I haven't even watched the show yet but it's posts like these that make me want to watch it more than the flattery ones because I love nothing more than getting angry at a show for getting rid of angry characters
it's so fun how they removed sokka's sexism because it's "problematic" but then took away every aspect of katara that made her who she is and completely flattened her personality in a way that leaves none of the aspects that made her a feminist character and in a way that is only ever done to female characters and by fun i mean im going to kill them
Tips for anyone struggling with anxiety/anyone feeling anxious (from a very anxious boi)
Do a crossword or sudoku. I find that focusing on something that stretches my brain distracts me from whatever I’m worrying about.
Don’t go for a walk. Or anything relaxing really. This is going to push you further into those thoughts because you’re giving yourself the space to.
Journaling. Journaling doesn’t work for everyone, but if it does for you, definitely try it! The downside to this is that it can give you the space to go really deep into your thoughts, so I would recommend only doing this once you’re feeling calm/calmer.

your body and mind need each other. Your body can’t function well off three hours of sleep, and your mind can’t function well without enough water and it won’t do well under constant anxiety, and the two need to work together if you
Probably the most talked about one, but also the least done one. Remove yourself from the situation. Whatever is giving you anxiety, a person or a place, remove yourself from them/it. This is also sometimes the hardest one to do, because that person may be a safety net, or a friend. But when you have anxiety, it becomes very easy to be manipulated by friends because we often worry about what people think about us, and we become pleasers and do anything to keep our friendships.
