  • Not been a good day. I'm so up and down at the moment, I'm so confused. I really can't keep on like this.

  • If it helps, what I do for myself is close my eyes, take a deep breath and imagine that all the worries, all the panic, all the things that are creating chaos for me, are tangible things in front of me.

    I then take another deep breath, physically take a step back as if I'm stepping away from these things.

    Breath deeply and slowly, notice that there is now a space between these issues and myself and give myself a few seconds of not having to deal with any of it.

    Once I've done that, I look to see if there is one thing that I can deal with right now. If not, can I do something physical like tidy my desk? Just something that distracts me. The more I do this, the more I find it's easier to cope with whats happening.

    I don't know if that could help you, there are plenty of other ways, you may have a few techniques of your own. That is just the way I've managed to deal.

  • Thank you Loz, truly. I just feel like I'm losing the fight.
