Wanted to add that treehouse's list is very good. I would also add,

1) Learn how to relax, buy a relaxation CD and practice it at least once a day.

2) learn how to breathe properly and how to slow it down for when you are in a panic. Place your hand on your stomach, breathe in 1-2, breathe out 1-2, do this for at least 10 minutes.

3) Meditation and streams of light, another relaxation strat. Gradually learn mindfulness.

4) Self-soothing talk.

5) Write things down.

6) Use distractions when things get too much. Play computer games, cards, crossword puzzles etc. This gives the brain a rest.

7) Ask for help when you need it. Talk to a friend. Or ring T.

Hope these suggestions help.
