Can you feel it?? Please play!
Remember to Bounce back! • Bad times don’t last. Things get better. Stay optimistic. • Other people can help if you talk to them. • Unhelpful thinking makes you feel more upset. Think again. • Nobody’s perfect. Not you, not others. • Concentrate on the positives, no matter how small. • Everybody experiences sadness, hurt, failure, rejection, and setbacks sometimes; not just you. They are a normal part of life. • Blame fairly. How much of what happened was because of YOU, OTHERS, or BAD LUCK? • Accept what you can’t change; try to change what you can. • Catastrophizing exaggerates your worries. Don’t believe the worst possible picture. • Keep things in perspective. It’s one part of your life.
