A List of Coping Skills for Anger, Anxiety, and Depression | blakeflannery.hubpages.com.
I wanted to post this yesterday, but found several other tasks that needed my attention. After reading this article, an acquaintance said they were surprised at some of the negative coping skills they had acquired. I thought I would take a look-see to assess if I also had a few habits I would like to change. This particular piece emphasizes positive skills first, though, which makes you feel better about yourself by the time you reach the negative, haha. That, in itself, is a positive “coping strategy,” IMO.
I must say these longer spring/summer days help me out a bit. I love the early sunrise and warmer mornings, as they enable me to get up, get out, and organize my environment more. Sometimes, cold & dreary days have me wanting to stay beneath the covers and shut everything out (literally and metaphorically).
Take a look at this informative list, if you will, and see if you find anything that helps you. Some items will surely be familiar to you, but I often find what we know to do and what we do do can be two very different things.
Take care!
