[quote=Anonymous]Lots of good advice here. How is your own self-care routine? Here are some things that are essential for me: - adequate restful uninterrupted sleep - frequent small meals or snacks with protein and fiber (helps steady blood sugar and reduce "hangry" potential - both for me and DC) - exercise - walking outdoors in the sunshine; even 10 minutes helps - singing along to happy music; truly self-care for me These things make me less reactive to DC and more able to maintain equanimity. You might find it helpful to look at your own routines and see where you can take better care of yourself. It's important to be good to yourself. Good luck![/quote]
