Hello everyone, I want to say Thank you for this Mayo Connect it’s a wonderful thing. If I could suggest something to everyone who is have a hard time coping, this is what I do everyday and have instilled this in my children but every night before I go to bed I give Thanks for another day and say tomorrow will be better. In the morning I give myself a pep talk with some go to words. I use these words throughout the day if I’m having one of my frustrating days. It can be simple like, “You are stronger than this” , “Don’t let this Beat you” or my favorite “I’ve got things to do, Let’s get it done”. Everyone has to find their inner strength which Can be hard but we are all Stong. Hope this helps someone😊

@kimcvi Resilience in the face of adversity is a good thing! You are showing that you do care enough about yourself, giving the pep talks that you do. I bet you are supportive of others, too, and they won't forget you nor your words/actions.
@colleenyoung mentioned the journaling discussion, and I have found writing down thoughts/feelings/events and memories help to heal me alot. To start, you take a pen and paper, just write. You can write a letter to yourself, if you'd like. We have listed some books there if you want to look at them. Remember, we are here for you, and want to support you.
