Okay but kin, my mental health is crazy bad rn fdnsdlafal

Noctis

Lazy boy is laying right there with you.

He encourages you to vent to him. Even if your complaints aren’t important, he still wants to hear them. Tell him all about how you twisted your ankle last week and it’s still a little tender, he doesn’t mind

He also encourages you to at least get in the shower. A shower can change a mood. Plus if you shower, you can say that you’ve done that if you’ve done nothing else all day

Ignis

He unintentionally makes you laugh by making really bad jokes? He caught you staring at a wall with a blank look and he said “Darling, this isn’t the time to meditate.”

Ignis also encourages you to shower, and he says it for the same reason as Noctis. The truth is that you’re getting musty and he sort of needs you to shower for his sake

And since he genuinely just enjoys making lists, he’ll break down things you need to do into small to-do lists. If you have issues with executive function, he’s a godsend

Prompto

King of simple wisdom

“Sure you feel worthless, but that doesn’t mean you’re actually worthless. Sometimes I feel tall, but I’m not.”

He also tries to teach you the art of self bribery. If you know you’ll feel better if you eat but you need to go to the store, listen to music or a podcast you’ve been meaning to catch up to on the way to the store. It might not make sense at first, but he swears it works

Gladio

He picks you up and takes you to sit by an open window. Gladio’s mom once said some fresh air and sunshine could do a person a lot of good, so he thinks of this immediately

“You should try being depressed outside. We could go lay in the grass or something.”

Buys you a plant or something that needs care so that you will have a reason to get out of bed. He stops by just about every day anyway, so if you don’t manage to take care of it he can, but he thinks small tasks like that can be helpful

Nyx

A firm believer in the healing powers of at least changing your clothes. Nyx thinks as long as you’ve gotten dressed, it doesn’t matter how long you’ve been laying in bed

(This explains why you sometimes come over and find Nyx laying in bed wearing jeans and a coat, like he was just about to go out)

“You might be miserable, but this outfit isn’t. Look at that jacket!” “… Nyx.”

Luna

She sends in The Boy. Umbra is a lot dumber than we give him credit for, and even if you’re stuck in your head he can make you laugh for a second

Luna actually lays with you when she can. If she can’t be there, she has Umbra and Pryna take turns looking after you

“Laughter is the honey that sweetens the bitter medicine” is a saying she lives by, so she spends most of her time trying to get a genuine laugh out of you

Aranea

“You want some fuckin… tea or something?”

Aranea’s one of those people who keeps really busy during a mental health crisis, so she’s not sure how to help you. She understands how you’re feeling, but she doesn’t understand not being able to get out of bed

Not understanding doesn’t mean she doesn’t have sympathy though. She tries to keep you company and look after you without being a nuisance

Cindy

The days you can’t get out of bed are some of the rare times Cindy takes a day off work

She spends this time helping you out in any way she can. She opens the windows, make sure you get enough food to eat, keeps talking to you to make sure you know she’s there…

It’s all about self care with Cindy. She thinks you need more of it
