For me personally, it’s fragrances. I’m currently using an orange-scented room fragrance! I also love perfumes, body mists, and scented body lotions. In fact, wearing perfume has become a little part of my daily routine.

Also, after experiencing psychosis this summer, I found myself thinking about what could bring me a sense of peace or even make me feel special again. That might sound a little strange (because I felt extremely special during psychosis), but I wanted to reconnect with my sense of self and feel like myself again. And pleasant scents seem to help me with that, at least to some extent.

Other than hanging out by the trailers and watching the bug zapper, I enjoy listening to the radio and taking care of my cat.

Reading a good story helps to direct my mind in a structured way and keeps me grounded.

And listening to music and just hearing expressions of the human mind.

I would also say seeing/making someone laugh or smile
