How do you recharge when you're emotionally drained?

Nature. Nature. Nature and animals. Plus I stay away from social media and often go stoic for self preservation.

I avoid social media like the plauge and dive in to the fictional world of TV shows and mute my phone from texts and notifications so that no one can reach me in my recharge bubble. I also visit people who have pets as they always recharge me.

Honestly I isolate myself.

Definitely not the greatest thing for my relationships and friendships.

But as an empath there really are times when nothing else really helps.

I used to wait it out but now it's become my default settings

I isolate myself esp from family bc I easily get drained just by interacting with them

I hope youre doing ok over there

Sleeping, playing with plants, spending time with dogs, reading about subjects I enjoy, going for a walk and just observing

I isolate from others
Forced interactions are draining for me

Get yourself into nature. Keep your phone in your bag and just hike somewhere. Works every time.

Solitude. I’ll read something light, crochet. Something I don’t have to use my brain for. If it too bad, I see my therapist.

Idk I only ever get back to like 30%

I just sleep. Then i dont think or feel anything. Some days i hate waking up

Sleep

idk. crying helps for me 🫠

I just isolate from friends. I do t want to be around anyone but my kids.

Some horrible physical exertion. Nothing takes my mind off psychological or emotional stuff like something physically exhausting and painful.
