Cope with the Tough Stuff

Mental Health Brief #4 - Dr. Jonathan Douglas

Cope with the Tough Stuff

 

 

Cope With the Tough Stuff – recognize that you simply cannot rely on avoiding your emotions

How do you handle the stress of some of the tragic situations you may come across in your work as a lawyer? You need to be able to pay attention to yourself, recognize your own needs and make sure you are getting help for what you’re going through.

 

The Opening Remarks mental health briefs provide Ontario lawyers with wellness tips and resources from a variety of individuals speaking in their own capacity. The briefs are not a substitute for professional care. If you are in crisis, we encourage you to urgently contact a mental health service provider.
