How To Overcome PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder)

7. Get Healthy

Eating right, exercising regularly, and getting plenty of sleep at night are an important part of being able to respond to and develop coping techniques needed to beat PTSD. Lack of sleep and exercise coupled with a diet high in inflammatory foods may contribute to anxiety or feelings of restlessness. Try going to sleep an hour or two earlier at night and wake up early to fit in some exercise before starting the day. Sit down to eat a healthy breakfast and spend some time collecting thoughts or going over mental activities before heading out for the day.
