Stress and anxiety are common experiences for young adults. Sometimes, these feelings can escalate into panic attacks. If you’re struggling with stress or anxiety, there are things you can do to help yourself calm down.

Tips for Calming Down from a Stressful Situation

•  Take deep breaths. Deep breathing is a simple but effective way to calm down. Inhale slowly through your nose, hold for a few seconds, and then exhale slowly through your mouth.
•  Find a quiet place. If you can, remove yourself from the stressful situation and find a quiet place to relax.
•  Focus on the present moment. Try to avoid dwelling on the past or worrying about the future. Focus on the here and now.
•  Practice mindfulness. Mindfulness is the practice of paying attention to the present moment without judgment. There are many mindfulness apps and exercises available online.
•  Talk to someone you trust. Talking to a friend, family member, or therapist can help you manage stress and anxiety.
