  If feeling overwhelmed, do the 5-4-3-2-1 grounding method.

  Find and make note of:

  • 5 things you see
  • 4 things you touch
  • 3 things you hear
  • 2 things you can smell
  • 1 thing you can taste/recall tasting

  And the idea with this is to stop dwelling on your negative spiral, and to focus on immediate surroundings.

  Therapist also said to feel free to mix and match the sense with the number. For example, I don’t have a good sense of smell, so I do 2 things I can taste/remember tasting, and 1 thing I can smell.
