When struggling with your mental health or even just trying to get over a rough day, you have to look at the little wins in life. One thing that always boosts my mood is some good food — something that Chick-fil-A definitely has. So, on a day when you're feeling down in the dumps, treat yourself to your favorite item from Chick-fil-A... just hope it isn't a Sunday!

Here are 11 instances where Chick-fil-A aided my mental health:

1. Having a bad day?

Good thing Chick-fil-A doesn't just serve chicken, but also has some great ice cream selections.

2. Want to do shots but aren't in the mental state to get drunk?

Chick-fil-A sauce it is. Their ranch is also a great sauce. (I'm only half joking here, though I've never done it).

3. Feeling under-appreciated, needy, or sad?

Good thing Chick-fil-A employees are always incredibly nice, and their "my pleasures" sometimes are what you need to hear to get you through the day.

4. Lost faith in humanity?

Just think about the story where a baby was born in a Chick-fil-A bathroom and was blessed with free food for life and guaranteed a job when she becomes of age.

5. Running low on cash and need a quick meal?

Good thing you've been saving up your points on your Chick-fil-A app.

6. Dreading going to an event because you are mentally exhausted?

Thank the Chick-fil-A gods that the event just so happened to be catered by them, taking some of the weight of social anxiety off your shoulders.

7. Overworked and don't feel like cooking even though you are trying to be healthy?

Chick-fil-A has some healthy options for that.

8. Insecure about your overuse of puns?

No one can make fun of you because their favorite restaurant's name is one big pun. Chicken fillet? Grade A food? Double pun.

9. Lack of motivation and inspiration?

10. Still looking for a reason to embrace "new year, new you?"

The sauce packings at Chick-fil-A changed, but they still have the same amazing tastes. Just because you want to change something on the outside doesn't make yiu lose any personal value.

11. Not certain how to express yourself?

Buy some Chick-fil-A merch and share your passion via your fashion.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
