Stress is a normal part of life, but as it builds up, it can start to affect your mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Taking steps to manage stress can help you feel more balanced and better able to handle whatever life throws your way!

Simple ways to manage stress:
- Take breaks and get outside when you can!
- Stay connected with your friends, family, and community.
- Move your body; even a short walk can help.
- Practice deep breathing or mindfulness.
- If you can, limit news and social media when it starts to feel overwhelming.

If you need extra support, you’re not alone. There are resources in Island County to help you navigate mental healthcare: https://www.islandcountywa.gov/176/Behavioral-Health

If you or someone you know is struggling:
Call or text 988 for immediate mental health support.
Call 911 if you are in immediate danger.
