Support
If, like Eva, you’re feeling stressed or overwhelmed, small actions such as removing yourself temporarily from stressful situations, slowly regulating your breath, and using touch to anchor yourself in the present can help. However, if these thoughts continue to hold you back from living the life you want to lead, it might be time to share how you feel with a friend, family member, community support group, or your GP. There are also links to additional support on the hearmyselfthink.co.uk website.
