Love‑bomb, blame, repeat.
 The Drama Triangle is a cycle where someone flips between Victim, Rescuer, and Persecutor roles to confuse, control, and emotionally trap others.

Being aware of this pattern—whether you’re in it yourself or noticing it in someone else—is the first step to stepping out of the chaos.

Ever felt completely drained by things that shouldn’t be that exhausting?

Welcome to Spoon Theory.

The Spoon Theory explains how much energy (or “spoons”) someone has in a day. People with chronic illness, mental health struggles, neurodivergence, or burnout often wake up with fewer spoons than others.

Every task costs spoons. Some days, brushing your teeth might take one. Socializing? That’s three. Work? Maybe five.

Running out of spoons = total exhaustion (aka bed rot time)

BUT—some things help you regain spoons. The trick is figuring out what actually restores you vs. what drains you more.

And here’s the interesting part—certain activities can actually help build energy over time.

Even when motivation is low, small, values-aligned actions—like stepping outside for fresh air or texting a friend—can help replenish spoons instead of just depleting them.

Swipe to learn how Spoon Theory can help you manage your energy (and refill your spoons when possible).

Ever gotten a well-meaning ‘you need to take something off your plate’ and had to physically restrain yourself from screaming—because if you could just take something off your plate, you obviously would have? 🙃

So, if you can’t offload anything, here are some ways to make the chaos a little more tolerable.

Swipe for low-effort ways to survive your to-do list without completely losing it.

You’ve learned, you’ve grown, and whether you like it or not, everyone messes up.

It’s time to stop punishing yourself for being human.

Save this as a reminder to be on your own team💗

But…let’s add some nuance

✅ What this DOES mean:
* You can’t control how someone feels or reacts to your boundaries.
* You’re not obligated to fix or manage someone else’s emotional state.
* Their feelings are theirs to process, just as yours are yours.

❌ What this DOESN’T mean:
* That you have a free pass to ignore accountability.
* That it’s okay to disregard how your actions affect others.

Ex: If you respectfully set a boundary and get hit with, “Oh, I guess I’m just a terrible person,” that’s a them problem, not a you problem. Setting a boundary isn’t an attack.

✨ So, here’s the balance: You can honour your truth and set boundaries while still being kind and respectful.

💡 Save this for the days you need permission to let go of emotional responsibility—but also remember to move through the world with care

What’s been your biggest challenge with this?

Save this for later✅

Not all overwhelm feels the same—so your coping tools shouldn’t be one-size-fits-all either.

These are the tools that work for me, but everyone’s nervous system is different.

What calms me down might not work for you—and that’s okay!

Build your own regulation menu by noticing what actually helps you feel grounded, safe, and in control.
Experiment, adjust, and make it yours.

🔄 Save this post as inspo, but take what works & leave what doesn’t.

Your nervous system, your rules.

What’s in your regulation toolkit?

As a major over thinker, I can relate to not enjoying the present moment

To being so in your head that you zone out whats going on around you

That you stop noticing the beauty of sun light, the tranquility of early mornings, the gift of warm covers and a soft bed

And it’s hard to stop over thinking

Our minds think that it’s keeps us safe

But typically… it’s keeping us safe from uncomfortable conversations and situations not from lions, bears, or burglars

I invite you to slow down and start focusing on getting out of your head and into your body

For me, “hot girl summer” is present girl summer

It’s allowing myself to let go of all the rules, timelines, and expectations

be where my feet are

and vibrantly experience what it means to be me.
