@gina-RO it's been a fun one!

i agree that when supporting anyone for any reason, taking time for self-care afterwards is really important! Personally I like to take some still time, just to reflect and sit in a peaceful moment.

As for music genre...

rock and metal all the way!

[WheresMySquishy]

@gina-ROI try to do something I enjoy after supporting someone else. It's important to take time out to focus on yourself so that you can support other people.

My favourite genre of music is always changing but I like listening to classical music because it's relaxing, as well as upbeat and fast electronic music because it always cheers me up!

[gina-RO]

Agreed  so so important @ecla34 @WheresMySquishy 

I forgot to answer it myself! 

I often self-care by going for a long walk by myself to think things through, and then doing something fun with friends. 

My fav genre of music - could not choose one! But am into electronic/ dance.  

Thanks again everyone! Keep being legends
