我的解压方式

字幕原文

For the longest time, 很长一段时间里，

I thought relaxing meant lying 我一直以为放松就是

on the couch scrolling my phone for hours. 躺在沙发上刷几个小时的手机。

But I'd get up feeling more tired and empty than before. 但每次起身，反而觉得比之前更累、更空虚。

So I started paying attention to what actually made me feel rested. 所以我开始去留意，到底什么才能让我真正得到休息。

And it surprised me. 结果让我挺意外的。

It wasn't the screen. 根本不是对着屏幕。

It was small, boring things. 而是一些琐碎、甚至有点无聊的小事。

Washing the dishes slowly. 比如慢条斯理地洗个碗，

Watering my plants. 给绿植浇浇水，

Cooking something simple with music on. 或者放着音乐，做顿简简单单的饭。

Anything that used my hands and quieted my head. 只要是能动动手、让脑子安静下来的事情都行。

I've realized that real rest 我这才意识到，真正的休息

and just numbing out are two completely different things. 和单纯麻痹自己完全是两码事。

One fills you back up, the other just passes the time. 一个能让你重新充满电，另一个只是在消磨时间。

Now, when I'm worn down, 现在，每当我精疲力竭的时候，

I don't reach for the easy numbing anymore. 我不再随手抓起那些能麻痹自己的东西了，

I reach for the small quiet thing 而是会去做点安静的小事，

that actually leaves me feeling like a person again. 那些真正能让我感觉自己重新活过来的事。
