Moods

I’ve had a lot of time to get familiar with when my mood has dropped.

This has meant I don’t make more meaning out of the drop, which means I suffer less, even in the face of grief.

Here are 6 indicators of a drop (from Dr. Bill Pettit) that may be personal or universal.

Let’s see if you recognise them for you too.

Signs of a mood drop/drop in consciousness:

1) Seriousness instead of lightheartedness

2) Anxiety or more anxious than normal

3) Tension, pain beginning to express in the body

4) Low-quality thoughts about myself and other people

5) Old habits emerging, compulsion to seek relief

6) Poor communication with others, leading to stressful relationships

It is super helpful to catch your signs of a drop. It makes for a more graceful experience of life where you’re not constantly cleaning up personal relationships and you’re not frequently having to put out fires.

Do you know your signs or recognise yourself in these? 💗
