Early recognition of feelings of discrimination and inferiority are key to effectively coping with them. Talk to friends, family, and advisors who support your goals and values about how you feel; take measures for self-care such as getting enough sleep and exercising regularly; challenge negative thoughts by looking for evidence to the contrary; break complex tasks down into smaller, more manageable bits; set achievable goals, celebrate every successful effort along the way—these steps can facilitate recovery from any feelings of discrimination or inferiority.

There are many ways that one can effectively cope with feeling inferior and discrimination based on identity. Firstly, connecting with others who share a similar experience can offer helpful emotional support. Moreover, practicing self-care by taking breaks when needed and doing the things you enjoy help to ease stress. Additionally, having strong sense of purpose coupled with meaningful goals to work towards could serve as a great motivator as well as an effective outlet for dealing with emotions that arise due to discrimination and inequality. It is essential to recognize the unique difficulties faced by those in minority situations so that effective action may be taken against them.
