Whatever the situation that is causing you problems, the secret of managing stress is to look after yourself and, where possible, to remove some of the causes of stress.
Some ways to cope with stress:
1. Accept offers of practical help

2. Do one thing at a time - don't keep piling stress on stress

3. Know your own limits - don't be too competitive or expect too much of yourself

4. Talk to someone

5. Do things you enjoy and have some fun

6. Let off steam in a way that causes no harm (shout, scream or hit a pillow)

7. Walk away from stressful situations

8. Try to spend time with people who are rewarding rather than critical and judgmental

9. Practise slow breathing using the lower part of the lungs

10. Use relaxation techniques
