Coping skills for worries, racing, and intrusive thoughts are strategies kids and teens use to handle persistent negative thoughts or memories in their minds. They rely on these skills to take charge of their thoughts and feelings, especially during exams, social situations, or when dealing with personal challenges to feel more in control. The Coping Skills For Worries, Racing, And Intrusive Thoughts handout defines three types of negative thoughts, explains where they come from, and shows a list of coping skills. Some of the strategies found on the handout include exercising, meditating, and spending time with a pet or taking a walk in nature. Using these coping skills helps kids and teens take charge of their thinking and keep their emotional well-being intact when facing worries. For example, if they listen to music when feeling overwhelmed, they can distract themselves healthily, which allows them to take a break from wrong thoughts and feel calmer. To further take charge of their thoughts, kids and teens can consider using the Letting Go of Anxious Thoughts worksheet. This worksheet prompts them to write down their worries in balloons and release them while practicing positive self-talk. *This item is an instant digital download.

Coping statements are positive thoughts based on reality, designed to stop negative thoughts that may be linked to anxiety. These thoughts won’t eliminate all fears, worries, and stress, but they can stabilize and balance intense feelings, especially for young minds navigating emotions and uncertainties. The Anxiety Coping Statements handout shows young people a list of positive affirmations they can use whenever they feel anxious. It includes statements like “Whatever I do today is enough” and “I give myself permission to take breaks." Using this handout not only helps kids and teens feel better about challenges but it also boosts their confidence and helps them deal with difficult emotions more healthily. For example, when trying a new hobby like learning to play an instrument, they can stay positive by repeating one of the phrases. Parents and teachers can turn this into an engaging activity by making catchy tunes using some of the statements. This technique also encourages easy recall of information. *This item is an instant digital download. A link to download your files will be emailed to you once payment is confirmed.
