What is your self-care routine? How do you treat yourself when you have a free day and had a hard week?

Honestly I need like
A better one
I talk to friends and play videogames
Or listen to music

I don't really have one but if I were to describe what would be peak me is watching Stargate in the background while reading a random book and eating a lasagna with a tiramisu for desert.

cw: alc mention

haha, funny joke...
but srs, i should probably get one though, huh?

and not the healthiest ways tbh, typically a couple more drinks than i probably should, maybe have some sweets if i'm feeling really indulgent, and just doing whatever else to not think about work, typically browsing fedi or talking to cuties

i mean besides trying to get more comfort time with wife i kinda dont do anything? maybe if i'm not feeling too agoraphobic ill go out to a cafe at the weekend or something but if ive been really busy i have a tendency to want to stay inside once the pressures off. i guess i also tend to make very bad financial decisions but i need to stop doing that tbh

sleep, reading, hiking, playing games, friends. idk depends on the mood and the weather and what my brain is motivated to do

Self care? None :)
Treat? I flop into bed or into chair and either watch YouTube or twitch or read. Sometimes also just don't do anything :)
