Why "doing something relaxing” does not help your anxiety

A lot of the time when people give advice intended to relieve anxiety, they suggest doing “relaxing” things like drawing, painting, knitting, taking a bubble bath, coloring in one of those zen coloring books, or watching glitter settle to the bottom of a jar.

This advice is always well-intentioned, and I’m not here to diss people who either give it or who benefit from it. But it has never, ever done shit for me, and this is because it goes about resolving anxiety in the completely wrong way.  

THE WORST THING YOU CAN DO when suffering from anxiety is to do a “relaxing” thing that just enables your mind to dwell and obsess more on the thing that’s bothering you. You need to ESCAPE from the dwelling and the obsession in order to experience relief.

You can drive to a quiet farm, drive to the beach, drive to a park, or anywhere else, but as someone who has tried it all many, many times, trust me–it’s a waste of gas. You will just end up still sad and stressed, only with sand on your butt. You can’t physically escape your sadness. Your sadness is inside of you. To escape, you need to give your brain something to play with for a while until you can approach the issue with a healthier frame of mind. 

People who have anxiety do not need more time to contemplate, because we will use it to contemplate how much we suck.

In fact, you could say that’s what anxiety is–hyper-contemplating. When we let our minds run free, they run straight into the thorn bushes. Our minds are already running, and they need to be controlled. They need to be given something to do, or they’ll destroy everything, just like an overactive husky dog ripping up all the furniture. 

Therefore, I present to you: 

THINGS YOU SHOULD NOT DO WHEN ANXIOUS

–Go on a walk

–Watch a sunset, watch fish in an aquarium, watch glitter, etc.

–Go anywhere where the main activity is sitting and watching

–Draw, color, do anything that occupies the hands and not the mind

–Do yoga, jog, go fishing, or anything that lets you mentally drift 

–Do literally ANYTHING that gives you great amounts of mental space to obsess and dwell on things.

THINGS YOU SHOULD DO WHEN ANXIOUS:

–Do a crossword puzzle, Sudoku, or any other mind teaser game. Crosswords are the best.

–Write something. It doesn’t have to be a masterpiece. Write the Top 10 Best Restaurants in My City. Rank celebrities according to Best Smile. Write some dumb Legolas fanfiction and rip it up when you’re done. It’s not for publication, it’s a relief exercise that only you will see. 

–Read something, watch TV, or watch a movie–as long as it’s engrossing. Don’t watch anything which you can run as background noise (like, off the top of my head, Say Yes to The Dress.) As weird as it seems, American Horror Story actually helps me a lot, because it sucks me in. 

–Masturbate. Yes, I’m serious. Your mind has to concentrate on the mini-movie it’s running. It can’t run Sexy Titillating Things and All The Things That are Bothering Me at the same time. (…I hope. If it can, then…ignore this one.) 

–Do math problems—literally, google “algebra problems worksheet” and solve them. If you haven’t done math since 7th grade this will really help you. I don’t mean with math, I mean with the anxiety. 

–Play a game or a sport with someone that requires great mental concentration. Working with 5 people to get a ball over a net is a challenge which will require your brain to turn off the Sadness Channel. 

–Play a video game, as long as it’s not something like candy crush or Tetris that’s mindless. 

THINGS YOU SHOULD DO DURING PANIC ATTACKS ESPECIALLY:

–List the capitals of all the U.S. states

–List the capitals of all the European countries

–List all the shapes you can see. Or all the colors. 

–List all the blonde celebrities you can think of.

–Pull up a random block of text and count all the As in it, or Es or whatever.  

Now obviously, I am not a doctor. I am just an anxious person who has tried almost everything to help myself.  I’ve finally realized that the stuff people recommend never works because this is a disorder that thrives on free time and free mental space. When I do the stuff I listed above, I can breathe again. And I hope it helps someone here too. 

(Now this shouldn’t have to be said but if the “do nots” work for you then by all means do them. They’ve just never worked for me.)

HE IS A PRINCESS!!! 

i found this picture on reddit

if he got his passport may 2016 that means cacw should have taken place then, right?? so he was 14 during civil war

we all know hoco screwed up the timeline and the decathlon was either in sept or oct meaning hoco took place 4-5 months after cw, not 2. so peter is 15 in homecoming like he said

idk where i was going with this post but wow smol 14 year old peter in cw

let 👏 bisexual 👏 girls 👏 love 👏 boys

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to not be involved with fandoms and boy do I feel sorry for those who don’t know the joys of staying up all night reading fanfics

Do you know of any other angsty starker fics I just finished And So We Spiral and I'm heartbroken......... and I need more

Hi anon! I too was heartbroken by And So We Spiral ending, but mostly because the fic was done and I really enjoyed it. 

I’m not sure if the word angsty really works for these fics, but they are all great starker fics and there’s some angst? sorta? kinda? 

A Private Affair by DaScribbla (this one is a completed one-shot and is really amazing, actually I think this is the same author as And So We Spiral so yeah it’s definitely good!)

I’m Such a Fool for Sacrifice Series by Gunboots (this one was written pre-homecoming so if you were looking something post-homecoming, I got more of those laying around my ao3 bookmarks). 

His Gift by PoseyRedfield (this one is still ongoing and it’s really good, like really good and I can’t wait for it to update again). 

Oh, What a Tangled Web We Weave by Siddal (this one was written pre-homecoming and updated post-homecoming, it’s short but really good and I am not sure if it’s a wip or discontinued or not).

We Choose Our Own Path by Death_inspiresme (another amazing fic! It’s short too but not as old as the previous fic so there’s hope yet for an update).

Hope this helped anon! I completely believe that there should be many more starker fics out there! I want to write one but I have negative zero ideas sadly. Anyway, have fun reading! 

Bless every single person that writes ff, you are a miracle.

reblog for yanan’s cute “my baby” in shine

Probably the stupidest thing I’ve seen today is that “Tony Stark is for the straights” post so reblog this if you’re gay and you love Tony Stark

leaked Avengers 4 ending 

“Thanos didn’t just destroy half of the universe, he destroyed their whole world.”

Writers as Marvel Characters

Steve Rogers: Diligent. Politically, scientifically, anatomically, emotionally correct. Posts on time. Sticks to the schedule and their own well-mapped-out-and-classic-plot. Actually enjoys constructive criticism because it will help them improve but has been known to reply with, “Well, actually...” Always trying to help. Annoying but has good intentions. 

Bucky Barnes: A writing machine in Winter Mission Mode when a plot idea takes over their minds. In between missions they are lost and shopping for plums in a Romanian farmer’s market. Has moments where they can’t remember how to write themselves out of writostasis. Easily triggered by words. Eternal Internal Screaming. Made a grave mistake letting Steve Rogers beta their stories. Might be a mess. Might need rehab. 

Tony Stark: Intelligent and knows it. Clearly educated, knows synonyms and metaphors without needing to look them up. Writes elaborate, scientifically correct stories. Reads up on thermonuclear physics just for fun research. Has an explanation for literally everything. Has a literary device for every plot hole. Obnoxious but when you need to read something reliably good, they deliver. Exhausted by constantly trying to prove and improve themselves. Sometimes forgets how to human. Wants to give advice that nobody asked for. Hard to like until you get to know them. Is a little lonely maybe.

Peter Parker: New kid on the scene. Wants to be liked. Writes A LOT. Posts A LOT. Wants A LOT of comments. Uses a lot of =))))))))) in the writer notes. Latches onto senior writers and wants to be in a clique. Often shoot their loads prematurely. Frequently gets some very good plot ideas but currently lacking the perfect execution. Gets stuck in their own web of plot holes. 

Loki: Professional shit-stirrer of the fandom. You’re never sure if they’re your friend or not. Spends more time being contrary than actually writing. Sometimes leaves stories with cliffhangers that never reach a conclusion. Deliberately writes NOTPs just for fun. Needs constant validation from an audience. Is actually quite talented if they bothered to focus their energy on writing and not bickering. Just wants to be liked (on the down low.) 

Wanda Maximoff: Might be a hack. Might be a genius. Has tapped into The Power of Knowledge but doesn’t actually know how to harness it into a coherent story. Flashes of brilliance followed swiftly but flashes of despair and self-loathing. Powerful but poor discipline. Likely to destroy and delete their stories on a whim because some words don’t look right or their aim was slightly off that day. Notorious for abandoning ideas and leaving a trail of incomplete stories in their wake. 

Thanos: Trigger Warning-Character Death. A total sadist. The writers you get a little worried about. 

Peter Quill: Hilarious. Jokes every two sentences. Pop culture references and always puts soundtrack links in their author notes. A gift for natural dialogue and conversations. Doesn’t get taken seriously because of the lack of drama in their stories but secretly writing humour in order to deal with underlying traumas of their past. One day will write a heartbreaking story and play it off as a joke. 

Wade Wilson: PWP Crack writers. R-rated. Anatomically graphic. Sometimes the realism is a touch too real. 50% hilarious. 50% makes-you-uncomfortable. Might have emotional range and depth but often chooses not to show it. Probably mentions pizza, beer and mexican food in their stories. A Good Bro but needs a Mute-Button and thesaurus sometimes. 

Natasha Romanoff: Better than you and you both know it. Gives off an air of superiority. Super clique-y but they also keep themselves at a distance. Good at literally every genre and writing style. Leaves no plot holes behind, ever. All stories are clean headshots with neat conclusions. Their plot twists have plot twists. Either they’ve done extensive research or they’ve actually been an assassin. The type of author you’re intimidated by and too scared to talk to. 

Thor: Never Say Die Writers. Hammers out story after story. Will write themselves to God Status, no matter what it takes. Will shed blood, sweat, tears, an eye, a sibling…to achieve their goals. Honourable and respects other writers. They’ve got hustle and you can’t help but like them. 

T’Challa: Feels heavily burdened by the Fandom Crown after writing one of the most badass Iconic stories of the century. Fucks off to Wakanda so you never hear from them again. It would take a Fandom Apocalypse to get them to come back. Constructs sentences so advanced that it makes you want to retire from your own writing. Infuriatingly cool. Is benevolent but doesn’t need hits and comments for validation. Gets them anyway, without even trying. 

Stephen Strange: A literal wizard at world building. Known for their elaborate plots and multi-tiered-multi-character-multi-chapter stories. Cradle-To-The-Grave-type writers. Doesn’t believe in One-Shots. One-Shots are for the weak. Way too indulgent with language and minute details. Probably knows Latin. Often competes with Tony Stark writers for title of “Most Obnoxiously Complex Story Ever”. Frequently exhausting. Takes writing a little too seriously. Annoying but worth it.  

Bruce Banner: Dramatic. The definition of “well that escalated quickly”. Will start off writing an endearingly small and clever story but all hell breaks loose by chapter three. Suddenly there is a lot of shouting and misunderstandings and chapters that read like glorified keyboard smashes. Everyone suffers. You don’t know what happened. Nobody knows what happened. Not even the writer. PTSD. 

Clint Barton: 90% Sarcasm. 10% Plot. The master of the One-Shot because that’s all they need. Doesn’t believe in time wasting, indulgent flowery language and poetic confessions. Writes to get it out of their system so they can go back to their actual real lives. Secretly eye-rolls at Stephen Strange writers but also awed by them. Doesn’t know what a beta is. 

Groot: The Holy Grail Of All Writers. Straight up literature. Can condense an entire paragraph into three words. Will write devastation and break your heart within the first five lines. Understands language in a way that most mere mortals can’t hope to achieve in one lifetime. The writer you bookmark and remember. Fandom famous. Universally loved. 

Part II

The Avengers Alphabet😂😂

Hey I did a thing be proud of me.

Avengers ships and how they fared in Infinity War

1. Stucky (Steve Rogers / Bucky Barnes): They reunite, smile, fight alongside each other, then Cap has to watch his true love disintegrate before his heartbroken eyes. No open romance (no surprise there, Disney), but at least they got ‘the look’.  5/10

2. Stony (Steve Rogers / Tony Stark): They never meet. They spend most of the film on separate planets. They still aren’t talking, and refer to each other only in brief, melancholy, what-could-have-been moments. Overall, not looking good. 1/10

3. Clintasha (Clint Barton / Natasha Romanoff): Hawkeye isn’t even in the film, and no-one really seems to notice. 0/10

4. Pepperony (Pepper Potts / Tony Stark): Tony proposes to Pepper, so in a way this ship hit the jackpot in Infinity War, and there are even rumours of pregnancy in the next Avengers film. But could Iron Man’s new found love for Doctor Strange throw a spanner in the works? Probably not. 9/10

5. Thorki (Thor / Loki): SPOILER ALERT Loki dies in the first few minutes of the film. Trying to save the life of Thor, which is very romantic, but still. Ship over. Unless….. 5/10*

6. Brutasha (Bruce Banner / Black Widow): Hopes (fears?) that the badly written but potentially interesting relationship between Bruce and Natasha would be developed further were firmly dashed in Infinity War, where they reunited after years apart with nothing more than a knowing look. Still, a look is better than nothing, and they are at least both still alive. 3/10

I know this photo just shows Banner, by the way. That is because I love Banner. Sue me.

7. T’Chakia (T’Challa / Nakia): For NO GOOD REASON, Nakia, possibly the most beautiful woman in the world as well as a complete badass, is not in Infinity War at all. And T’Challa gets dusted. Boo. 0/10

8. Starmora (Peter Quill and Gamora): After a brief threat from Thor is seen off, Peter Quill gets the chance to prove his love for Gamora in Infinity War, and he steps up, although in the end he can neither kill her nor save her. His grief for Gamora leads him to ruin the plan and he is arguably responsible for the deaths of half the people in the universe, including himself. Can you get more romantic than that? 8/10

9. Scarletvision (Vision and Wanda): These two start Infinity War as a proper, loved up couple, but, sadly, end it dead. Wanda’s love for Vision dooms the universe, as she waits too long to destroy the Infinity Stone that is part of him. It’s like Romeo and Juliet, except with the lovers being killed by a giant purple psychopath instead of poison. 8/10

And the new kid on the block:

10. Ironstrange (Tony Stark and Stephen Strange): These two meet, bicker, flirt, and slowly grow to understand each other over the course of Infinity War. They adopt Peter Parker as their sort-of-son. Then Doctor Strange hands over an Infinity Stone to save Tony’s life, and gets dusted himself. Beautiful. 6/10 

*Due to popular demand, and convincing arguments about the romance of their final scene together, Thorki has been upgraded to 5/10.
