Since Friday, I have been making a lot of efforts to spend time by myself. I found it really important to deal with underlying feelings and emotions, so I decided to write a lot everyday, about the world and myself, and it gave a new importance to my alone time as everyday I would understand myself a bit more, and feel better. I did manage to at least spend an hour of alone time everyday, simply enjoying the view of my balcony, cleaning, reading, or making food, with music and speaking to my roommate. I still find it very hard to see my alone time as a necessity and not a luxury, but I am very happy of my process.

This past week, my commitment has been going well like unwell. There were days where I managed to accept that alone time was a priority, and felt satisfied to leave a social event or some work in progress to watch a movie or read, without ever looking at me phone.
It really has been a work on myself lately, that I have been doing consciently, to force myself to let go of others and not worry too much about them, to realize that there are only so much I can do for someone if I do not take care of myself.

Unfortunately, this week I did not meet my goal at all to take alone time at least 30 minutes to an hour a day. One of my closest friends started having psychotic episodes, as well as maniac and bipolar ones and I stayed by his side all week, I spent all my time from the moment I woke up until I went to sleep nursing him, making sure he would eat and sleep, while being safe to himself and to others. I am deeply unhappy about the fact that I took no time out for me, as it may impact my mental health as well to be around someone like this so much while trying to juggle with everything else. This week, my goal is to force myself, despise what he needs (as he is being taken care of professionally now) to work and rest.

I think that alone time, despise the circumstances, is always really important because you can't help anybody if you don't help yourself.

This past week, my goal was to really focus on enjoying my alone time without any electronics and my working time.
I really managed to balance the necessity for thinking without any internet interactions (such as youtube videos, tv shows, etc...) at least 20 minutes per day, nearly meditating on my balcony and the idea of alone time in our modern society, such as spending time on social media and Netflix.
I really tried to watch Netflix shows which would encourage my thought process and craving for new creative ways of thinking such as Explained, The good place or even Lucifer.
I am really satisfied with my progress towards my goal.
