The lines below could help when stressed:
- I have been through many hard things in my life, and I am strong because of it.
- I can tolerate this.
- I’ve been through worse before and made it through.
- I don’t have to feel comfortable all the time. That just proves I am human.
- This emotion will come and go. It will feel differently in twenty minutes
- I can respond effectively. I have the skills to handle this situation.
- This is another challenge that I will figure out and face.
- These emotions are telling me something. They won’t hurt me.
- I am human. I can make mistakes. No one is perfect.
- I am able to protect myself.
- Slow down. I know there is more than one choice I can make.
- I can ask others for help.
- I have made the right decision before.
- My thoughts are just thoughts; they’re not always right. Don’t believe everything you think.
- I am strong.
- This too shall pass.
- The emotions I feel right now are giving me information about how I feel but they’re not necessarily based on facts.
- If I don’t fight my emotions, they will go down on their own.
- I am a decent person.
- It is okay if it takes me time to figure this out.
- Learning will give me more options in the future.
- There are times when I will fall back into old patterns. I just need to catch myself and get back on track with what’s effective.
- I know that I deserve love.
- I am my own unique person: special, talented, and worthwhile.
