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.
