cravings masterpost
over the years, i have been taught what certain cravings mean and how i can replace them in a healthy way. so i figured, why not share it with you guys? 
if you crave chocolate…
your body needs magnesium. a quick fix for this is raw nuts and seeds, legumes, or fresh fruits. 
if you crave sweets…
your body might need some of the following: 
-chromium - have some broccoli, grapes, cheese, or chicken. 
-carbon - chow down on some fresh fruit. 
-phosphorus - chicken, eggs, legumes, or grains can help. 
-tryptophan - similar to magnesium, have some raw nuts and seeds, legumes, or fresh fruits. 
if you crave bread or toast… 
your body needs nitrogen. have some high protein foods such as fish, meat, nuts, or beans. 
if you crave fatty foods… 
your body needs calcium. broccoli, kale, legumes, or cheese help. 
if you crave alcohol… 
your body might need some of the following:
-protein - think seafood, dairy, or nuts. 
-avenin - chow down on some granola or oatmeal. 
-calcium - broccoli, kale, legumes, or cheese help.  
-potassium - bitter greens or seaweed usually do the trick. 
if you crave ice cream/shaved ice… 
your body needs iron. some suggestions are fish, greens, seaweed, or black cherries. 
if you crave burned or grilled food… 
your body needs carbon. chow down on some fresh fruits. 
if you crave soda and carbonated drinks… 
your body needs calcium.  broccoli, kale, legumes, or cheese help.
if you crave salty foods…
your body needs chloride. goat milk (yes i know that’s a little odd) and fish help. 
if you crave acid foods (burgers)… 
your body needs magnesium. just like chocolate, have some raw nuts and seeds, legumes, or fresh fruits. 
if you crave cool drinks (milkshakes or malts)… 
your body needs manganese. some suggestions are walnuts, pecans, almonds, pineapple, or blueberries. 
if you’re PMS-ing… 
your body needs zinc. red meat, seafood, leafy greens, and root vegetables are helpful. 
if you’re overeating… 
your body might need some of the following: 
-silicon - nuts and seeds are a quick fix. 
-tryptophan - eat some cheese, raisins, sweet potatoes, or spinach.
-tyrosine - vitamin c supplements should do the trick. 
if you crave tobacco…
your body might need some of the following: 
-silicon - nuts and seeds help, but stay away from refined starches. 
-tyrosine - vitamin c supplements or red, orange, or green fruits and veggies can help. 
disclaimer: i am not a health professional in any way, this is just advice i have been given over the years.

The worst part about having mental health issues is that you’re seemingly required to have a breakdown in order for people to understand how hard you were trying to hold yourself together.

Just a friendly reminder that the brain of those who have suffered trauma is physically different than a “normal brain”. Trauma and abuse has a severe, long-term psychological and neurological effect. This is why you have difficulty concentrating, why you have trouble sleeping, why you can’t seem to stay focused, why you cry at the drop of the hat, why you’re not satisfied with yourself, why you think everything is your fault, why you think you’re toxic, why you’re full of regret and you don’t know why.
And get this. When you experienced this trauma, no matter how long it happened or how many times, your brain instantaneously made judgments about the world, your sense of self, and others. This is why you’re paranoid. Why you trust no one. Why you perceive things to exist that aren’t true in reality. It’s why people say you’re crazy, over-dramatic, or too emotional.
You may not heal in a day, but know this: it is not your fault. Your brain is responding to trauma.

when its at its peak, you’re suddenly aware of the surroundings. but not any surroundings, not the normal ones, no. you’re aware of what might kill you, a flight of stairs that you can fall off and come on your head? you’re aware of that and you want it to kill you. cars? you want them to kill you. you want anything and everything to fucking kill you.

im depressed,
its taking over my body right now, i feel it ripping my heart but stopping just at the bottom, you can imagine it as a nail going in your skin but just staying there. constant hurt. thats it, im constantly hurting.
i dont feel like taking that nail out though; i dont feel like sewing my heart back. i feel like digging the nail more so it can just hide inside. i feel like ripping my heart all the way through. because getting it back together seems like too much effort and i dont have the energy for that now, ill save it for later.
my depression feels like doing nothing, just making things worse, my depression feels like destructing every last hope thats left in me. my depression feels like my worst enemy but it feels like my friend thats twisted and dark and stabs me in the back.
