THINGS TO REMEMBER TIME HAS A WAY OF HEALING Give your self permission to feel rotten now with the expectation that you will feel better later. Know you are reacting NORMALLY to an ABNORMAL event. Do not label yourself as crazy. THINGS TO TRY Strenuous physical exercise alternated with relaxation will often alleviate some physical reactions. Structure your time, keep busy, and keep your life as usual/normal as possible. Routine, Routine, Routine, .DO YOUR THING. TALK Talk to people, (family, friends, peers). Talk and leveling with others is the greatest healing medicine. Help people by sharing feelings and checking out how they are doing. SUPPORT Reach out to others. Spend time with people you trust. Take advantage of family and spiritual support systems. If after several weeks you find that the reactions or symptoms persist, consider individual Stress Reaction Counseling.  #$  | 67=G@STm˷맛oi h^-CJ h] h^-6B*CJ]phhfY456>*h^-56>* h^-CJ h^-CJh^-56CJ\] h^-CJh^-5>*CJ\h^-B*CJph3fh^-B*CJphh^-B*ph h^-5CJ h^-5CJ hfY45 h^-5 h^-CJh^-h^-B*CJ0ph)#$ }}}}$If7kdl$$Ifl4L,>+  4 lazf4$If7kd$$Ifl4L,>+   4 lazf4$If    % 7 J U m  ~xxxxxxxxxxxx$Ifkd$$Ifl r >"L,      4 laz  7 P e x   & E g w $If$If   - ; Q R xoo $$Ifa$kdv$$Ifl. r >"L,      4 laz$If   # < S r $If7kd$$Ifl4dL,>+  4 lazf4 {u=u4 $$Ifa$7kd$$$Ifl4L,>+  4 lazf4$Ifkd$$Ifl4r K#L,   q   4 lazf4?@ST,-;<"#() $$Ifa$$If7kd$$Ifl4L,>+  4 lazf4 $$Ifa$,-:;<W!"#()7+,UVýͽꪚ}h^-5B*CJ\phh^-B*CJph h^-CJh^-56>*B*CJ]phh^-6>*B*]ph h^-CJ h^-CJh^-B*CJphh^-6B*CJ]phh^-6CJ] h^-5CJ h^-CJh^- h^-5 h^-5\,UV$a$7kd$$Ifl4L,>+   4 lazf4 $Ifgd{$If $$Ifa$(/ =!h"h#h$% j$$Ifz!vh#v>+:V l45>+/  /  4azf4j$$Ifz!vh#v>+:V l45>+/  /  4azf4$$Ifz!vh#v#v #v #v #v :V l 55 5 5 5 /  /  4az$$Ifz!vh#v#v #v #v #v :V l. 55 5 5 5 /  /  4azj$$Ifz!vh#v>+:V l4d5>+/  /  4azf4$$Ifz!vh#v#v #v #vq #v :V l455 5 5q 5 /  /  4azf4j$$Ifz!vh#v>+:V l45>+/  /  4azf4j$$Ifz!vh#v>+:V l45>+/  /  4azf4j$$Ifz!vh#v>+:V l45>+/  /   4azf4666666666vvvvvvvvv666666>6666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666hH6666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666662 0@P`p2( 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p8XV~_HmH nH sH tH D`D NormalCJOJQJ_HmH sH tH B@B  Heading 1$$@&a$5CJ,>@>  Heading 2$@& 5>*CJD@D  Heading 3$$@&a$ 5>*CJ>@>  Heading 4$$@&a$5DA D Default Paragraph FontVi@V  Table Normal :V 44 la (k (No List 6U`6 Hyperlink >*B*phH@H s` Balloon TextCJOJQJ^JaJPK!pO[Content_Types].xmlj0Eжr(΢]yl#!MB;.n̨̽\A1&ҫ QWKvUbOX#&1`RT9<l#$>r `С-;c=1g'}ʅ$I1Ê9cY<;*v7'aE\h>=,*8;*4?±ԉoAߤ>82*<")QHxK |]Zz)ӁMSm@\&>!7;ɱʋ3װ1OC5VD Xa?p S4[NS28;Y[꫙,T1|n;+/ʕj\\,E:! t4.T̡ e1 }; [z^pl@ok0e g@GGHPXNT,مde|*YdT\Y䀰+(T7$ow2缂#G֛ʥ?q NK-/M,WgxFV/FQⷶO&ecx\QLW@H!+{[|{!KAi `cm2iU|Y+ ި [[vxrNE3pmR =Y04,!&0+WC܃@oOS2'Sٮ05$ɤ]pm3Ft GɄ-!y"ӉV . `עv,O.%вKasSƭvMz`3{9+e@eՔLy7W_XtlPK! ѐ'theme/theme/_rels/themeManager.xml.relsM 0wooӺ&݈Э5 6?$Q ,.aic21h:qm@RN;d`o7gK(M&$R(.1r'JЊT8V"AȻHu}|$b{P8g/]QAsم(#L[PK-!pO[Content_Types].xmlPK-!֧6 -_rels/.relsPK-!kytheme/theme/themeManager.xmlPK-!!Z!theme/theme/theme1.xmlPK-! ѐ'( theme/theme/_rels/themeManager.xml.relsPK]# (   8@0(   B S  ?
