As the title says, what are your usual ways to deal with acute phases of dysphoria. For me its currently either going to sleep, weed, or trying to do something different so I dont feel like a complete piece of shit and just feel shit a little bit instead.

    I try to drown out the dysphoria by alcohol and just heavy doses of disassociation. Not helpful but its one way to cope, I guess?

      I knew two gals who did just this and ended up burning out so hard it almost killed them. So you know, try and be careful. Cause it really isn’t worth it. I think there’s like…healthier ways. I mean the disassociation I’ve go no advice on, but the alcohol - that’s the one I am talking about.
