Here around me are the available destinations that you can choose. Each is designed to help you cope with different challenges.
At the Social Support Destination, you learn how to reach out to others to help you with your situation. For strategies that help you manage your tension and axiety, go to the Relaxation Destination. Sometimes you may need help dealing with your memories or with reminders like sounds or smells which can cause significant distress. The Triggers Destination has ideas and techniques to help with that. The Self-Talk Destination will teach you how to be your own best advocate and the importance of your thoughts in improving your recovery. There are common pitfalls that we would like to help you avoid in your recovery. Those are highlighted in the Unhelpful Coping Destination. The Seeking Professional Help Destination is a practical guide that will help you determine if you would benefit from some professional assistance. It is especially helpful for people experiencing significant distress that lasts more than a month and does not seem to be getting better.
We hope that you find this web site useful in your recovery. It’s not always easy. To get the maximum benefit from the site, we recommend that you work through each of the destinations and that you set reasonable goals. Setting aside 15 minutes a day to visit the web site at first helps you get the most out of it. The key to recovery is for you to feel stronger over time, finding new ways to move forward in the process.
