When I was at the worst of my depression I would cope to bad news by starting small crochet projects, just to feel like I had done something good. Like yeah I can't do [redacted] but I did THAT cute plushie, I'm allowed to stop crying and sleep tonight.

[@amazingishgrace]

SO TRUE HAHAHA

[@mizzKist]

Grace your podcast episodes are the BEST 🤎 srsly love and hope you stay with it ✨

[@amazingishgrace]

THANK YOU 🫶

[@anamiosonami]

we don't have a word for 'sparkling water' in my language, but we do have a word for another pretty thing! "Červánky" (plural) is the czech word for the time the sky and coulds turn a pretty red, pink, or orange color at sunset or sunrise :) I've always loved this word.

[@amazingishgrace]

omg i loveee that

[@mbafanezike]

IM SO EXCITED FOR THIS NEW VIDEOOO❤❤❤❤

[@kalientecreates]

my list is definitely SO SIMILAR to yours! i literally will go to cafes to people watch! i also love swimming and being surrounded by water because it's very calming! i also love crochet, especially massive projects!

[@audrey.robertson]

u look even more gorg with each vid! loved listening to this one

[@aneesai241]

LOVED this vid and I can’t wait for the one on your reasoning for putting crochet\knit on the list

[@emitorresbun]

I appreciate this a lot!! I have some things in common with you especially wanting to feel seen and understood. That’s such a good point about memes I love it. I also have a list of things in my notes app for when I need ideas to get out of a bad state. I just renamed it my dopamine menu lol!! I’ll paste it here 😊 Things to help your mood: - [ ] Go outside for 20 mins, or a walk - [ ] Have a headphones rock out (a few fave songs or a familiar album) - [ ] Choose a cleaning/organizing project and complete it - [ ] Have a yummy snack or drink - [ ] Take some deep breaths and shake it out - [ ] Get high for fun (as opposed to for symptom management) - [ ] Connect with someone - [ ] Have some quiet dark time (low stimulation) - [ ] Everything shower + shave/eyebrows General tips/everyday: - [ ] Get enough sleep, plan ahead for bedtime - [ ] Wake up with enough time to have breakfast and feel ready for the day - [ ] Get sunlight when possible - [ ] Exercise a few times a week (move your body, pt/yoga/walk) - [ ] Always be drinking water - [ ] Connect with the world and with people, mindfulness Thanks for sharing I feel like this episode found me lol ❤

Maybe something like shimmering/glittering water? That’s what we say in Germany: schimmerndes/glitzerndes Wasser ✨🌅

[@amazingishgrace]

[@Hello_16-p2v]

Love, Love this podcast and you're list is almost exactly the same as mine! And what you said about the being active to release dopamine is amazing way to exit the cave of doom temporarily, and all my dark thoughts and ect are just fully blocked out and overtime depression gets so so so much easier to handle! Good Job again 🫶❤✨ Its superrr nice to be able to relate so much to someone 🫶 Thank you grace
