I have been using a lot of this information with my daughter who has anxiety and depression. My biggest take away is that we can do things to change and support our mental health. There are lots of things to help us. It can also help me with staff and studnets to support them in having good mental health and in understanding them.
I use deep breathing frequently so it was good to learn I am doing something right! I , like carrie.farber, need to work on "cat"astrophizing as I find myself doing it alot. My husband tells me frequently my tone doesn't match my message!
The biggest takeaway includes recognizing when I am "cat"astrophizing in my mind, and the understanding that I can control it instead of spiraling. Also how much visualizing, deep breaths and tone of voice matters.
