  • self care and personal hygiene is something a lot of people struggling with mental illness have a hard time with. there's absolutely no shame in it and no one should feel embarrassed or ashamed for not being able to take of themselves during a hard time. i'm here to do it along with you and keep you company so that you don't feel alone and can have a distraction. its gonna be okay and were gonna get through this. :)

    My mom passed away a month ago, it was just the two of us against the world, no one else. Being alone all of a sudden, living alone in our home... made it incredibly difficult to do most tasks, since no one was there to keep me on track.
    I spent the first 10 days without leaving the bed, I didn't even eat, showering or brushing my teeth wasn't even on my mind. But things started to get better, very slowly. I realized that she would've wanted for me to be okay. To be happy and healthy. She was a dentist, and I remember that every night when I don't want to brush my teeth, and I force myself to do it. She would've been proud of that.
    I cry every day, I miss her every day, and that's okay. It's hard to think that I don't have a mom anymore. Hard to think she won't see me graduate, marry, have children, or silly things like she won't get to see how the seeds we planted last season bloom.
    But I have to keep going, for her, and for me. For us.
    I miss you, mom. I love you.

    1. MAKE YOUR BED!
    2. Pick up all green and blue items
    3. Pick up 10 random things. ANYTHING.
    4. Pick up anything red, pink, and purple.
    5. Pick up anything paper, trash, or food related.

      2. Pick up all trash and put in trash bag
      3. Pick up all dishes
      4. Pick up all clothes
      5. Start at door and move clockwise around room. If I I’m not able to put something away yet or I get analysis paralysis, I throw the item to the part I haven’t gotten to yet

      Yes, I grew up severely depressed, like from 11 years old on. I was maladaptive daydreaming and dissociating all the time so my hygiene wasn't the best. I remember being SUPER unwell in high school (I won't elaborate on that in case it's triggering for anyone) and someone sent me an anonymous Facebook message telling me I smelled and that everybody was talking about it. It just made my anxiety and depression worse and I ended up homeschooling until graduation. I'm not nearly at the level of depression I was back then and still think about that message whenever I take a shower. I'm hyperfixated on my body, if I smell, and if I go a day without doing so I feel disgusting. I say all of that to say, yes! It's so nice seeing people talk about this, not just Peach, but reading all of the comments from others who can relate

    I actually did everything with you, I was pretty hesitant to shower but you motivated me enough to get up and shower like I brushed my teeth with you and then went back to my bed and was like I really don't fuckin want to but I did and I even moisturized!! Which i never do even when I have literal dry patches on my face hahh so thank you so much!

    I'm sitting in my bath and letting the water fill the tub. I'm scared that my mf phone is gonna fall in any moment but its fineee. Thank you. Thank you so so much. Like a probably most of the people here, I haven't showered or bathed in a long time. Anxiety and ofc depression have taken a pretty big toll on me recently. I still live with my family so when my parent leaves the home for multiple days, my task is to do a bunch of chores in the days they are gone. We'll that's actually pretty bad that they're gone cause without the constant fear of disappointing them in the immediate moment, I have nothing to distract me from my very VERY crippling depression. I've haven't really left the bed for 3 days straight again and my muscles are sore. So once again. Thank you for giving me some kind of motivation to take a mf bath ♡

    That was so helpful. I have anxiety, adhd and depressions. It is 2 days before christmas and I got sick for the second time this december. I am so tired and burned out from university, which makes me a easy target for viruses. I slept many hours today and woke up still sick (my whole throat is infected and burning). I felt so gross, because I was supposed to shower yesterday, but couldn't and was sweaty because of the fewer I ran at night.
    Usually podcasts or music are enough to calm my shower anxiety, but after an anxiety attack last night I needed something like this. I typed in shower + depression and found this video. I followed the whole thing and feel so much better now.
    I truely love my body, but as you said, taking care of it can be so hard.
    I hope everybody who is reading this has a good day and knows, that it is okay to feel unwell. I see you.

    I wish I had this as a teenager. I got bullied alot at school because I never showered and would wear the same clothes over and over again. These clothes were really baggy on me too and my shoes were 2 sizes too big. So I got picked on alot for that as well. None of the kids realized how my parents and family were treating me at home, which is what lead to me being so dirty. I'm glad I am away from all of that now. I'm 26 now and very healthy. Please do not judge others who may resemble my old self. You don't know what they might be going through❤

      Just a tip or two (from someone who really struggled with it), set a timer for just 5, 10 or 15 minuters. I am often already done with it by the end but otherwise just stop!

Cos I think of it as it'd cleaning without me even having to move xx

    • @monicas2461
      @monicas2461 Před 2 lety +2

      I know it’s not good for the environment, but if it helps you feel less overwhelmed… lay plastic wrap over your plate, when you are finished just peel the wrap and throw it away. The plate will still be clean. We learn that for natural disaster emergency training. It’s a personal emergency when I’m in a dark place.
      It’s similar to the 5, 10, 15 minutes approach, but sometimes I will convince myself to wash only the cups. Sometimes I can wash the bowls too, sometimes I can wash everything. There are times I only wash the cups, but that’s nice too.

    Media (sometimes) likes to portray mental illness as this really cool and pretty thing, but it is not.
    It is not about being a little bit sad.
    It is literally so scary and hard to deal with.
    In my experience I learnt you can become physically ill as well if you don't take care of your mind.
    That is why I love the concept of selfcare. This way I can recover and also be there for my friends and family.
    I also feel like depression taught me things like gratitude and living day by day. (I try to make the best out of those dark days).

      Tbh I think finding a way to still manage ur hygiene while dealing with something like that is really good and it deserves respect no matter how unconventional it might be, I see it like any other disability or illness, lots of people need to bathe differently because of physical limitations and psychological limitations are just as serious so we shouldn't expect ourselves to take them less seriously just because other people don't get it, you're looking after yourself, that's all that matters

    Rather than self destructing, looking for helpful videos like these in itself is a step in the right direction.

    Hey, as someone with inattentive ADHD and depression, I find your videos SO helpful. It's really nice to know someone else struggles with doing basic things like getting out of bed, taking meds, and brushing their teeth consistently. I also love your style of motivation, like, it's so soft and chill, whenever I see other motivational videos they just make me shut down further because 1. they're going in with the assumption that you can already do things like getting out of bed and they make it sound so easy. and 2. they make me feel like I'm already failing at life, and yeah, maybe I am, but these videos make me feel so valid and take into account the struggle of getting out of bed and taking showers. So thanks, you're doing great, I think you're really filling a gap for gentle motivational videos catered to people who are having a hard time and need something softer.
