18 Sept – Comfort Food

Tell us about your comfort foods.

 

I bet you’re all expecting me to say cake, right? Wrong. Truth be told my ultimate comfort foods would be a pot of tea and copious amounts of toast.

May 28 – Happy Food

Which food makes you feel happy when you eat it?

 
I think that there are a few different types of foods that make me feel happy when I eat them, I think it just comes down to what my emotional state is.
But I think that the number one food that truly makes me happy… is cake.

May 22 – Nourishment

What do you do to nourish your soul when you feel emotionally depleted?

 
Emotional depletion can come as a result of so many different contributing factors, and for me, it’s generally because I tend to live inside my head, and keep my true feelings to myself all the time. I will make sure that at certain times I will make it clear if I’m upset or angry so that people don’t keep testing my patience and make me completely flip out into some kind of blinding rage, but even then, I don’t actually verbalise what my true feelings are. This is why I find myself just wanting to go to sleep a lot or alternatively, silently cry to myself sitting on the floor of the bath.

Yes, I’m fully aware that it’s completely unhealthy, but I also realise that it’s so undeniably draining on the body (and the soul).

It’s during these moments where I literally will go and sleep to physically replenish the body, but it’s also during this time that I think in depth about different things that I can and want to write about. For me, writing is quite therapeutic, and something that I still haven’t managed to get into a regular habit of doing. But I really should make more of an effort!

Some people turn to comfort food, some people turn to watching sad movies so they can have a good cry and get it out of their system… I just want to write.
