May Wellness Toolbox Bingo

[dreamwriters]

Hi, I'm dreamwriters and I'm your May bingo host.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, but for the sake of being a little more upbeat and positive, I'm making May's bingo card a Wellness Toolbox.

Also because I'm a day late posting this, I'm extending this til June 1st instead of May 31st.

Theme: Wellness Toolbox Bingo
Dates: May 2nd - June 1st
Public Card: Yes
Open Card/Amnesty: Yes
Fills: Anything goes. Remember to use your content warnings!
Prizes: banners will be available at the end of the month and beyond.

Something not on the list? Want to make your own card? If you need help, I'd suggest using the Positive Coping Techniques or Little Actions for Self-Care lists on the bingo generator. Or the list in this box, which combines most of those two lists, plus a couple extra self-care activities.

Oh, I LIKE this!

I'm currently working on a story segment which /uses/ one of these, and I am eager to make a full bingo. (To make it faster, I may actually do a random-five-item fill!)

Re: Oh, I LIKE this!

[ysabetwordsmith]

Yay!

I am all over this theme. I just sat through Age of Ultron listening to all my soups going "We need some EFA over here!" and "Whyyyyyyyy is the sneakiest person on the team wearing a suit that GLOWS? They only HAVE one stealth member!" and "Aww sweetie I wish I could loan you my books." So yeah, as much fun as taking my desertfolk to see a horse movie.

The suit in particular had /reasons/ --Scarlett Johansen's pregnancy-- but in universe, didn't make SENSE. It bugged me for that reason.

Re: Oh, I LIKE this!

[ysabetwordsmith]

There are so many better ways to have handled that challenge. *facepalm*

Yay!

[ysabetwordsmith]

This looks like so much fun. I am making a card for myself!

Mental health is one of my main interests in RL and I like some of those prompts, so hopefully RL won't be too tricky this month and give me some extra free time for writing.

Yay!

I would really like to see more writing on this topic, because it is interesting and useful and getting minimal attention, let alone much worth reading.
