After a great weekend drop has hit hard today and am struggling to manage my normal self care structures and routines.

Cuddles and chat with S have helped some, but still feel like I need something else, so figured I'd reach out and ask what others do...

What helps you when you drop after play? Do you have specific routines or actions that you do? Any affirmations or techniques that help you deal?

Sorry to read that OP, it can be really difficult when the drop hits.

For me I go back to basics - snuggling is good for replenishing depleted endorphins, nice food that you can really enjoy, a silly programme/film you can lose yourself in. Gentle yoga because it helps soothe my mind. I also remind myself that it will pass, frequently. It does sooner or later and it's okay to have those slumps. They don't need to be cured and are inevitable. Rest, relaxation and recuperation are good, as is reaching out to friends.

If I need to be productive I'll do a to do list, it helps keep me focused, I can feel a sense of accomplishment for getting through the list. Planning for future events can help you feel like you have things to look forward to and that's always a positive.

I hope it's not too bad for you OP, x
