Ways to Ease the Stress:
- Keep to regular routines: Get up and go to bed at the same time every day and eat regular meals, even when you dont feel like it.
- Try to get some light exercise every day. A brisk walk is very beneficial. Try walking with a friend to use this time as a social opportunity.
- Limit use of caffeine and alcohol both may interfere with sleep.
- Take time for yourself each day and use it for something that is relaxing for you (a warm bubble bath, watching a movie or TV, listening to music, reading).
- Meet frequently with family and friends.
- Talk about your feelings and experiences.
