Just curious. What are your coping skills you most often use?

Here are my favorite ones

>Prayer: eases my mind to give my worries over to God.
>Journaling: release of emotion on any given situation. Also helps me to organize my thoughts.
>Word search puzzles: Something simple that takes up time and takes my mind off things

I would say I'm pretty good at coping however; I do go through phases where I don't use any of my skills or use negative ones but I'm working on that.

I also like doing yoga and /or meditating.

If all these things fail then I will take my anxiety med and only then, (it's just hydroxyzine anyway, not addictive or anything) I just feel better when I know I coped with something without having to take them.
