Practice skills like paced breathing, grounding, and wise time use to meet challenges with faith and calm.
Try: Schedule two 5-minute breathing breaks daily for one week; note how it affects your mood.
Learn warning signs, Christ-centered hope, and when to seek additional help—without shame.

Create a personal plan to continue practicing skills, seek ordinances and covenants, and rely on the Savior day by day.
