My method of staying sane is way less complicated.
I am not unique or special. I am human. Ergo things that keep humans sane should work on me.
So I read up on mental health and then did those things. Sleep, nutrition, exercise, sunshine, make friends, community service, clean air.
It's likely I may still experience issues later in life. But all life is always temporary. It's about the now, appreciating this moment when I have a dog beside me and a snoring spouse and a wool blanket and a nice book.
I can only control what I can control.
I'm learning rock carving. Rocks are awesome and last through lots of disasters.
