Being a functional adult means taking care of your mind and body. selfcare
defines self-care as “any activity that we do deliberately in order to take care of our mental, emotional, and physical health,” which means that, like it or not, self-care is literally for everyone who wants to move through life feeling marginally OK. The thing about taking adult steps towards self-care is that you’re going to become an adult either way. It’s just up to you to decide whether you want to be well-rested and well-adjusted, or...not.
There’s no magic jump cut from “McDonalds rocks, sleeping sucks!” teenager to fully grown, self-actualized hot yoga attendee. That’s not how works. Instead, I’m of the opinion that everyone has a watershed moment with self-care, when the benefits of implementing some kind of practice finally outweigh the trepidation surrounding it.
F*ck, I've got to actually start checking in and taking care of myself. I'm of no use or help to anyone if I can't even survive a Tube ride without bursting into tears. We throw the phrase “self-care” around a lot, I think, often using it to either justify over-indulgent behavior or excuse ourselves from caring for others. But I’ve definitely found that I’m a more productive employee and supportive, reliable friend when I’m feeling healthy and stable. And—counterintuitive as it seems—I think limiting my social and professional commitments is helping me get there.
