What to Do When Life Is Really Hard

Must remember

I can’t think clearly when I’m in fff mode. Relax, mediate and become aware before reacting or answering questions to myself.

Panic

I find when I am super worried about something, I can sometimes trigger a state of panic or sleeplessness, and my mind won’t stop obsessing. I realize now this might be caused by an underlying fight or flight response. I will definitely try this technique next time.

Am I in Immediate Danger

although I have learned about this before, I find it very easy for myself to go back to my former coping mechanisms. Those are not always the best. And especially when times are very hard I find that I forget these kind of skills that I have learned this was a very good reminder session for me and a time for my life is really hard. Thank you.
