This blog will be short and simple ☺️there are many different ways of coping with mental health and these are just some I use when I have a dip in my mental health:
- using a self-help workbook with the support of a therapist
- Use an online course
- Talk over the phone
- Have one-to-one’s
- Meet in a group with similar conditions.
- Noticing tension and taking deep breaths to reduce it
- Catching negative thoughts and replacing them with healthy ones
- Setting and maintaining appropriate and healthy boundaries between you and others
- Relaxing with aromatherapy
- Destressing with soothing activities like coloring, reading, etc.
- Eating healthy
- Sleeping the right amount
- Finding things that make you grateful
- Creating little moments of joy in each day
