#this guide breaks

Breaking doesn't mean you're weak. It's just a sign you've reached a point where your current coping mechanisms aren't working anymore. It's an opportunity to learn new strategies and build stronger resilience.

Look out for signs like increased anxiety, constant fatigue, withdrawing from friends, or feeling overwhelmed by everyday tasks. These are signals your brain and body are sending to tell you to slow down and prioritize your well-being before things escalate.

First, acknowledge your feelings and be kind to yourself. Reach out to a trusted friend, family member, or therapist for support. Prioritize self-care activities like getting enough sleep, eating healthy, and engaging in activities you enjoy to help you recharge.
