I wrote a blog for the APA Help Center on how to manage your stress during this uncertain time: http://www.yourmindyourbody.org/managing-your-stress-about-sequestration/
Some quick reminders about how to deal with your stress.
- Face the reality of your situation, neither putting your head in the sand nor reacting like the sky is falling.
- Make a plan.
- Talk to your family about your plan.
- Renew your commitment to taking good care of yourself: exercise, get plenty of sleep and eat nutritious meals.
- Communicate with your elected officials about your views and how you want them to represent you.
