    Social media definitely increases my stress levels. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t feel like social media is bad on every front, but it definitely can make me more stressed out– even subconsciously. If I am on my phone too much before bed– doomscrolling on TikTok– it takes me way longer to fall asleep. Does anybody else feel the same way?

    I recently learned this strategy that I think is really great for issues like this! You open your palm and trace/write the word “person” onto it. Then, close your palm and pretend to swallow/chew the word. It may sound silly but doesn’t everything before you try it? I find it works for me.

    In emergency or short term situations, I think so honestly. It can talk someone down from a ledge and provide a good set of tips depending on the issue.
