โฃ
1๏ธโƒฃ. ๐˜š๐˜ต๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ต ๐˜ข ๐˜‘๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ๐˜ฏ๐˜ข๐˜ญ – Tracking your day-to-day mood can give you time to pause and reflect on how you’re feeling, especially if you’ve noticed that you’re particularly upset or depressed. It’s also a good way to record important milestones and positive, exciting things that are going on in your life.โฃ
โฃ
2๏ธโƒฃ. ๐˜œ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฑ๐˜ญ๐˜ถ๐˜จ – Most of the things we do and tasks we have require technology to some degree. But, taking some time off of computers and phones can be a helpful way to clear your mind and spend a few quiet moments to yourself.โฃ
โฃ
3๏ธโƒฃ. ๐˜”๐˜ข๐˜ฌ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ข ๐˜“๐˜ช๐˜ด๐˜ต ๐˜ฐ๐˜ง ๐˜Š๐˜ฐ๐˜ฑ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ ๐˜š๐˜ต๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜จ๐˜ช๐˜ฆ๐˜ด – Sometimes, when stressful situations or emotions arise, it can be difficult to cope. Creating a physical list of soothing activities can be a helpful visual reminder. Anything can be on this list as long as it is comforting to you and not harmful!โฃ
โฃ
4๏ธโƒฃ. ๐˜ˆ๐˜ด๐˜ฌ ๐˜ง๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ ๐˜๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ๐˜ฑ – Requesting help is not easy, but it is sometimes necessary. If you’re starting to feel overwhelmed, reach out to someone you trust. Create a network of friends and others (teachers, extended family, etc.) who you can fall back on for support.โฃ
