It is very important to get support from family, friends, and therapy when we are hurting and facing life challenges.

It’s also important to give ourselves what we need and become our own best friend.

Treat yourself like you would a friend. Learn to love and accept yourself. Reframe any negative self-talk.

Think about what you need and make your needs a priority.

Be compassionate towards the part of you that is hurting. As a mother would comfort a hurting child, imagine yourself comforting the wounded child within.
