When to Seek Help:

  • When you are not able to manage symptoms/behaviors on your own

  • When symptoms/behaviors are impairing your daily functioning

  • When family or friends express concern about you

  • When symptoms/behaviors are persistent and enduring and/or becoming more frequent/intense

  • When you are just generally feeling poorly and/or functioning below your potential

How to Cope:

  • Consult with a professional (i.e. a physician, therapist and/or other healthcare provider)

  • Increase support from family and friends who are stable, healthy and invested in your well-being

  • Identify and become more involved in positive/productive activities & behaviors you find enjoyable

  • Fresh air & physical movement (this doesn't have to be anything extreme... A short walk or simply sitting outdoors can do wonders)

  • Identify and become involved in creative outlets (music, art, writing, photography, etc.)

  • Breathe deeply into your belly when distressed, at least 10 breaths (this sounds elementary, but breathing is often the first thing that stops under duress...

  • deep breaths can slow down the body's physiological response to stress, which then can reduce the psychological response).
