Student Affairs Office Counselling Service Special Arrangements

1. Pause viewing distressing footage, social media or news for a while — give yourself permission to step away from upsetting information.
2. Talk to and stay connected with trusted friends or family.
3. Look after your body and mind — try deep breathing, listening to soothing music, or enjoying a warm drink.
4. Practise diaphragmatic breathing and progressive muscle relaxation to ease tension.
5. Maintain your daily routine as much as possible — regular meals, moderate exercise, and time with loved ones all help.
6. Allow yourself to feel and express emotions — acute stress reactions are natural, not a sign of weakness.
7. Avoid using smoking or alcohol to numb feelings.
8. If discomfort persists, please reach out for professional support without hesitation.
