Here are the tips and advice to help you manage your emotional health:
- Connect with others. Share your worries with your loved ones. Cry if you have to. Shed some tears if there is a need. Social circle, however small it is, helps us minimise emotional distress.
- Understand your emotions, accept them and express yourself.
