Tips for self care may help with depression This was shared by a trusted friend on social media. An internet check has it coming in pieces from multiple sources. It's shared here as it sounds like pretty good common sense self care. -- LW Shower. Not a bath, a shower. Use water as hot or cold as you like. You don't even need to wash. Just get in under the water and let it run over you for a while. Sit on the floor if you need to. Moisturize everything. Use whatever lotion you like. Unscented? Dollar store lotion? Fancy 48 hour lotion that makes you smell like a field of wildflowers? Use whatever you want, and use it all over your entire skin. Put on clean, comfortable clothes. Put on your favorite underwear.
