Grounding: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

When your thoughts are racing, bring your attention to what is around you.

  1. Name 5 things you can see.
  2. Name 4 things you can feel.
  3. Name 3 things you can hear.
  4. Name 2 things you can smell.
  5. Name 1 thing you can taste.

These are self-help tools, not treatment. If you feel unsafe or are thinking about hurting yourself, contact local emergency services right away. In the US you can call or text 988 at any time. Talking to a parent, coach, teacher or doctor is always okay.
