Build your personalized anxiety-busting toolkit!
Everyone needs different tools to manage anxiety! This activity helps you build YOUR personalized calm kit by choosing the coping strategies that work best for YOU. Click on any tool to add it to your kit. You can add as many or as few as you like - this is YOUR toolkit! Once you have built your kit, you can print it as a reminder of all the strategies you have available.
Different tools work for different situations. Breathing might work before a test, while talking to someone works better for friendship worries.
If one tool is not working, try another! Sometimes you need to combine tools (like breathing + positive self-talk).
Print your kit and keep it somewhere visible - your desk, bathroom mirror, or take a photo on your phone!
Your kit can change! Come back and add new tools as you learn what works best for you.
