NHS Choices: Ten ways to fight your fears – Stress, anxiety and depression – NHS Choices

The following information document/article is from NHS Choices and discusses how we can combat our day-to-day stress, anxiety and depression.

This article may help you to develop a ‘Coping Strategy’ for dealing with your mental health issues hat you can keep and refer to at all times.   When things start to get tougher or fear/panic is setting in you can read your coping strategy and hopefully help to stop/reduce the effects of it.

Coping strategies are also good for friends, family & those who care for you so when/if you need assistance they can look at it to see what they need to do to help you keep to your coping strategy.  I find them reassuring and very helpful :-

Q. How do you currently cope with your common life difficulties & mental health issues?

Before the discussion starts, the article begins with a section where you can listen to –  Moodzone: Practical problem solving
