I was just wondering, what do you guys do to decompress? I had a lousy week and the weekend didn't go very well, very open to suggestions #askTheFediverse
@lopeztel - I had to ponder for a bit, because I'm not often in that situation. I don't waste time with females, so life has become much simpler. 
But no one is entirely immune to shit happening.
When I'm feeling down, I like to work in the garden, personally. Alternatively, I find art (painting, drawing, making music) will also take my mind off of it.
Of course, if things are truly awful - like a heartbreak, or someone died... You have to feel the pain. You must, but there are ways to 
@lopeztel - set a manageable pace.
For when you're trying to sleep, and your mind won't let you... I suggest a soothing video about something unrelated. Personally, I enjoy falling asleep to this channel:

If things are truly bad, and some form external assistance is required, I recommend "lion's mane" mushroom supplements (available on Amazon for a reasonable price). It won't do anything crazy - no high, no tripping.
@YoMomz I appreciate you taking the time on this, thanks a lot. I usually go for ASMR random noises, will give this a try
