What are your coping mechanisms

NAS62726

I have negative coping mechanisms for dealing with sadness and anxiety:

‘’daydreaming excessively

spending excessive hours on my ipad

staying in bed all day 

positive coping mechanisms:

listening to quiet music’

spending a short amount of time watching tv or on ipad

going to the gym

taking a walk

calling a friend.

what are your coping mechanisms? 

I ‘I really want to start working again but find working so stressful and trying to find out what coping mechanisms might help.

    I consume large amounts if sugar and caffeine at my desk which you shouldn't do obviously Wink

    I suggest a quiet walk to work rather than public transport or drive. A book or music or ambient noise on the headphones if possible.
