Things that keep me sane, (I've found out)

Working out. If I tire myself out completely I won't get anxious and I'll sit around and do work instead of mope.

Writing. Be it musical, spiritual, textual... Anytime I write I feel like a better person.

Being with people. Self Exile is detrimental to my mental state. I dwell on how alone I am when I am alone. I won't be alone if I seek out people who want to be with me.

Hair. Strange I know, but I love being in love with my hair. If I hate my hair, I tend to not like myself much either. Cutting my hair over break had a tremendous change in my outlook on life.
