Effective Anxiety Coping Skills
Dispelling homesickness during treatment
2
Bring a picture or special item

• No matter how much a person has learned about the
  disease through mental health facilities, there's
  always more to learn in regards to new treatments
  and interesting ways to cope.
• Research for blogging purposes will educate the
  person on these topics and others. Additionally,
  the patient will be able to get more in touch
  with his or her own condition.
• He or she may be able to recognize the symptoms
  along with what treatments have been successful
  so far.

3
Make friends

• It might be easier said than accomplished but a
  person entering rehab shouldnt arrive with a
  poor attitude.
• The setting of goals and the determination to do
  well are just as important as treatment itself.
• Get to know other patients, they will have
  similar problems and its reassuring to know one
  is not alone in their illness.
• Group therapy in particular allows patients to
  share their story if they wish and listen to the
  experiences of others.

4
Keep the goal in sight

• Rather than complaining about having to spend the
  next 30 to 90 days in recovery, a person can
  focus on the goal of how much better his or her
  life will be after completing treatment and
  living a sober life.
• A person can focus on the career he or she could
  have and the positive benefits that will be
  available once he or she is substance free.

5
Be selfish

• Depending on where the blogs are posted, it's
  possible for readers of the blog to be able to
  contact the blogger.
• This means the blogger may feel less alone in the
  battle when others are sharing their experiences.
  
• They can state if they've been through the same
  thing and even share stories of how they overcame
  their mental illness.

6
Try helping another patient

• Often, being the total opposite of selfish is the
  best option. When people focus on something
  besides themselves,
• it helps stave off feelings of loneliness.
• Helping another provides its own reward by
  helping someone else overcome their problems.

7
Reach out to a counselor

• Lonely patients should talk to to a counselor to
  share their feelings. The counselors are there to
  help in any way possible, even if that means just
  talking to a patient as more than a counselor but
  as a friend.
• The counselor is interested in guiding a patient
  in the right direction, and that cant happen if
  a person has feelings of loneliness that arent
  addressed.
• Unexpressed feelings of loneliness can lead to an
  individual not being completely focused.
• This can result in the abuse of drugs or alcohol
  following rehab because he or she wasnt focused
  or is still lonely and needs a coping mechanism.
