Stress Management Tools I Have Learned In Therapy

Even children need to learn stress management techniques and that is something I didn’t have much of until high school. I had an intern at Stanford Children’s Hospital my freshman year, and a social worker my sophomore through senior year. I was not allowed to take medication in high school, so each therapist had to work around that knowing full well I needed medication. Yes, this is sad, and it was difficult for me to survive daily without medication. It was harsh. Now I have the medication I needed, and my adult life is much calmer but my life was very difficult growing up.
