What are 3 of the most common coping methods for trauma?

The three most common coping mechanisms for trauma are social support, deep breathing and diversionary activities.

Explanation:

Deep Breathing: Deep breathing is something that most of us can do at any time to cope with anxiety or panic, in the moment. Some types of deep breathing practices, such as transformative breathwork are more comprehensive and can be integrated into your recovery program.

Diversionary Activities: Any activity that turns your focus to something outside of your thoughts can help cope with trauma. Diversionary activities can include hobbies, like puzzles and crafts, or physical activities, like going for a walk or jog. Some diversionary activities are used in recovery programs, like art, music, or cinema therapy.

Social Support: Talking things out with a trusted friend or counselor can help us feel better, as we feel validated for our feelings when others listen.
