Your healing process takes time. If you need to skip that party to heal, do so. If you need to put the phone on silent mode to heal, do so. If you can afford to take a day off work to heal, do so. Invest in your your healing process by giving yourself compassion and patience.

If you're stressed, whether by your job or something more personal, the first step to feeling better is to identify the cause.

The most unhelpful thing you can do is turn to something unhealthy to help you cope, such as smoking or drinking.

Not taking control of the situation and doing nothing can make your problems worse.

A few coping techniques include:

🔵Breathing exercises.
🔵Connecting with your support network.
🔵Having some "me time".
🔵Doing some activities to help you connect with your 5 senses.

Starting a new job can trigger a complex mix of emotions.

You might feel proud of yourself and satisfied that your hard work has paid off, but you might also notice some uneasiness creeping up amid your excitement.

What if you can’t handle the workload, or the job is nothing like you imagined? What if your new teammates think you aren’t up to scratch?

These worries, and plenty of others, might chase through your thoughts endlessly, leaving you doubtful and overwhelmed before you even start work.

Reach out, there is always a helping hand.
