And on a personal level here are some strategies for managing your stress:
1-Therapy:
Regular therapy sessions give therapists the opportunity to identify rising stress levels with you and collaboratively build stronger stress management skills.
2-Journaling:
Setting aside five to 10 minutes a day to journal can help you notice symptoms of stress and work through challenges.
3-Relaxation practices:
Diaphragmatic breathing or progressive muscle relaxation exercises can help relieve stress and promote the body’s relaxation response, making you more resilient to stressors.

Techniques like cognitive restructuring can help to examine core beliefs and help you reframe your response to stressful situations.
