Mental Health To-Do List For 2023
This year has had its ups and downs for me. My mental health has also had its ups and downs. I went back to therapy and it’s really been helping. But I still have some tough days occasionally. As I always say, mental health problems never really go away for most people. It’s something you have to constantly stay on top of. And that’s what I thought I would create a mental health to-do list for 2023 to help me stay on top of my mental health. And hopefully it will help others out there trying to do the same. If you’re one of those people feel free to use this list as a guide or even just to use it as it is.
Know Your Triggers And How To Handle Them
I was talking to a fellow blogger and about this since she had written this post about triggers. I’ve found that it’s extremely important to know your triggers and how to deal with them. This can save so much time and energy and can really help your mental health. I would recommend writing them down and then seeing how you can best deal with them. This is something I’m working on with my therapies that has helped me a lot with my mental health.
Live A Healthy Lifestyle
I’ve noticed that my mental health is at its best when I’m at my best. Having a healthy lifestyle helps keep you at your best and can do wonders for mental health. Recently, I have been trying to eat healthier, sleep better and do at least some exercise everyday even if it’s just taking a little walk. Yoga and meditation are also super beneficial. Having a healthy lifestyle is one thing I really want to stick with in 2023.
Do What Makes You Happy
Another mental health goal I have for 2023 is that I want to do more things that I enjoy or that make me happy. I started working full-time for the first time this year. And as fun has that has been I also feel like I was sort of putting too much time into working. I want to spend a bit more time relaxing next year. For example, I have a very long TBR list that I want to work on in 2023. I also want to work on my art more. I had promised myself that I would create two canvas paintings this year but didn’t do any.
Cut Out The Toxicity
I want to do more things that make me happy and less of what makes me unhappy. That means cutting out toxic people, things, behaviours etc. I’m not saying that I’l be pooping rainbows and butterflies all year. I’m sure there will be some toxicity in 2023 but I’ll try my best to avoid it when possible. I’m not a fan of toxic positivity either so it’s not just negative toxic behaviour that I will be cutting out.
Try New Things
I really want to try more new things next year! I want to dye my hair, learn to play guitar better, go out more, eat new foods, make new dishes and more. Life is short and I don’t want it to fly by without me ever doing anything in my life.
Conclusion
So this is my little mental health to-do list for 2023. I thought I would blog about it to help me stick with it. And in case it helps anyone else out there trying to improve their mental health.
