You are still very new to this. It does take time to get them out of your head. Focus on ShellDoll now. What do you like to do?
Read some new books.
Visit the spa. If money is an issue, get some new DIY manis and pedis in colors you may not usually try.
If you can, treat yourself to something nice.It doesn't have to be expensive. Looking good makes you feel better.
Fall in love with ShellDoll - find out what makes you tick, what your passion is.
Try cooking new recipes.
Plant a garden or at least get a plant you can water.
Use your best dinnerware and glassware. Just because. Set a pretty table.
Volunteer to help others or join a service group.
Exercise - this has really helped me to get the body and strength I want and to feel good. Working out is a great way to meet others and have positive interacions.
Pray, meditate or do whatever it is that causes you to get centered. Feed the inner ShellDoll.
Confront your issues and then detach.
Just a few suggestions. You may already be trying some of these. It WILL come. It always does. It is a journey of self discovery and in a way we are "fortunate" that we will get to know our real selves in a way that many people never may.
