How do you cope with stress?

If you knew me past a computer screen, you'd know there's a lot on my plate, and sometimes it feels like more than a mouthful. I'm trying to stay sane but negativity and my own faithless reassurance keeps bringing me down. How do you pick yourself up and tell yourself you got this?

Meditation and practicing mindfulness has really personally helped me stay focused on the moment and keep me motivated. It doesn't work for everyone, but that's what I've found. Even if a stressful thought comes through, sort of recognizing it for what it is, and then letting it go and refocusing on what you're doing.

@caccoon Thank you. I need to start being more aware that this stress will be fleeting.

@KillKittie 🤗 I wish you luck! I know it's easier said than done, but I do hope you can find your way through it! It's terrible draining and it really weighs you down to have a lot playing on your mind.
