Coping skills
What’s everyone’s good coping skills when they get upset or triggered.? I suffer from bad anxiety and depression and BPD AND ITS REALLY HARD
@Phoenix1357
One of the coping strategies I use is to play my favorite music and I also write down all my feelings and thoughts, it helps me to organize them and I feel better as the result.
Ahh yes music is a big one… writing down my thoughts and feelings is a big one which I have to work on
@Phoenix1357 Here are some coping strategies I use when I feel stressed or upset!
1. Leaving behind what I'm doing and taking a walk to clear my mind
While I can't focus much on my work when I'm stressed, leaving it for a while and coming back to it when I'm in a better mood helps.
2. Talking to someone who's willing to hear me out
Sometimes there are things on my mind that I just need someone to give me advice or reassure me.
3. Listening to music
This is similar to 1, listening to music can bring up your mood and give you a peace of mind.
