Coping strategies that may help
Mindful Breathing
Take a few moments to focus on your breath. Inhale deeply through your nose, hold for a moment, and exhale slowly through your mouth.
Grounding Techniques
Use your senses to connect with the present. Notice five things you can see, four you can touch, three you can hear, two you can smell, and one you can taste.
Journaling
Write down your thoughts and feelings. This can help you process your emotions and gain clarity about your experiences.
Physical Activity
Engaging in regular physical activity, even a short walk, can help alleviate symptoms and improve mood.
