If life feels like a rollercoaster, these tips can help you cope:

1. Change your perspective.

• Acknowledge the difficulties but remember that they will pass. 
• Think about another time you overcame a setback. Trust that you can do it again.

2. Stay connected.

• Share your struggles with someone you trust. 
• Reach out to one person each day. It can help you (and them) feel less alone.
• Connect with people over your favorite hobby or pastime.

3. Practice gratitude.

• Find something—every day—that you are grateful for, no matter how small or simple. 
• Start a journal, meditate, or do yoga.

4. Look for meaning.

• Be proud of how you’ve grown through your struggles. 
• Volunteer your time. It can give you a sense of purpose and foster connections with others.
