Some people from Time To Change accosted me on campus for world mental day to try to force feed me brownies and get me to fill in a sheet about mindapples, and now I'm asking you good folk of RYL (about mindapples, I'm afraid I have no brownies to offer!)
Here's what it said on the 'apple' I was given:
Quote:
What's the 5-a-day for your mind?
We all know how to take care of our bodies, but what about our minds?
A mindapple is anything we do that's good for our minds, from going dancing to having a nice cup of tea. We want to know what works for you. What are your five mindapples?
Mine are probably:
1. Cookies!
2. Keeping my mind fit by doing something intellectual
3. Making time for relaxation
4. Getting enough sleep
5. Hugs!
1) A good long sleep
2) A nice cup of tea
3) A nice meal out with good wine ;-p
4) Certain films e.g most Disney, Stepmom, Love Actually etc.
5) Comedy e.g House, Big Bang Theory, Friends and so on.
'Never forget what you are. The rest of the world will not. Wear it like armor, and it can never be used to hurt you.'

1. Reading
2. Enough to eat
3. Spending time relaxing
4. Chatting with the girlfriend on Facebook or Skype (since we rarely get to meet up)
5. Playing videogames
Time To Change accosted me on campus for world mental day
Gotta love world mental day....
Imagine a day where everyone went mental?!
Mine are:
1) My yummy nommable girlfriend [Or for a none soppy one: Board games/comedy shows]
2) My friends/family ad the good memories
3) Tea
4) My pets
5) And then either my course, or acting! BOTH
1) Reading my favourite textbooks
2) Exercise, being: kickboxing, cross-country running, gym, weightlifting
3) Taking time for myself
4) Telling people if I am having a problem
5) Train maps!
PM me if you want a PDF copy of the ICD-10or the Mental Health Act 1983/2007. I ALSO HAVE THE DSM-V BOOK and am a pharmacology student.
I have a visual impairment / neurological problems so I need people to type in clear text and no funny fonts. Also excuse any typos, my vision blocks things out.
I have autism and have problems communicating, PMs included.
Just becasue I type well doesn't mean I speak well. I am only part time verbal.
1. Sleeep
2. A decent dose of Ellen
3. Catching up on comedy in general
4. Chocolate
5. Reviewing positives of the day and remembering the things I'm thankful for
Really like this idea
The only time you will find real light is when you're searching in the dark..
Mine are (Sorry I had to do 6, couldn't cope with just 5):
1. My sister visiting and staying over at mine.
2. Getting the sketchbooks out and scribbling out ideas.
3. Finishing a piece of art work.
4. Seeing my friend.
5. Curling up in front of the TV with a cup of tea (or cold beer or glass of wine).
6. Having finished tidying my flat. The process can be a struggle, but I do feel better afterwards because I'm that cool.
1. A cuddle, preferably a long one with the lady.
2. Time with my guinea pigs.
3. Creativity; drawing, Mehndi, Mehndi designs, tattooing.
4. Rest time with an interesting or funny thing to watch.
5. Self massage/physio stuff to keep pain levels manageable always helps.
Legit going to make a huge effort to do all these things daily.
Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.
