Self Care During a Challenging Time

Coping with stress and anxiety can take an emotional toll on you. It is important to know that there are ways you can reduce your levels of stress and anxiety. You can achieve this by:

  • Focusing on the things you can control.
  • Staying connected with family and friends by having one-on-one conversations, using video chats, FaceTime and/or social media outlets.
  • Taking care of your mind and body by exercising regularly, maintaining a regular sleep schedule, and going outside for a quiet and relaxing walk.

Getting the help you need is quick and simple: 

  • Schedule a meeting with an Atlantic Cape counselor to discuss your mental health needs by calling (609) 343-5667.
