GOOD MENTAL HEALTH TIPS: 1. Most importantly is to prioritize your own wellbeing first: This will keep you present and supportive of your family. 2. Model and imagine of how you want your children to express and behave: the way you respond to your emotions and negative behaviors present the way you want your children to learn and imitate. 3. Limit the use of social media and technology at your home: school day no technology unless it is for school purposes limit the technology usage down to max hours per day 4. A good balanced diet and enough family time, and good quality sleep: A good breakfast daily (difficult for me too) Playing board game after dinner Sleep time for kids (6 or more hours); adults varies (i just need 5 hours) 5. Encourage your family to connect daily or often face to face weekend gathering with friends and family especially during the holidays, birthday, etc. 6. Some warning signs of a problem: Severe changes in appetite or sleep Not doing or enjoying usual activities Showing deep sadness, aggression, isolation, or difficulty controlling their behavior Having thoughts of harming oneself or others Suffering from severe chest pain or panic attacks Using drugs or alcohol repeatedly 7.
