Tip of the Week:

Healthy Ways to Cope with Stress

Feeling emotional and nervous or having trouble sleeping and eating can all be normal reactions to stress. Engaging in healthy activities and getting the right care and support can put problems in perspective and help stressful feelings subside in a few days or weeks. Some tips for beginning to feel better are:

• Take care of yourself.

• Eat healthy, well-balanced meals

• Exercise on a regular basis

• Get plenty of sleep

• Give yourself a break if you feel stressed out

• Talk to others. Share your problems and how you are feeling and coping with a parent, friend, counselor, doctor, or pastor.

• Avoid drugs and alcohol. Drugs and alcohol may seem to help with the stress. In the long run, they create additional problems and increase the stress you are already feeling.

Recognize when you need more help. If problems continue or you are thinking about suicide, talk to a psychologist, social worker, or professional counselor.
