Resilience & Emotional

Regulation

Difficulties staying in control of energy and emotions can therefore

be about how sensitive or vulnerable you are when things go

wrong and how easily you react and get upset.

What can you do if you are vulnerable and

react easily?

You can build resilience by:

▪ Connections: making stronger connections with people so you

feel loved, cared for and supported (see our Parachutes of

Support model for further information on how to do this).

This can be through:

o Asking for help to sort out problems with people who

you’ve had a bad relationship with.

o Looking at joining new clubs

or groups to do things you

are interested in.
