Here's the thing, When you've been sad for a really long time, that then starts to become your default and you forget that you have the capacity to be happy.And you start to push away all of the happy and the happy moments because they scare you and you decide that the happy isn't going to last anyway so what's the point in the little bit that you're going to get.It's really easy to become comfortable in your sadness and fall into the decision that you're just going to be sad because there are no other options. you owe it to yourself to try. and if you think you don't that's the 2+2=5 talking and we all know that 2+2 actually = 4 and fuck anyone who tells you otherwise <3Cali instagram: @canyoubquietimcrying buy me a coffee! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/caliweiss

the gym... you either love it or you hate it something that a lot of people forget is: moving your body is so important for your mental health. moving your body releases happy chemicals called endorphins which can help boost your mood and increase your energybut when people think about moving their bodies, they think about going to the gym, doing super intense workouts, lifting really heavy, and constantly being sore. you don't need to do all of that in order to reap the benefits of working out working out can be as simple as going for a 10 minute walk every morning. working out can be doing some relaxing yoga. working out can be anything that gets you moving that you enjoyi think it is important, especially for people who struggle with mental health conditions, to look at working out as part of your self care instead of this super scary intense thing that you have to do every dayif you don't enjoy it, find something else. working out should be whatever you want to make of it not what everyone else is doing <3Cali instagram: @canyoubquietimcrying buy me a coffee! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/caliweiss

I'm going to be totally honest this episode needs to go up in 2 minutes and I have no idea what to write in the show notes...dating apps suck... <3Cali instagram: @canyoubquietimcrying buy me a coffee! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/caliweiss

Having low self esteem and a low sense of self worth is something a lot of people who struggle with mental health struggle with which makes sense because a lot of mental health struggles come from traumaand if everyone in your life is telling you shit like "you're not good enough", "you're not trying hard enough", "you're best isn't good enough" etc... you're going to start to believe it because people are constantly reinforcing that in your headbut the people who choose to not see how hard you are trying and the people who choose to not believe that your best is your best... can fuck offif your best that day is getting out of bed, then that is absolutely good enough it takes a long time to learn how to stop putting so much weight on what other people think of you and it takes a long time to unlearn all of these false perspectives people have been reinforcing in you your entire lifebut you are worth it and you deserve to be able to feel good about yourself and to be able to feel confident in yourself and to be able to love the person you see in the mirror it's hard work and a lot of that time, that work leaves you in tears. but remember:every time you take a step in bettering yourself, you're one step closer to healing. also remember that bad days do not diminish progress. bad days just mean that your body and mind just need a little extra care, and giving that care to yourself is a step forward as well.love you guys,<3Cali instagram: @canyoubquietimcrying buy me a coffee! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/caliweiss

All I wanted was to have a peaceful Thanksgiving. Spend time with my family, re-charge, figure out what the fuck I'm doing with my life, and catch up on all the homework I didn't do so I wouldn't fail two of my classes ( i did not catch up on homework but I also did not fail )I feel like that's not a lot to ask. I feel like that seems pretty reasonable.But, of course, what did I come to find on Thanksgiving? A man. In my DM's. With the inability to take a fucking hint.Quick note...There is a right and a wrong way to slide into DM's. Here are a few ground rules for DM sliders:1) NO MEANS NO2) Do not send any pictures (of any kind) without the other person saying "yes". "ok", "I guess" and "sure" DO NOT COUNT AS A YES3) Maybe just don'tIf you are the DM slidee, here are a few tips and tricks:1) block2) throw your phone down the garbage disposal3) call 9114) block5) block and call 911<3Caliinstagram: @canyoubquietimcryingbuy me a coffee! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/caliweiss

*TRIGGER WARNING*This episode contains sensitive language and topics about mental health including talk about suicide and self harm. If this language and these topics are sensitive for you it might be a good idea to skip this episode.I think depression is one of the hardest things to deal with because it genuinely sucks the life out of you. It sucks you into this false reality and then makes it feel almost impossible to escape. It brings you into an incredibly dark, scary place and gives you no hope to escape.In this episode I talk a lot about my experience with depression and how it has affected me, particularly over the past couple of years. I also talk about ways in which you can try to pull yourself out of the depression reality and bring yourself back to life.This is a very sensitive episode and I hope my story and the things I've done to try to overcome it inspire you or a loved one to reach out for help and start your healing journey.Some resources for you all:911National Suicide Prevention Hotline: call or text 988Behavioral Health Network: call 413-733-6661The National Mental Health Hotline: call 1-866-903-3787Crisis text line: text 'HOME' to 741741My DM's are always openCYBQIC IG: @canyoubquietimcrying<3Cali

2022 seemed like a really good year for a lot of people so I'm thinking the universe has it out for me because 2022 sucked. Maybe I just have it out for myself because looking back there were a lot of things the universe was throwing my way that I was ignoring because I thought I was meant to struggle. But I want to take all of those things that I was ignoring and start learning them in 2023 because after a while, the whole being sad thing gets old and you start wanting to feel better. I want to feel better!In this episode I talk about letting go, setting boundaries, spending time alone, and how actions are more important than promises.Even though I talk about having 0 hopes and expectations for 2023, I just hope this year is better to me and all of you than 2022 was. Unless 2022 was fantastic to you then you got lucky and I probably don't like you (just kidding ;) )If you liked this episode please share it with someone you love and come back next week for more! And in the meantime, if you don't mind... Can you be quiet, I'm crying!<3Caliinstagram: @canyoubquietimcryingbuy me a coffee! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/caliweiss
