RE: A shitty day, living with mental illness
Hi, Thanks for sharing! Have you tried meditation? Or exercise to help relieve your symptoms?

Hi! That was a big part of the ADHD for adults I attended. I have also attended DBT, which is a form of behavior therapy specifically for people with borderline and related issues. Meditation is a part of that as well, together with grounding exercises, focus training and also to have a safe space in your head when you need to relieve a stressful situation like a crowded are for example.
These are things I practice everyday, but the first thing our instructors said to us was: "this is not an insta-cure. These are tools that you will practice for the rest of your lives." It helps, but not enough, and definitely not yet. :)
Thank you for your response though! :D
