Depression, anxiety, stress, anger P.T.S.D. What are your coping mechanisms?

nature can be so peaceful. I often find when I feel really really low I just go feed ducks. They don't judge, they don't do anything wrong. they just lovingly come and gobble everything you offer them. One time I even got one to let me pet it. XD That's some serious emotional healing lol. I enjoy the intensity of walking in the cold. One of the reasons I like winter. It just feels so calming of a sensation to have the chill hit you. It is weird but yeah.

Yes, I like to be embraced by the cold.

This would be a wonderful day. I love feeding ducks too.

My cats actually help me a lot for similar reasons as Red described with the ducks. I can become a cat with them and be very in the moment. My cats are also crazy about me, except the black short hair doesn't like kisses on the nose. Animals make more sense to me than people, so they are healing and helpful for all the pain caused by people and just life in general with sickness and other forms of suffering.
