Coping strategies that may help
Mindful Breathing
Take a moment to focus on your breath. Inhale deeply for four counts, hold for four, and exhale for six. This can help ground you in the present moment.
Journaling
Writing down your thoughts can provide clarity and help you process your emotions. Set aside a few minutes each day to express yourself on paper.
Establish a Routine
Creating a daily routine can provide structure and reduce feelings of uncertainty. Include time for self-care and relaxation.
Limit Information Overload
Reduce your exposure to news and social media if they increase your anxiety. Instead, focus on positive content or activities that uplift you.
