Feeling low, angry or anxious? Here are some things you can do right now to manage.
Talk to someone: Share your feelings with a trusted friend, family member, or an adult you trust. Talking about your emotions can help you feel understood and less alone.
Stay active: Move your body – dance, star jump or run on the spot. It’ll help your body process any adrenaline and boost your mood.
Breathe deeply: Take slow, deep breaths to calm your mind and body. Try inhaling for four seconds, holding for four, and exhaling for four.
Write it down: Get your thoughts out on paper or on your phone. This will help begin to reduce the strength of your feelings as you turn them into words.
Listen to music: Music can have a powerful effect on your mood. Choose songs that make you feel good or help you relax.
Take a break: If you’re feeling overwhelmed, take a short break from what you’re doing. Step outside, stretch, or do something you enjoy.
