Practice

4. Keep with your Prickle

Catching Strategy:

▪ Practise a strategy for ‘catching the prickle’ and self-soothing,

rather than letting the unpleasant feeling control you.

▪ Work with your Mum to rehearse events which make you feel

very prickly. Imagine you are at school and a teacher is being

really rude to you. What reaction would be best for you?

Practise ‘catching the prickle’. What strategy could you use?

▪ Once you are calm, practise explaining your unmet need and

what would help you feel better. Think through the 5C Needs.
